Stress levels and related factors in primary care health professionals: an integrative review
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: To identify, based on evidence, stress levels and related factors in health professionals working in Primary Care. Methods: An integrative review was carried out, with the guiding question "What are the levels of stress and factors related to them in health professionals working in Primary Care?". The research took place in December 2022, in the databases: LILACS, MEDLINE, CINAHL and Scopus. Primary studies available in full in English, Portuguese and Spanish were included. Results: Of the 1,358 productions initially found, 14 texts were included as a sample. It was observed that professionals face different levels of stress in their daily
work. Stress can be related to physical and emotional exhaustion, dissatisfaction, overload and less engagement at work, longer working hours, female sex, work in the Covid-19 pandemic, organizational and communication problems. Conclusions: The evidence allows critical reflection on the need for greater concern and involvement on the part of the authorities and competent bodies with the health of workers, in order to direct actions that can intervene on risk factors in the work environment and minimize vulnerabilities caused by stress.
