Abstract Aim This study aims to examine the influence of single and double‐shift work schedules on hand function cognitive capacities, specifically working memory, attention, response time in nurses. Background Shift work, particularly extended formats, is known affect various physical functions critical nursing duties. Understanding these impacts vital for managing nurse minimize health risks maximize performance. Introduction With an increase demands healthcare systems, nurses often endure prolonged hours, which may impair their manual abilities, thereby affecting patient care quality. Methods involved 45 aged 20–40 years from shift‐oriented units providing direct care. Hand was assessed using Nine‐Hole Peg Test (9‐HPT). Cognitive such as were evaluated digit span task Stroop test, respectively. Two‐way analysis variance (ANOVA) used statistical analysis, assessing interactions shift type, with a significance level set at p < 0.05. Results or findings The results revealed significant changes all tested variables between pre‐ post‐shift assessments conditions. Notably, significantly exacerbated declines measured functions. Discussion These suggest that double shifts intensify deterioration essential skills, potentially compromising Conclusion implications and/or policy underscores detrimental effects nurses' insights should guide institutions revising scheduling practices safeguard well‐being maintain high standards

Abstract Background Nurses face significant risks of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), which adversely affects workplace safety and productivity. Yet, the extent EDS in this workforce remains inadequately characterized. Aim The aims systematic review were to assess pooled prevalence among nurses. Methodology We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, ISI Web Science for observational studies reporting EDS, as measured by Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), from database inception May 1, 2024, with no language restrictions. Study quality was evaluated using JBI's critical appraisal tool. Pooled estimates calculated through random‐effects meta‐analysis, subgroup meta‐regression analyses assessing associations between study‐level factors. Linear regression modeling used time trends. This study registered PROSPERO (CRD42024535109). Results included 36 unique encompassing 2677 nurses 20 countries. occurred 14.0%–55.6% results meta‐analysis showed a 32.2% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 28.5–36.1; I 2 = 92.6). Prevalence estimate did not vary substantially terms data (i.e., region, country income, pre/post covid era, hospital type, proportion female nurse, average nursing experience, or married nurses). has remained unchanged over time. Conclusions identifies high global nurses, affecting nearly one‐third workforce. findings underscore urgent need targeted interventions mitigate across diverse geographic economic contexts. Implication policy highlights pervasive issue worldwide, necessitating comprehensive strategies address challenge all regions, income levels, settings, demographic groups.
