dc.description.abstractObjectives: Emergency services are patient circulation units that require chaos, trauma, and high tension. It was aimed to determine the moral distress levels of pediatric nurses in pediatric emergency and emergency departments and relevant factors.Methods: This study is a descriptive and cross-sectional study. It consists of 255 nurses with their data. The Participant Information Form and the Moral Distress Scale-Revised for Pediatric Nurses (MDS-R) were used to collect data.Results: In the study, the mean score of MDS-R frequency was found to be 27.36 +/- 13.16, the mean score of MDS-R intensity to be 37.65 +/- 17.53, and the mean total score of MDS-R to be 58.96 +/- 39.40. It was determined that 93.7% of the nurses received training on moral distress, and education level was effective on moral distress levels of the nurses. The nurses working in the pediatric emergency service had higher moral distress levels than the nurses serving pediatric patients in the emergency department (P(total MDS-R) = 0.02, P(frequency of MDS-R) = 0.008). Job satisfaction ( P(total MDS-R) = 0.003, P(frequency of MDS-R) < 0.001, P(intensity of MDS-R) < 0.001) and frequency of thinking about changing working unit ( P(frequency of MDS-R) = 0.02, P(intensityof MDS-R) = 0.01) were found to be effective on the level of moral distress. It was determined that the type of emergency service, the working time in the emergency service, and the level of job satisfaction significantly affected the total moral distress scores of the nurses ( P < 0.001, R-2 = 0.09).Conclusions: It was found in the study that nurses had low levels of moral distress; however, many factors relevant to working conditions were associated with moral distress. The pediatric emergency service nurses were determined to experience a higher moral distress compared with the emergency department nurses serving pediatric patients.en_US
