The results were as follows:
The mean score of degree of stress perceived by nurses was 2.70 and degree of stress perceived by hospital organization and administration was ranked the highest, followed by ranking nursing action in hospital, hospital environment and personal relationship.
The stress factor perceived by nurses according to items was insufficient staff for the patients in the highest rank and followed by ranking night shift, accident in, nursing action and lots of patients for the number of beds.
There were significant differences between degree of perceived stress and age, marital status and working duration by general characteristics and in items of stress factor.
The mean score of degree of nursing practice was 2.30, and degree of environmental care among the 4 nursing areas was ranked in the highest and followed by ranking of educational, physical and sociopsychological care.
Among 24 detailed items, "applying to aseptic technique" was the highest rank and followed by ranking "about NPO" and "prevention of accident and other trauma".
There were significant differences between degree of nursing practice for educational care and age in general characteristics, sociopsychological care and marital status and between degree of nursing practice for physical care and working duration.
The degree of physical stress by nurses showed higher negative correlation with the degree of nursing practice (-0.5101) and environmental factor among 4 stress factors showed the highest correlations with degree of nursing practice (-0.4463).
