The Effects of frequently rotating shiftwork on sleep and the family life of hospital nurses / Norio Kurumatani... [et al.]
Sumario: In Japan, hospital nurses have worked in a frequently rotating three-shift system for more than 30 years. Although a permanent day shift has been adopted for the outpatient clinics, permanent shifts have not been generally accepted in the wards for in-patients.
