Abstract
PDF Objectives To evaluate the relationship between self-efficacy, general health and burnout of the staff at Shahroud University of Medical Sciences.
Methods In 2015, 249 staff at Shahroud University of Medical Sciences (from a total reference population of 520 staff members) were selected through stratified random sampling. To collect the data, Sherer self-efficacy Scale, General Health Questionnaire and Maslach Burnout Inventory were used. The collected data were analyzed through ANOVA, Pearson correlation and Chi-square tests using SPSS 16. The relationship between self-efficacy, general health and burnout (latent factors) were studied using structural equation modeling with Stata 14.
Results The mean age of participants was 36.97 ± 7.60 years, and the mean number of years work experience was 12.29 ± 7.57. The mean scores of general health, self-efficacy and burnout were 28.24 ± 11.14, 62.30 ± 9.21 and 81.67 ± 22.18, respectively. The results of the study showed a statistically significant relationship between self-efficacy and general health which equals −0.32. A statistically significant relationship also existed between burnout scores and general health scores (beta = 0.78).
Conclusion The results showed that high self-efficacy improves the general health of employees at the Shahroud University of Medical Sciences and reduces burnout. Special attention should be paid to self-efficacy in the prevention of burnout.

Abstract
PDF
Objectives Staphylococcus aureus is a nosocomial pathogen that provides a major challenge in the healthcare environment, especially in burns units where patients are particularly susceptible to infections. In this study, we sought to determine molecular types ofS. aureus isolates collected from burns patients, based on staphylococcal protein A and coagulase gene polymorphisms.Methods Antibiotic susceptibility testing of 89
S. aureus strains isolated from burn wounds of patients was assessed using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. Strains were characterized byspa typing,coa typing, and resistance and toxin gene profiling.Results A total of 12 different
spa types were identified with the majority being t790 (18%). Panton-Valentine leucocidin encoding genes were identified inspa types t044 (5.6%), t852 (2.2%) and t008 (2.2%). The most commonly detected antibiotic resistance gene wasant (4′)-Ia (60.7%). Ten differentcoa types were detected and the majority of the tested isolates belonged tocoa III (47.2%). All the high-level mupirocin-resistant and low-level mupirocin resistant strains belonged tocoa type III.Conclusion The present study illustrated that despite the high frequency of
coa III andspa t790 types, the genetic background ofS. aureus strains in Iranian burns patients was diverse. The findings obtained are valuable in creating awareness ofS. aureus infections within burns units.-
