Abstract (Swedish)
Bakgrund: Akutsjukvården präglas av hög arbetsbelastning, tidsbrist och begränsade resurser, vilket skapade en spänd arbetsmiljö för sjuksköterskor. Krav-Kontroll-stödmodellen beskriver hur kombinationen av arbetskrav, kontroll och socialt stöd påverkar balans eller obalans, medan coping och resiliens är återhämtningsförmågor som påverkar sjuksköterskan att hantera påfrestningar.
Syfte: Sjuksköterskors upplevelser av arbetsrelaterade påfrestningar och hur dessa hanterades inom akutsjukvården.
Metod: En systematiskt litteraturstudie av kvalitativa studier genomfördes. Sökningar gjordes i databaserna PubMed och CINAHL med stöd av PEO-modellen. De inkluderade elva artiklarna analyserades genom en beskrivande metasyntes.
Resultat: Studien... (More)

Metod: En systematiskt litteraturstudie av kvalitativa studier genomfördes. Sökningar gjordes i databaserna PubMed och CINAHL med stöd av PEO-modellen. De inkluderade elva artiklarna analyserades genom en beskrivande metasyntes.
Resultat: Studien baserades på elva vetenskapliga artiklar. Två övergripande huvudteman identifierades, Påfrestningar och Hantering samt sju Subtema: Vårdmiljö, Orimliga krav, Känsloreglering, Undvikande hantering och Anpassning.
Slutsats: Resultaten visade att höga krav, låg kontroll och brist på stöd ökade risken för stress och ohälsa hos akutsjuksköterskor, medan socialt stöd och delaktighet kan minska stress och stärka kontrollen. Framtida forskning bör undersöka hur ledarskap och arbetsrutiner kan stärka resiliens och hanteringsstrategier för att skapa långsiktigt hållbara arbetsmiljöer. (Less)
Abstract
Background: Emergency care is characterized by high workload, time constraints, and limited resources, which create a tense work environment for nurses. The Job Demand–Control–Support model describes how the combination of job demands, control, and social support affects balance or imbalance, while coping and resilience are recovery abilities that influence the nurse’s capacity to handle stressors.
Aim: To explore nurses’ experiences of work-related stressors and how these were managed within emergency care.
Method: A systematic literature review of qualitative studies was conducted. Searches were performed in the PubMed and CINAHL databases using the PEO model as a framework. The eleven included articles were analyzed through a... (More)

Aim: To explore nurses’ experiences of work-related stressors and how these were managed within emergency care.
Method: A systematic literature review of qualitative studies was conducted. Searches were performed in the PubMed and CINAHL databases using the PEO model as a framework. The eleven included articles were analyzed through a descriptive metasynthesis.
Results: The study was based on eleven scientific articles. Two overarching main themes were identified—Stressors and Coping—along with seven subthemes: Work environment, Unreasonable demands, Emotional regulation, Avoidant coping, and Adaptation.
Conclusion: The results showed that high demands, low control, and lack of support increased the risk of stress and ill health among emergency nurses, while social support and participation could reduce stress and strengthen a sense of control. Future research should explore how leadership and work routines can enhance resilience and coping strategies to create sustainable work environments in the long term. (Less)
