Development and validation of a machine learning-based predictive model for compassion fatigue in Chinese nursing interns: a cross-sectional study utilizing latent profile analysis

The XGBoosting classifier demonstrates excellent performance, and implementing the online tool can help nursing administrators manage compassion fatigue effectively. It holds practical value for nursing education and practice by supporting early detection and intervention. Future research should validate its use across settings, and longitudinal studies could assess its long-term impact.
