Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly infectious disease with a long incubation period caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) . Since then, the virus has spread rapidly inside and outside China, becoming a global health emergency.The efforts and dedication of Chinese nurses have been instrumental in the effective containment of COVID-19 . During the COVID-19 pandemic, the risk to nurses' mental health increased rapidly. The COVID-19 pandemic is not only related to physical health, but also to mental health, sleep problems, depression, burnout and traumatic stress. Healthcare workers are at a high risk of burnout, which is closely related to quality of care and patient safety.We conducted a study on the current status and correlation of post-traumatic stress fatigue, coherence, and work safety attitudes among Chinese nurses after COVID-19 in 2019.A literature search revealed that published evidence has focused on determining the level of stress in HCWs in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.However, there is less research on the relationship between Burnout, Sense of Coherence and Job Safety Attitudes among nurses experiencing frontline work on the outbreak after re-entering the workforce following the New Crown Pneumonia pandemic.
