Resumo: Objective: To compare and analyze different existing compassion fatigue (CF) scales, and to test reliability and validity to find out a more suitable evaluation tool of CF for Chinese front-line medical staff. Method: With a sample of 252 Chinese clinicians (doctors and nurses), this study compared the validation of the two most used CF scales, Compassion Fatigue Short Scale (CF-Short Scale) and Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQOL) in Chinese healthcare setting. Exploratory factor analysis, correlation analysis, and Cronbach's α were employed to examine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the CF scale by front-line clinical nurses and doctors. Lastly, One-way ANOVA test was conducted to examine and compare the CF scores of the medical staff with different characteristics. Finding: The Compassion Fatigue Short Scale included two factors, explaining totally 64.273％of the total variance, and Cronbach's α of C-CF Short Scale = 0.918, Job Burnout (JB) = 0.892, and Secondary Trauma (ST) = 0.909. The ProQOL (C-ProQOL) Scale also had a good internal consistency, with Cronbach's α of Compassion Satisfaction (CS) = 0.925, Secondary Trauma (ST) = 0.925, and Burnout (BO)= 0.705. However, the construct validity of C-ProQOL Scale was unsatisfactory with some problematic items. The CF scores among medical staff was at a medium level and differed significantly by the number of hours worked, the number of night shifts, and other characteristics of the medical staff. Conclusion: The C-CF Short Scale has better applicability that can be used as a reliable CF measurement for Chinese medical staff.

Metodologia: Com uma amostra de 252 clínicos chineses (médicos e enfermeiros), este estudo comparou a validação das duas escalas CF mais utilizadas, a CF-Short Scale e a ProQOL Scale no contexto dos cuidados de saúde chineses. Análise exploratória dos factores, análise de correlação, e Cronbach's α were utilizado para examinar a fiabilidade e validade da versão chinesa da escala CF por enfermeiros clínicos e médicos da linha da frente. Por último, foi realizado o teste ANOVA unidireccional para examinar e comparar os resultados da CF do pessoal médico com características diferentes. Encontrar: A Escala Curta de Fadiga de Compaixão incluiu dois factores, explicando totalmente 64.273％of a variação total, e Cronbach's α da Escala Curta de C-CF = 0,918, Job Burnout (JB) = 0,892, e Secondary Trauma (ST) = 0,909. A Balança C-ProQOL também tinha uma boa consistência interna, com Cronbach's α de Compassion Satisfaction (CS) = 0,925, ST = 0,925, e Burnout(BO)= 0,705. No entanto, a validade de construção da Escala C-ProQOL foi insatisfatória com alguns itens problemáticos. A pontuação da CF entre o pessoal médico era de nível médio e diferia significativamente pelo número de horas trabalhadas, o número de turnos nocturnos, e outras características do pessoal médico. Conclusão: A C-CF Short Scale tem melhor aplicabilidade que pode ser usada como uma medição CF fiável para o pessoal médico chinês.2022-10-04T00:00:00Z2021-11-24T00:00:00Z2021-11-242021-09info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/24845TID:202803732engYutong Zhanginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:55:00Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/24845Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:27:54.956149Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
