Resumen

Objetivo: analizar la asociación entre satisfacción por compasión y fatiga por compasión con factores sociodemográficos y laborales en profesionales de enfermería. Método: estudio analítico transversal, de agosto hasta diciembre de 2023 con 95 profesionales de enfermería hospitalarios del Centro-Oeste de Brasil, utilizando la Escala de Calidad de Vida Profesional. Se analizaron datos con pruebas t, ANOVA y regresión lineal múltiple. Consideraciones éticas respetadas. Resultados: hay alta satisfacción por la compasión (>42 puntos) y niveles moderados de fatiga por compasión (>23 puntos). Tempo de formación de hasta cinco años y ingreso familiar entre R$6.000 y R$15.000 se asociaron con menor satisfacción por compasión (varianza=11,7%; p=0,006); ser enfermero y tener percepción negativa o buena/regular de las condiciones laborales se asociaron con mayor fatiga por compasión (varianza=10,9%; p=0,009). Conclusión: hay niveles adecuados de calidad de vida profesional, con alta satisfacción por compasión y niveles moderados de fatiga por compasión. Reducciones en la satisfacción por compasión y aumentos en fatiga por compasión se asociaron con variables sociodemográficas y laborales.
