Occupational stress and its related demographic factors among Iranian CCU nurses: a cross-sectional study.

In this cross-sectional study, 155 CCU nurses were randomly selected. The Osipow Occupational Stress Questionnaire was used as data collection tool. The mean of nurses' occupational stress was 210.13 ± 40.87 out of 300, which was at the "moderate-to-high" level. The highest mean of occupational stress was related to the subscale of "Role Overload" (36.30 ± 6.98) and the lowest mean was related to the subscale of "Physical Environment" (33.58 ± 9.76). There was no statistically significant difference between the mean occupational stress and variables of sex, age, academic degree and working experience.
