title: Research in intensive care nursing.
abstract: The results of a questionnaire study about intensive care nursing in Finland indicate that the chief problems in intensive care nursing are concerned with staff coping resources, quality development and patient experiences. Questions on staff stress and coping have been researched quite extensively. Earlier studies have described intensive care nursing as highly stressful and pointed to numerous problems related to coping. It is clear that intensive care nursing warrants closer attention in research.
