Abstract:

Objective To summarize and analyze the characteristics and core components of intervention strategies for new nurses’ transition shock，laying a foundation for nursing education and management in developing intervention programs. Methods Computerized searches were conducted in Chinese databases including CNKI，VIP，Wanfang，and SinoMed，as well as English databases such as PubMed，Web of Science，Embase，and CINAHL. The search period spanned from the inception of each database to October 2025. Two researchers screened the literature. Content extraction，integration，and analysis were performed using the Transition Shock theoretical model as a framework. Results A total of 14 articles were included，showcasing diverse intervention forms such as scenario simulation，mentorship，virtual reality technology，team coaching，and peer support. Core intervention components focused on the four dimensions of the transition shock theoretical model：knowledge，role，responsibility，and relationships，with intervention durations typically ranging from six months to one year. Outcome measures included transition shock levels，turnover intention/rate，stress levels，job competency，and career readiness. Conclusion Existing intervention strategies exhibit diversity and theoretical grounding. It is recommended to develop systematic，localized intervention programs using the transition shock theoretical model as a framework.
