Abstract
- Introduction: Work satisfaction in the health context is important because its absence is associated with mental or psychosocial disorders and adversely affects the services provided, the well-being of the patient and also decrease the performance of the health system. Objective: To assess the association between the rurality index of the district where it is located the health institution and the work satisfaction in doctors and nurses working in these institutions in Peru. Methods: It was made a secondary analysis of the National Survey of Health Users Satisfaction, 2016. This survey was conducted to 5098 health professionals, 43.5% of them were physicians. Rurality was measured as population density (inhabitants/km2) of the district where the health facility is. To evaluate the association of interest, it was used a Poisson´s generalized linear model of the family to estimate crude and adjusted prevalence ratios. Results: The percentage of doctors and nurses with work satisfaction was 75.1% and 76.7%, respectively. Among the physicians no association was found between the rurality index and job satisfaction in the crude model (1.01 CI 95%: 0.96 1.05 to 1.05) nor the adjusted one (1,01 IC 95 %: 0.97 to 1.05). In nurses association was not found in the crude model (98 CI 95%: 0.95 to 1.00) nor in the adjusted one (0.97 IC 95 %: 0.93 to 1.00). An association was found between satisfaction with certain characteristics and the rurality index. Conclusions: There is evidence that there is no association between work satisfaction of health personnel and the rurality index of the district where the health facility is. Objetivos. Identificar la frecuencia de intención de migrar al interior del país y valorar la asociación entre el estrés percibido (EP) y la intención de migrar al interior del país (IMIP) en médicos y enfermeros que residían en Lima Metropolitana durante el 2015. Materiales y métodos. Análisis secundario de datos, empleando la Encuesta Nacional de Satisfacción de Usuarios en Salud (ENSUSALUD) del año 2015. Se incluyeron únicamente a aquellos profesionales que residían en Lima Metropolitana. Se definió como IMIP a aquellos que manifestaron su intención de trabajar en algún departamento diferente de Lima. Para medir el EP se empleó la Perceived stress scale de 14 preguntas, validada en español. Se empleó regresión logística para valorar la asociación planteada. La medida de asociación reportada fue el odds ratio (OR), con su intervalo de confianza al 95% (IC95%). Resultados. Se analizaron datos de 796 profesionales, de los cuales el 54,8% fueron enfermeros. La edad promedio fue de 45,2 años. El 4,9% (37) de los participantes tuvieron IMIP, de los cuales, el 64,9% (24) fueron enfermeros. En el análisis de regresión logística multivariado, se encontró asociación entre una mayor percepción de estrés con la IMIP (OR=1,31; IC95%:1,07-1,60). Conclusiones. La IMIP se presentó en uno de cada 20 profesionales y se asoció a un mayor EP en el personal de la salud estudiado
