Abstract

Exploring the relationship between clinical nurses' attitudes and role perceptions regarding the suspension of life-sustaining treatment and nursing burnout, a descriptive survey involved 199 nurses at E University Medical Center in Seoul. Data included attitudes toward life sustaining treatment suspension, role perception, and nursing burnout, collected online and analyzed through SPSS 28.0. Findings revealed a significant negative correlation between nursing burnout and attitudes toward suspension (r=-.269, p<.001) and role perception concerning life-sustaining treatment suspension (r=-.200, p=.005). Regression analysis highlighted attitudes toward life-sustaining treatment suspension (β=-.190, p<.01) and gender (female) (β=.220, p<.001) as factors impacting nursing burnout, explaining 11.7% of the variance (F=9.75, p<.001). To address nursing burnout in this context, establishing clear nursing roles in decision-making and implementing systematic education is crucial. Develop intervention programs to enhance coping strategies for nursing burnout.
