Summary
AI-generated from the abstractA systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found that mindfulness-based interventions improve burnout, resilience, and sleep quality among nurses. The interventions led to reductions in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and increases in personal accomplishment and resilience, with moderate to large effect sizes. Improvements in sleep quality were also observed. The evidence suggests that these programs can be effective tools for supporting nurse well-being, though the authors note that further high-quality research is needed to strengthen confidence in the findings.
