The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)posed an unprecedented threat to health care providers(HCPs)in Wuhan,China,especially for nurses who were frequently exposed to infected or suspected patients.Limited information was available about the working experience of nurses in fighting against the pandemic.To learn the physical and psychological responses of nurses during the pandemic and explore the potential determinants,we conducted a large-scale survey in Wuhan.This multicenter cross-sectional study enrolled 5521 nurses who worked in designated hospitals,mobile cabins,or shelters during the pandemic.A structured online questionnaire was distributed to assess the physical discomforts,emotional distress and cognitive reactions of nurses at work,and the log-binomial regression analysis was performed to explore potential determinants.A considerable proportion of nurses had symptoms of physical discomforts[3677(66.6％)]and emotional distress[4721(85.5％)].Nurses who were directly involved in the care of patients(i.e.,care for severe patients:RR,2.35;95％CI,1.95-2.84),with irregular work schedules(RR,2.36;95％CI,1.95-2.87),and working overtime(RR,1.34;95％CI,1.08-1.65)were at a higher risk for physical discomforts.Nurses who were directly involved in the care of patients(i.e.,care for severe patients:RR,1.78;95％CI,1.40-2.29),with irregular work schedules(RR,3.39;95％CI,2.43-4.73),and working overtime(RR,1.51;95％CI,1.12-2.04)were at a higher risk for emotional distress.Therefore,formulating reasonable work schedules and improving workforce systems are necessary to alleviate the physical and emotional distress of nurses during the pandemic.
