The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the personal characteristics and work characteristics of shift nurses and occupational burnout, sleep quality and physical and mental health. Use " acupressure " as an intervention to compare the status of shift nurses before and after intervention and to track after interventional therapy, 1, 2, and 3 months of longitudinal results. Use the "Smart Care VIP bracelet" to detect physical and mental conditions (psychological stress, physical fatigue) to assess the applicability of the Smart Care VIP bracelet as a "Shift Care Staff Sleep Quality, Physical and Mental Health and Occupational Burnout Management System" and evaluate effectiveness, and establishment of an effective management system.
Most studies in China have shown that the use of acupressure to improve the sleep quality of nursing staff generally has its efficacy, but the lack of research at proves that acupressure is used by nursing staff to improve sleep quality and improve occupational burnout. It is expected to be from May to December 2020. The nursing staff of a medical center in Taipei will be selected for stratified sampling. The conditions for receiving the case are shift nurses who have served in the institution for more than one year. Subjective sleep is assessed using Epworth sleepiness scale. The objective part is to use the "Smart Care VIP Bracelet" to measure sleep time; Chinese version of the Chinese Health Questionnaire-12 (CHQ-12) and occupational burnout scale questionnaire as a tool for discussion. It is planned to randomly assign shift nurses to 42 acupressure groups and control group (sham), and use activity record (Smart Care VIP bracelet) to monitor and record fatigue Index and stress changes.

| sleep quality | Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS)Epworth sleepiness Scale - Taiwan form (ESS-T): .The internal consistency of the scale Cronbach's α = .81, and then measured the reliability r = .74, p = .001. .The evaluation of the degree of drowsiness is expressed as a score of zero (never occurred) to three (almost all), with a total of 24 points. The higher the total score, the more severe the level of drowsiness. A zero score indicates the best situation. | 3 months |
| Physical and Mental Health | Chinese Health Questionnaire-12 (CHQ-12): The reliability and validity of Cronbach'α was 0.83-0.92 (Cheng et al., 1990) CHQ-12 has 12 questions in total, two of which are positive. Ten questions of which are negative. It is a self-reported four-point scale. It is score from 0-0-1-1, with a total score of 12 points. | 3 months |

The four subscales in the scale include personal burnout (5 questions), work burnout (5 questions), overwork (5 questions) and client burnout (6 questions). The Cronbach'α of the scale is above 0.84, and the scale has good construction validity and standard validity (Chang et al., 2007; Tseng, & Cheng, 2002; Yeh, Cheng, Chen, & Chiu, 2008). | 3 months |

| Heart Rate Variability, HRV -「Smart Care VIP Bracelet Watch」 | The "Smart Care VIP Bracelet Watch" worn on the subject's wrist for HRV monitoring to record changes in the individual's physical activity. The contents of the record include the total daily sleep time (hours), waking time (minutes), number of waking, physical and mental index (mental stress, physical burnout) and other data for each case. To obtain the heart rate variability index directly, which represents the low frequency (LF) (%) of the sympathetic nerve activity index. High frequency power (HF) (%) representing the parasympathetic nerve activity index, and low frequency / high frequency power ratio (LF / HF) representing the sympathetic / parasympathetic balance index. |
