Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • The impact of mindfulness-based mobile device assistance program on the care stress of emergency nursing staff caring for COVID-19 patients

    This study uses the "Nursing Stress Questionnaire under the COVID-19 Epidemic" as a measure of caregiving stress. The content includes five major aspects: worries about social isolation (10 questions), discomfort caused by protective equipment (8 questions), and infection control. Difficulties and anxiety (7 questions), burden of caring for patients (7 questions), and policy pressure (8 questions). The scoring method adopts a four-point Likert scale, ranging from no pressure (0 points) to severe pressure (3 points), a total of 40 questions, with a total score of 0-120 points. The higher the score, the greater the caregiving pressure.emergency nurses caring for COVID-19 patients

  • Effects of mindfulness-based mobile device assistance program on psychological distress among emergency nursing staff caring for COVID-19 patients

    This study used the "Short Form Health Scale" to measure the degree of psychological distress among caregivers caring for COVID-19 patients. There are five questions in the questionnaire, and the scoring method adopts a five-point Likert scale, ranging from not at all (0 points) to very good (4 points), with a total score of 0-20 points. The grading method is: a total score ≤ 5 is within the normal range, indicating good physical and mental adaptation; 6-9 is considered mild emotional distress; 10-14 is considered moderate emotional distress; and a score of 15 or above is severe emotional distress.

  • Effects of a mindfulness-based mobile device-assisted program on compassion fatigue among emergency nursing staff caring for COVID-19 patients

    The amount of compassion fatigue is measured using 23 questions of the Compassion Fatigue Self Test (CFST) developed by Figley (1995). Compassion fatigue is graded. Scores below 30 are classified as low risk; scores between 31 and 35 are classified as low risk. Medium risk; 36-40 is considered high risk; above 41 is considered extremely high risk

Study Arms (2)

mindfulness-based mobile applications program

EXPERIMENTAL

mindfulness-based mobile applications program. There are five audio files, listen to one audio file for two days.

Device: mindfulness-based mobile applications program

NO intervention

NO INTERVENTION

The control group received no intervention, Scale exam was performed before and after the program in both groups at the same time.

Interventions

Every two days is the same practice sound file, which must be practiced in order, so each sound file will be locked, for example: 9/9, 9/10 listen to the first sound file practice, 9/11, 9/12 listen to the second Practice with two sound files... and so on. After two days, the sound files will be automatically unlocked, and the subjects can continue to practice. The first ten days need to be practiced in order. From the eleventh day, each sound file will be unlocked. You can choose an audio file to practice, and the page will record the time and items of the practice, and you can also use text to record your experience after the practice
