Abstract: Introduction: Examination of the burnout syndrome in various healthcare fields has paramount importance for a better understanding of the disorder as well as for the establishment of a suitable preventive and intervention program. The surgical departments’ employees are at risk among healthcare workers, so it is our objective to further expand the knowledge on the characteristics of the burnout syndrome among the Hungarian surgical staff. Additionally, we compare the results obtained from the Department of Surgery at the University of Szeged with the results of the Department of Emergency Medicine. Aim: Aim of this study is to examine the burnout syndrome and its associations with different variables among the workers of the Department of Surgery at the University of Szeged, and to compare the data with a previous study conducted at the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Szeged. Method: Cross-sectional design utilizing a self-administrated questionnaire was used to collect data from the staff. Burnout was measured using the Maslach Burnout Inventory, while psychological immune competence was measured using the Psychological Immune Competence Questionnaire. Results: Based on statistical analysis, the number of weekly working hours and the number of somatic symptoms have a negative impact on burnout, while the greater number of high-quality social relationships and the stronger psychological immune competence have proven to be protective factors. Comparing the Department of Surgery and Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Szeged, we found a difference in the age of the workers, the number of years spent in the healthcare as well as the scores on the burnout depersonalization scale. Conclusions: The results obtained show further correlations and reveal protective and risk factors in burnout which can be a key to establishing preventive and intervention strategies.

Safety of healthcare workers in hospitals is a major concern during the COVID-19 pandemic. Being exposed for several working hours per day to infected patients, nurses dealing with COVID-19 face several issues that lead to physical/psychological breakdown. This study focused on burnout and its associated factors in nurses working in an Italian University Hospital during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic. We designed a web-based cross-sectional study addressed to nurses working at the University Hospital in Foggia, Italy. The online questionnaire was organized in sections aimed at collecting demographic and occupational variables, including the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OBI). Two hundred and ninety-three nurses agreed to participate. According to MBI, we reported moderate/high emotional exhaustion in 76.5%, depersonalization in 50.2%, and personal gratification in 54.6% of participants. COVID-19-related burnout measured by OBI resulted medium/high in 89.1% of participants. Among demographic and occupational factors, a multivariate regression analysis identified emotional support, consideration of leaving job, and workload as predictive of burnout in nurses. In conclusion, this study suggests that the improvement of employer and family support to nurses, as well as reduction of workload and job-related stress, would contribute to reducing burnout in nurses during COVID-19 pandemics.

Abstract Background Burnout is prevalent among medical students. Throughout their training, medical students face many psychosocial stresses that, if not managed, might cause burnout syndrome. Burnout could negatively impact students’ life and their academic performance. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of burnout among medical students at the College of Medicine, University of Kerbala, and assess factors associated with it. An analytic cross-sectional study. A sample of 424 students from all academic years from the College of Medicine, University of Kerbala, was approached. Data collection was conducted from June 11 to July 3, 2020, through a self-administered online questionnaire based on the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey (MBI-SS). The MBI-SS included 15 questions with a 7-point rating ranging from 0 (never) to 6 (always). The tool measures three subscales: emotional exhaustion (5 questions), Cynicism (4 questions), and professional efficacy (6 questions). Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) program version 24 was used for data analysis. Binary logistic regression was used to assess the association between burnout and students̓ variables, P value of a level < 0.05 considered statistically significant. Results The prevalence of burnout syndrome among medical students was 38.2%. About 85.6% of students had high emotional exhaustion, 77.8% had high cynicism, and 32.5% exhibited low professional efficacy. Female gender, regular use of legal substances, and family history of mental diseases were associated with significantly high rates of burnout. Conclusions Burnout is prevalent among medical students of the University of Kerbala with quite high levels of emotional exhaustion and cynicism and lower professional efficacy levels. Faculties of medicine need to consider burnout among their students and works to reduce unnecessary stresses by modifying and upgrading the educational and clinical environments.

OBJECTIVE To identify the prevalence of Burnout Syndrome in medical professionals, nurses and nursing technicians working in an Onco-Hematological Pediatric Hospital in São Paulo. METHOD An exploratory, descriptive study with cross-sectional design and quantitative approach, with a sample of 188 health professionals. Data were collected using two self-report instruments: the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS) which is a biosocial data form, and a non-participant observation guide. RESULTS High depersonalization for nurses (29.8%), low job performance for physicians (27.8%), and of nursing technicians (25.5%). High scores were identified in at least two domains of Burnout in 19.2% of nurses, 16.8% of nursing technicians, and 16.6% of doctors. CONCLUSION Health professionals are highly vulnerable to each of the dimensions of Burnout syndrome - namely emotional exhaustion, alienation, and low job performance/satisfaction- in the hospital work.

  Objetivo: El objetivo de nuestro estudio es analizar si el hecho de combinar los estudios universitarios y la Actividad Laboral Remunerada se asocia con el síndrome de burnout académico en los estudiantes de 1º curso de la Universidad de Vic-Universidad Central de Catalunya (UVic-UCC) y si existe una relación sobre el rendimiento académico. Metodología: Es un estudio observacional, transversal. La muestra comprende 301 estudiantes de 1º curso. Los instrumentos utilizados son una encuesta telemática y el Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey. Resultados: El 16,9% de los estudiantes presentan Burnout Académico. No se observan diferencias significativas según el sexo. El 33% de los estudiantes combinan actividad laboral remunerada y estudios. De estos, el 14,1% presentan Burnout Académico. No se observan diferencias significativas en el rendimiento académico entre los estudiantes que trabajan y estudian y los que solo estudian. Conclusión: Los estudiantes presentan burnout tanto sí trabajan como no. Al inicio del primer curso del grado, un tercio de los estudiantes combinaban sus estudios con el trabajo y no se aprecia un incremento de burnout académico. El rendimiento académico no se ve afectado por el hecho de combinar el trabajo y los estudios universitarios. Abstract. Goal. The aim of our study is to analyze whether combining university studies and professional work activity is associated with academic burnout syndrome in 1st year students at the University of Vic-Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) and the relationship on performance academic. Methodology. It is a non-experimental observational study of cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 301 1st year undergraduate students in the UVic-UCC. The instruments used consist of a telematic structured survey and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey questionnaire. Results. 16.9% of the students present academic burnout. No statistically significant differences were observed by sex. 33% of students have a remunerated job that they combine with their studies. Of these students, 14.1% have academic burnout. There are no significant differences in academic performance between students who work and study and those who only study. Conclusion: At the beginning of the first year of the university degree, a third of the students combined their studies with work.

Background:Christina Maslach and colleagues define burnout as a psychological syndrome in response to chronic interpersonal stressors on the job which is further characterized by its three dimensions of exhaustion, depersonalization, and a decreased sense of accomplishment. Burnout and stress are symptomatically similar, with burnout attributed specifically to occupational or academic stressors. Both can cause seriousconsequences on studenthealth, professionalism, and patient care. There are few studies evaluating the level of stress and burnoutsyndrome among medical students in Morocco.The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and levels of burnout syndrome to identify associated factors as well as the level of stress among a group of medical students in Morocco. Method: Our study was descriptive andcross-sectional. It focused on 5th grade level medical students and was carried out during the month of November 2014. Data was collected through a self-administered questionnaire based on volunteering. Results:The study was conducted in a total of 178 fifth-year medical students. The response rate was 97.2% (n = 173). The mean age was 22.2 years (SD = 0.87 years) with a female predominance (74%). The average daily working hours were 8.33 hours (SD= 2.74) and the average daily hours of sleep was 7 hours (SD= 1.1). The majority of students (96.5%) were single.The prevalence of burnout, based on Maslach Burnout Inventory, was 49% (n = 87) of students.The prevalence of high emotional exhaustion was 44%, high depersonalization was 33.3% and high burnout score for personal accomplishment accounted for 64 %.We found a positive correlation between the number of working hours and the burnout score (r = 0.341, p <0.001) as well as the stress score (r=0.3, p=0.009). We also found a negative correlation between the number of hours of sleep and the Burnout score (r = -0.215, p = 0.019).Clearly, this study provides an idea for necessity to plan specific interventions to reduce student stress and avoid burnout.

The Impact

Objective: The stressful college environment may cause Burnout Syndrome in nursing students, but few of them present stress resistance and do not show Burnout signs. Investigations that simultaneously assess these groups are limited. So, we assessed the impact of nursing students’ profile (biosocial and academic features) on the occurrence of Burnout Syndrome and Hardiness Personality.Methods: Cross-sectional, analytic and quantitative study. We applied a biosocial and academic form, the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the Hardiness Scale in 570 Brazilian nursing students. Logistic and linear regression analysis were used to assess the impact of biosocial and academic features on Burnout and Hardiness. The Ethics Research Committee at the University approved this project under protocol No. 0380.0.243.000-10.Results: Interest of keeping enrolled in course, sedentary lifestyle, semester and number of disciplines taken by students significantly contributed to increase the Burnout scores. Age, absence of children, living with family, dissatisfaction with nursing course and the unemployment significantly increased Hardiness scores. The variable “academic load” contributed to both phenomena.Conclusions: While biosocial features strength the hardy components in nursing students, protecting them from negative stress outcomes, nursing training characteristics seem negatively impact on student’s health. Thus, identifying the factors that contribute to stress resistance and those that may increase the risk of Burnout, will support interventions that to promote Hardy personality and prevent Burnout in academic environment.

Background Resident physicians in Sudan suffer multiple physical and psychological stressors. Nevertheless, the prevalence of burnout among this critical population remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of burnout and its related factors in a sample of Sudanese resident physicians. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used to assess burnout among resident physicians at the teaching hospitals of Wad-Medani, Gezira state in Sudan. All resident physicians across nine hospitals were asked to join the study. The Arabic version of Maslach Burnout Inventory was distributed to respondents from July to October 2021. Results: Out of 300 resident physicians 69.3% responded. The study population had a mean age of 29.99 years, more than half were females (56.7%) and single (59.6%). In total, 86.1% met the criteria for burnout in at least one dimension, and 13.9 % in all three dimensions.70.7% suffer from a high level of burnout on the dimension of emotional exhaustion (EE), while 44.2% reported a high level on depersonalization (DP) and 73.1% experienced a sense of decreased professional accomplishment (PA). There were significant differences in the levels of burnout, EE and DP among different specialties. Burnout syndrome was associated with working hours per single duty; with participants working for more than 24 hours had experienced higher levels of burnout, EE and DP. Conclusions: High prevalence of burnout syndrome was found in this sample of resident physicians in Sudan. Stakeholders should urgently implement effective remedies to protect the mental health of resident physicians.

Burnout syndrome is common among healthcare professions, including resident physicians. We aimed to assess the prevalence of burnout among resident physicians in Jordan, and a secondary aim was to evaluate the risk factors associated with the development of burnout syndrome in those residents, including gender, working hours, psychological distress, training sector, and specialty. In this cross-sectional study, 481 residents were recruited utilizing multistage stratified sampling to represent the four major health sectors in Jordan. Data were collected using an online questionnaire, where the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) was used to assess the prevalence of burnout. The prevalence, group differences, and predictors of burnout were statistically analyzed using STATA 15. Overall, 373 (77.5%) residents were found to have burnout. Factors associated with higher levels of burnout were psychological stress (β = 2.34, CI = [1.88–2.81]), longer working hours (β = 4.07, CI = [0.52–7.62], for 51–75 h a week, β = 7.27, CI = [2.86–11.69], for 76–100 h a week and β = 7.27, CI = [0.06–14.49], for >100 h a week), and obstetrics/gynecology residents (β = 9.66, CI = [3.59–15.73]). Conversely, medical sub-specialty residents, as well as private and university hospital residents, had lower burnout levels. We concluded that decreasing the workload on residents, offering psychological counseling, and promoting a safety culture for residents might help in mitigating burnout consequences.

Abstract Background Work stress is associated with a wide range of mental and physical symptoms and presents a challenge in public health. In this study, we highlighted burnout syndrome and musculoskeletal pain. The main goal was to test the efficacy of an intervention based on compensatory workplace exercises in the reduction of burnout levels and musculoskeletal pain. The questions were: 1) How high are the levels of burnout and musculoskeletal pain before the intervention? 2) Does the intervention contribute to reduce the levels of burnout and musculoskeletal pain? Methods This study was conducted in a hospital and employed a pre pos-test design using the following measures: Maslach Burnout Inventory - General Survey and the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire. The participants are 49 administrative employees, 61.2% females with a mean age of 38.3 years (SD = 11.6). The intervention program consisted of 18 sessions of compensatory workplace exercises, held for five weeks, with a frequency of three sessions per week. Results In relation to burnout, the results obtained before the intervention (mean values) suggest moderate Exhaustion (2.50±0.94), higher Cynicism (3.27±0.92) and lower Professional Efficacy (1.81±0.41). Concerning musculoskeletal pain, it was more prevalent in the shoulders (69.4%) and back (upper 67.3% and lower 65.3%), followed by the thighs and neck (both 61.2%). After intervention, the results showed a significant (p &lt; 0.05) decrease of burnout and all musculoskeletal symptoms evaluated. Conclusions The results support the effectiveness of the compensatory workplace exercises in the reduction of burnout and musculoskeletal symptoms contributing to mental and physical health of the workers involved. This study was innovative due to the studied link between burnout and compensatory workplace exercises. Moreover, this study led to changes in the hospital, which implemented better practices for a healthier life of the workers. Key messages The intervention based on compensatory workplace exercises reduced burnout and musculoskeletal pain in a sample of administrative employees and had impact in the health policies of the hospital. The implemented intervention promoted workers' physical and mental health and led to better health practices in the hospital.
