Resumo

Introducción: Un número de experiencias paranormales aparecen relatadas por enfermeros que consisten en visiones del lecho de muerte y otros fenómenos anómalos. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el grado de ocurrencia de ciertas experiencias perceptuales inusuales en entornos hospitalarios, las denominadas Experiencias Anómalo/Paranormales con frecuencia reportadas por médicos y enfermeras en el ámbito hospitalario. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio transversal y analítico. Se administraron cinco escalas, Encuesta de Experiencias Anómalo/Paranormales para Enfermeras, Maslach Burnout Inventory, Tellegen Absorption Scale, Inventario Oxford-Liverpool de Sentimientos y Experiencias, y Test de Empatía Cognitivo Afectiva a 344 enfermeros de 36 hospitales y centros de salud de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Resultados: Las experiencias más comunes de las enfermeras son: sensación de presencia y/o apariciones, oír ruidos, voces o diálogos, llantos o quejas, experiencias intuitivas y extrasensoriales en relación con sus pacientes, o bien la recepción de esas experiencias por parte de sus propios pacientes, tales como experiencias cercanas a la muerte, prácticas de oración o intervenciones religiosas con sanaciones espontáneas, y otras experiencias anómalas relacionadas con niños. Discusión: Las enfermeras con experiencias también tendieron a mayor absorción, lo cual se confirmó; una tendencia a la esquizotipia y mayor empatía cognitiva y comprensión emocional que en enfermeras sin experiencias. Conclusiones: Aunque no se confirmó la hipótesis según la cual, enfermeras con experiencias tienden a experimentar mayor estrés laboral, sin embargo se encontró que las enfermeras con experiencias obtuvieron una puntuación más alta en el factor Despersonalización que las enfermeras sin experiencias
