Virtual Mindfulness and Breathing Training for Stress, Burnout, Sleep, and Cognition in Rotating-Shift Nurses

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a mobile- and virtual reality-based mindfulness and breathing intervention on stress, burnout, sleep quality, and cognitive function among Rotating-shift nurses. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: (1) health education control group, (2) mobile-based mindfulness only, (3) mobile-based mindfulness combined with brief structured breathing, and (4) virtual reality-assisted mindfulness combined with brief structured breathing. The intervention will last for 8 weeks, with participants practicing 5 times per week for 10 minutes per session. Primary outcomes include perceived stress, burnout levels, sleep quality, and cognitive function.
