الوصف: Objective: COVID-19 increased moral distress (MD) and moral injury (MI) among healthcare professionals (HCPs). The purpose of this study was to examine MD and MI among inpatient and outpatient HCPs during March of 2022.The study sought to examine (1) the relationship between MD and MI; (2) the relationship between MD/MI and pandemic-related burnout and resilience; and (3) the degree to which HCPs experienced pandemic-related MD and MI based on background characteristics.Methods: A survey was conducted to measure MD, MI, burnout, resilience, and intent to leave healthcare at two academic medical centers during a 4-week period. A convenience sample of 184 participants (physicians, nurses, residents, respiratory therapists, advanced practice providers) completed the survey. In this mixed-methods approach, researchers analyzed both quantitative and qualitative survey data and triangulated the findings.Results: A moderate association was found between MD and MI (r = .47, P < .001). Regression results indicated that burnout was significantly associated with both MD and MI (P = .02 and P < .001, respectively), while intent to leave was associated only with MD (P < .001). Qualitative results yielded eight sources of MD and MI: workload, distrust, lack of teamwork/collaboration, loss of connection, lack of leadership, futile care, outside stressors, and vulnerability.Conclusions: While interrelated conceptually, MD and MI should be viewed as distinct constructs. Many HCPs were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with MD and MI being experienced by those in all HCP categories. Understanding the sources of MD and MI among HCPs could help to improve well-being, work satisfaction, and the quality of patient care.
