Summary

Emergency nurses are frequently exposed to both traumatic events and routine work-related stressors due to the nature of emergency care settings. These experiences may have important emotional and psychological effects, which can influence nurses' well-being, job satisfaction, and quality of patient care.

The aim of this study is to examine the frequency and emotional impact of traumatic and routine stressors experienced by emergency department nurses during the past six months. The study focuses on identifying common stressors and understanding how often these events occur and how strongly they affect nurses emotionally.

This observational, cross-sectional study was conducted among emergency nurses working in public hospitals in Turkey. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that includes demographic questions and the Traumatic and Routine Stressors Scale (TRSS-TR), a validated instrument designed specifically for emergency nurses.

The findings of this study are expected to contribute to a better understanding of occupational stress among emergency nurses and to support the development of strategies aimed at protecting nurses' mental health and improving working conditions in emergency care environments.
