Background
It is important to recognize burnout symptoms among nurses, as it not only affects their wellbeing but can also compromise the quality of care they provide to patients. The aim of this study is to identify potential explanatory factors that help recognize nurse burnout.

Material and methods
Nurses working in hospital settings were invited to take part in an online survey in 2023. Measurements included demographics, physical health (health status, physical activity), emotional states of depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as communication between nurses and physicians. To find explanatory factors for nurse burnout symptoms, hierarchical regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 28.0 statistical software. The significance level was set at p-values ≤ .05.

Results
233 participants’ data were analyzed, with 27.53±10.21 years of work experience. The majority of participants (93%) were female. The average age was 47.22±8.93 years. There were three significant variables that contributed to burnout symptoms: distress, nurse-physician communication and physical activity. Overall, the final model explained 58% of the variance.

Conclusions
The results emphasize the significance of reducing distress, promoting healthy relationships between nurses and physicians, and encouraging physical activity as ways to lessen burnout among nurses. Since burnout among nurses doesn't dissipate naturally, it necessitates deliberate intervention.
