Annotated Bibliography

You will complete an annotated bibliography consisting of 5 references and an associated annotation for each reference. An annotation is typically a paragraph of (100-200) words and should include a summary or description of the content and its applicable findings.

Tasks

1. Create an annotated bibliography using the following guidelines:
   1. References should be in APA format.
   2. References should be in alphabetical order.
   3. Each annotation should be a new paragraph below its reference entry. Indent the entire annotation 0.5 in. from the left margin, the same as you would do for a block quotation. Do not indent the first line of the annotation.

• If the annotation spans multiple paragraphs, indent the first line of the second and any subsequent paragraphs an additional 0.5 in., the same as you would a block quotation with multiple paragraphs.

Aiken, L. H., Clarke, S. P., Sloane, D. M., Sochalski, J., & Silber, J. H. (2002). Hospital nurse staffing and patient mortality, nurse burnout, and job dissatisfaction. JAMA, 288(16), 1987-1993.

This study examines the relationship between nurse staffing levels, nurse burnout, and patient outcomes. Through empirical evidence, the authors demonstrate a link between nurse burnout and increased patient mortality rates, as well as job dissatisfaction among nurses. The findings underscore the importance of improving nurse work environments and reducing burnout to enhance both nurse and patient well-being.

Dyrbye, L. N., Thomas, M. R., & Shanafelt, T. D. (2006). Systematic review of depression, anxiety, and other indicators of psychological distress among U.S. and Canadian medical students. Academic Medicine, 81(4), 354-373.

This systematic review investigates the prevalence of psychological distress, including burnout, among medical students in the United States and Canada. The authors find high rates of depression, anxiety, and burnout among medical students, suggesting that these issues begin early in medical careers. They advocate for interventions aimed at promoting well-being and resilience among healthcare workers.

Maslach, C., & Jackson, S. E. (1981). The measurement of experienced burnout. Journal of Organizational Behavior, 2(2), 99-113.

In this seminal work, Maslach and Jackson introduce the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), a widely used measure of burnout. They define burnout as a psychological syndrome characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. The MBI assesses these dimensions, providing a comprehensive tool for measuring burnout in various organizational settings.

Orem, D. E. (2001). Nursing: Concepts of practice (6th ed.). Mosby.

Orem presents the Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory, which emphasizes the importance of self-care in nursing practice. This theory posits that individuals require nursing care when they are unable to meet self-care needs independently. Orem's framework provides a basis for interventions aimed at reducing burnout among nurses by promoting self-care practices.

Shanafelt, T. D., Bradley, K. A., Wipf, J. E., & Back, A. L. (2002). Burnout and self-reported patient care in an internal medicine residency program. Annals of Internal Medicine, 136(5), 358-367.

This study investigates the impact of burnout on self-reported patient care practices among medical residents. The authors find a correlation between burnout and suboptimal patient care, suggesting that burnout adversely affects patient care quality. They emphasize the importance of addressing burnout to improve patient outcomes in medical residency programs.
