- Nurse burnout is recognized in ICD-11 as emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced professional efficacy.
- The study aimed to quantify the effects of nurse-targeted interventions on burnout dimensions using Maslach's model and the Job Demands-Resources framework.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of 63 studies showed significant reductions in global burnout, especially in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization.
- Mindfulness and yoga programs were most effective in reducing exhaustion and depersonalization, while workshop-based approaches had smaller effects.
- The study recommends integrating digital mindfulness or gratitude-based micro-interventions into wellness platforms and adding team-level reflective structures.
- Future research should focus on head-to-head trials, cost-effectiveness, and long-term follow-up in resource-constrained settings.
