Salas-Bergüés V, Pereira-Sánchez M, Martín-Martín J, Olano-Lizarraga M. Development of burnout and moral distress in intensive care nurses: An integrative literature review. ENFERMERIA INTENSIVA 2024:S2529-9840(24)00027-2. [PMID: 39025685 DOI: 10.1016/j.enfie.2024.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
AIMS To describe, through an integrative literature review, the factors contributing to the development of burnout and moral distress in nursing professionals working in intensive care units and to identify the assessment tools used most frequently to assess burnout and moral distress. METHODS An integrative literature review was carried out. PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, SciELO, Dialnet, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were reviewed from January 2012 to February 2023. Additionally, snowball sampling was used. The results were analysed by using integrative synthesis, as proposed by Whittemore et al., the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme for literature reviews, the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines for quantitative observational studies, and the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist for qualitative research were used to evaluate evidence quality. RESULTS Forty-one articles were selected for review: 36 were cross-sectional descriptive articles, and five were literature reviews. The articles were grouped into five-factor categories: 1) personal factors, 2) organisational factors, 3) labour relations factors, 4) end-of-life care factors, and 5) factors related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey and the Moral Distress Survey-Revised instruments were the most commonly used to measure burnout and moral distress. CONCLUSIONS This review highlights the multiple personal, organisational, relational, situational, and end-of-life factors promoting burnout and moral distress among critical care nurses. Interventions in these areas are necessary to achieve nurses' job satisfaction and retention while improving nurses' quality of care.

Burnout syndrome among healthcare professionals in the Fako division, Cameroon: Impact of physical activity and sleep quality. AIMS Public Health 2023; 10:814-827. [PMID: 38187903 PMCID: PMC10764971 DOI: 10.3934/publichealth.2023054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives Burnout syndrome (BOS) is an affection mostly resulting from chronic job-related stress. Many studies have identified job-related and non-job-related factors associated with BOS. Our aim of this study was to assess the level of BOS in private and public hospital healthcare providers in Fako division, Cameroon and evaluate the impact of physical activity and sleep quality (SQ). Methods The study was carried out in five randomly selected hospitals in Fako Division over a three-month period. Consenting doctors, nurses and laboratory technicians were recruited using consecutive sampling methods. Sociodemographic and professional characteristics were collected using a structured questionnaire. BOS was assessed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS). Sleep quality (SQ) and physical activity (PA) were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) respectively. Odd ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated and a statistical significance was set for p-value < 0.05. Results The mean age was 32 ± 6 years and 70.9% female. BOS prevalence was 66.3% with 71.4% in females and 53.9% in males (p = 0.002). Of the 232 participants with BOS, 65.7%, 52% and 53.7% had moderate to high emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and decreased personal accomplishment, respectively. Moderate to high PA as well as poor SQ were not significantly associated with BOS while longer sleep duration (>8 h) was associated with a greater odd of BOS. Conclusions The prevalence of BOS was high among healthcare professionals. While PA showed no protective effects, high sleep duration could increase its risk.

Levels of burnout and exposure to ethical conflict and assessment of the practice environment in nursing professionals of intensive care. ENFERMERIA INTENSIVA 2023; 34:195-204. [PMID: 37455225 DOI: 10.1016/j.enfie.2023.02.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nursing professionals working in Intensive Care Units (ICU) are at high risk of developing negative emotional responses as well as emotional and spiritual problems related to ethical issues. The design of effective strategies that improve these aspects is determined by knowing the levels of burnout and ethical conflict of these professionals, as well as the influence that the practice environment might have on them. OBJECTIVES To analyze the relationship between levels of burnout, the exposure to ethical conflicts and the perception of the practice environment among themselves and with sociodemographic variables of the different intensive care nursing professionals. METHODS Descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional, observational study in an ICU of a tertiary level university hospital. The level of burnout was evaluated with the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey scale; the level of ethical conflict with the Ethical Conflict Questionnaire for Nurses and the perception of the environment with the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed. The association between categorical variables was analyzed using Fisher's exact chi-square test (χ2) RESULTS: 31 nurses and 8 nursing assistants were evaluated, which meant a participation rate of 82,93%. 31,10% of the nursing professionals presented signs of burnout, 14,89% considered that they work in an unfavorable environment and 87,23% presented a medium-high index of exposure to ethical conflict. The educational level (χ2=11.084, p=0.011) and the professional category (χ2=5.007, p=0.025) influenced the level of burnout: nursing assistants presented higher levels of this. When comparing the level of burnout with the environment and the index of ethical conflict, there were no statistically significant differences. CONCLUSIONS The absence of association found in the study between Burnout and ethical conflict with the perception of the practice environment suggests that personal factors may influence its development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increasing number of patients affected by organ failure can be treated with organ transplantation. The need for organs available for transplantation is critical and patients die while on the transplant list. Intensive care unit (ICU) nurses are essential in facilitating organ donation through their ceaseless bedside care for potential organ donors and their families. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to describe the challenges faced by ICU nurses in the organ donation process. DESIGN A descriptive qualitative study design was used. METHOD Semistructured individual interviews of 9 ICU nurses from 1 university hospital were performed. Data were analyzed using Malterud's systematic text condensation. RESULTS Three themes describe the core of the results: (1) practical tasks, (2) challenging care for the next of kin, and (3) ethical and emotional challenges. CONCLUSIONS Practical tasks represent challenges in the organ donation process that are not previously revealed. Actions to address these challenges should be prioritized to promote organ donation. Simulation-based training may optimize practical aspects of the organ donation process and implementation of simulation-based training should be assessed by future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between burn-out and spiritual health among medical doctors. DESIGN Systematic literature review and narrative synthesis of cross-sectional studies. SETTING Any setting, worldwide. DATA SOURCES Five databases were searched from inception to March 2022, including Medline, Embase, PsycINFO, Scopus and Web of Science. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Any study design that involved medical doctors (and other healthcare staff if assessed alongside medical doctors), that measured (in any way) both burn-out (or similar) and spiritual health (or similar) medical doctors. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS All records were double screened. Data extraction was performed by one reviewer and a proportion (10%) checked by a second reviewer. Quality was assessed using the Appraisal of Cross-sectional Studies tool. Due to the heterogeneity of the included studies, a narrative review was undertaken without a meta-analysis. RESULTS Searches yielded 1049 studies. 40 studies met eligibility criteria and were included in this review. Low reported levels of spirituality were associated with high burn-out scores and vice versa. Religion was not significantly associated with lower levels of burn-out. Few studies reported statistically significant findings, few used validated spiritual scores and most were vulnerable to sampling bias. CONCLUSIONS Published research suggests that burn-out is linked to spiritual health in medical doctors but not to religion. Robust research is needed to confirm these findings and develop effective interventions. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42020200145.

Abstract
Burnout and depression are global problems affecting healthcare providers, especially those working in stressful departments such as emergency departments (EDs) and critical care units (CCUs). However, pooled data analysis comparing healthcare providers operating in the ED and CCU is yet to be conducted. Therefore, this meta-analysis was systematically conducted to investigate and compare the prevalence of burnout and depression among emergency medicine (EM) and critical care medicine (CCM) professionals. We systematically searched for articles related to our research topic using the database search method and manual search method, which involved reviewing the reference lists of articles from electronic databases for additional studies. After screening the literature from the databases using the eligibility criteria, a quality appraisal using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale was performed on the eligible studies. In addition, a meta-analysis using the Review Manager software was performed to investigate the prevalence rates of burnout and depression. A total of 10 studies with 1,353 EM and 1,250 CCM professionals were included for analysis in the present study. The pooled analysis did not establish any considerable differences between EM and CCM healthcare workers on the prevalence of high emotional exhaustion (EE) (odds ratio (OR) = 1.01; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.46-2.19; p = 0.98), high depersonalization (OR = 1.16; 95% CI = 0.61-2.21; p = 0.64), low personal accomplishment (PA) (OR = 0.87; 95% CI = 0.67 - 1.12; p = 0.28), and depression (OR = 1.20; 95% CI = 0.74-1.95; p = 0.45). Moreover, pooled data showed no considerable differences in EE scores (mean difference (MD) = -1.07; 95% CI = -4.24-2.09; p = 0.51) and depersonalization scores (MD = -0.31; 95% CI = -1.35-0.73; p = 0.56). However, EM healthcare workers seemed to have considerably lower PA scores than their CCM counterparts (MD = 0.12; 95% CI = 0.08-0.16; p < 0.00001). No considerable difference was recorded in the prevalence of burnout and depression between EM and CCM healthcare workers. However, our findings suggest that EM professionals have lower PA scores than CCM professionals; therefore, more attention should be paid to the mental health of EM professionals to improve their PA.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prevalence of burnout in intensive care unit (ICU) professionals is difficult to establish due to the variety of survey instruments used, the heterogeneity of the targeted population, the design of the studies, and the differences among countries regarding ICU organization. METHODS We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis examining the prevalence of high-level burnout in physicians and nurses working in adult ICUs, including only studies that use the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) as a tool to evaluate burnout and involving at least 3 different ICUs. RESULTS Twenty-five studies with a combined population of 20,723 healthcare workers from adult ICUs satisfied the inclusion criteria. Combining 18 studies including 8187 ICU physicians, 3660 of them reported a high level of burnout (prevalence 0.41, range 0.15-0.71, 95% CI [0.33; 0.5], I2 97.6%, 95% CI [96.9%; 98.1%]). The heterogeneity can be at least in part explained by the definition of burnout used and the response rate as confirmed by the multivariable metaregression done. In contrast, there was no significant difference regarding other factors such as the study period (before or during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic), the income of the countries, or the Healthcare Access and Quality (HAQ) index. Combining 20 studies including 12,536 ICU nurses, 6232 of nurses were reporting burnout (prevalence 0.44, range 0.14-0.74, [95% CI 0.34; 0.55], I2 98.6% 95% CI [98.4%; 98.9%]). The prevalence of high-level burnout in ICU nurses for studies performed during the COVID-19 pandemic was higher than that reported for studies performed before the COVID-19 pandemic (0.61 [95% CI, 0.46; 0.75] and 0.37 [95% CI, 0.26; 0.49] respectively, p = 0.003). As for physicians, the heterogeneity is at least in part explained by the definition used for burnout using the MBI but not by the number of participants. When compared, the prevalence of high-level burnout was not different between ICU physicians and ICU nurses. However, the proportion of ICU nurses with a high level of emotional exhaustion was higher than for ICU physicians (0.42 [95% CI, 0.37; 0.48] and 0.28 [0.2; 0.39], respectively, p = 0.022). CONCLUSION According to this meta-analysis, the prevalence of high-level burnout is higher than 40% in all ICU professionals. However, there is a great heterogeneity in the results. To evaluate and to compare preventive and therapeutic strategies, there is the need to use a consensual definition of burnout when using the MBI instrument.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to understand how the type of wound dressing changes (routine or frequent) in patients admitted to intensive care units influences nurses' workload. This study used a database of retrospective and analytical observational study from one Portuguese intensive care unit. The sample included 728 adult patients admitted between 2015 and 2019. The nursing workload was assessed by the TISS-28 scale, both at admission and at discharge. The linear regression results show that patients with frequent dressing changes are associated with a higher nursing workload, both at admission (Coef. 1.65; 95% CI [0.53; 2.77]) and discharge (Coef. 1.27; 95% CI [0.32; 2.22]). In addition, age influences the nursing workload; older people are associated with a higher nursing workload (at admission Coef. 0.07; 95% CI [0.04; 0.10]; at discharge Coef. 0.08; 95% CI [0.05; 0.10]). Additionally, an increase in nursing workload at admission would significantly increase the nursing workload at discharge (Coef. 0.27; 95% CI [0.21; 0.33]). The relative stability of the nursing workload over the studied years is also another important finding (the influence of studied years is non-significant). In conclusion, patients with frequent dressing changes presented higher TISS-28 scores when compared with patients with an exchange of routine dressings, which leads to a higher nursing workload.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic has strained hospitals and healthcare workers engaged in combating the virus with limited knowledge and resources. Intensive care unit (ICU) nurses are among the healthcare workers most affected by the pandemic and are at risk for developing burnout syndrome. OBJECTIVE The present study aims to explore burnout symptoms prevalence among ICU nurses and to identify the individual, organizational, and contextual risk, and protective factors of burnout in ICU nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS A scoping review was conducted by searching PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Only papers with empirical data and referred to ICU nurses were included. A total of 350 initial results were yielded, and 40 full texts were screened. Twelve papers constituted the final sample in the analysis. RESULTS High levels of symptoms of burnout (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment) were registered among ICU nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Increased workload, lack of equipment, social stigma, and fear of contagion emerged as key risk factors. Social support from leaders and colleagues, professional recognition, use of personal protective tools, and witnessing patients' successful recovery emerged as major protective factors. CONCLUSIONS The results may inform the development of timely actions to counter burnout in ICU nurses during this COVID-19 pandemic and in a post-COVID-19 scenario.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the prevalence and features of self-reported burnout among intensivists working in Australia and New Zealand, and evaluate potentially modifiable workplace stressors associated with increased risk of self-reported burnout. Methods: We performed an electronic survey among registered intensivists in Australia and New Zealand. Burnout and professional quality of life were measured using the Professional Quality of Life Scale version 5 (ProQOL-5). Socio-organisational factors were defined a priori and assessed using a five-point Likert scale. Thematic analysis was conducted on an open-ended question on workplace stressors. Results: 261 of 921 estimated intensivists responded (response rate, 28.3%). Overall, few participants (0.8%) demonstrated high scores (> 75th centile) for burnout, and 70.9% of participants scored in the average range for burnout. Of note, 98.1% of participants scored in the average to high range for compassion satisfaction. No association was found between sex, age, or years of practice with the level of burnout or compassion satisfaction. Seven themes emerged regarding intensivists' most stressful aspects of work: interpersonal interactions and workplace relationships (25.5%), workload and its impact (24.9%), resources and capacity (22.6%), health systems leadership and bureaucracy (16.1%), end-of-life issues and moral distress (8.4%), clinical management (4.9%), and job security and future uncertainty (1.3%). Conclusion: Fewer Australian and New Zealand intensivists experienced burnout than previously reported. Many self-reported work stressors do not relate to clinical work and are due to interpersonal interactions with other colleges and hospital administrators. Such factors are potentially modifiable and could be the focus of future interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postpartum depression has well-established long-term adverse effects on maternal and infant health. Surgeons with rigorous operative schedules are at higher risk of obstetric complications, but they rarely reduce their workload during pregnancy. We evaluated whether lack of workplace support for work reductions during difficult pregnancies or after neonatal complications is associated with surgeon postpartum depression. STUDY DESIGN An electronic survey was sent to practicing and resident surgeons of both sexes in the US. Female surgeons who had at least one live birth were included. Lack of workplace support was defined as: (1) disagreeing that colleagues/leadership were supportive of obstetric-mandated bedrest or time off to care for an infant in the neonatal intensive care unit; (2) feeling unable to reduce clinical duties during pregnancy despite health concerns or to care for an infant in the neonatal intensive care unit. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the association of lack of workplace support with postpartum depression. RESULTS Six hundred ninety-two surgeons were included. The 441 (63.7%) respondents who perceived a lack of workplace support had a higher risk of postpartum depression than those who did not perceive a lack of workplace support (odds ratio 2.21, 95% CI 1.09 to 4.46), controlling for age, race, career stage, and pregnancy/neonatal complications. Of the surgeons with obstetric-related work restrictions, 22.6% experienced loss of income and 38.5% reported >$50,000 loss. CONCLUSION Lack of workplace support for surgeons with obstetric or neonatal health concerns is associated with a higher risk of postpartum depression. Institutional policies must address the needs of surgeons facing difficult pregnancies to improve mental health outcomes and promote career longevity.

Burnout and Associated Factors among Hospital-Based Nurses in Northern Uganda: A Cross-Sectional Survey. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:8231564. [PMID: 35372575 PMCID: PMC8970891 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8231564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2022] [Revised: 03/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Background Burnout is a public health problem that disproportionately affects nurses in sub-Saharan Africa because of the weak health systems that create an unconducive workplace environment. In Uganda, there is limited evidence on the burden of burnout among nurses in a manner that undermine advocacy and policy formulation. We aimed to assess the level of burnout and associated factors among nurses in northern Uganda. Methods This was a cross-sectional survey conducted among 375 randomly selected nurses from health facilities in northern Uganda. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics and logistic regression at a 95% level of significance in SPSS version 25. Results Majority of the respondents were female 56.5% (n = 223). Nearly half, 49.1% (n = 194) of respondents had high levels of burnout, 36.2% (n = 143) reported average levels of burnout, and 14.7% (n = 58) reported low levels of burnout. Factors associated with burnout were age (AOR: 2.90; 95% CI: 1.28-6.58; p = 0.011), social support (AOR: 0.45; 95% CI: 0.22-0.94; p = 0.033), healthy eating (AOR: 0.06; 95% CI: 0.02-0.22; p < 0.001), workload (AOR: 0.31; 95% CI: 0.14-0.68; p = 0.004), and management responsibilities (AOR: 3.07; 95% CI: 1.54-6.12; p = 0.001). Conclusion Half of the nurses in northern Uganda experienced high levels of burnout. The Ministry of Health should consider recruiting more nurses to reduce workload and adjust working hours to prevent workplace-related burnout among nurses in the country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The World Health Organization included burnout syndrome criteria that reduce both professional quality of life and work satisfaction in its 11th Revision of the International Classification of Diseases in 2019 while nursing bodies have issued action calls to prevent burnout syndrome. Despite this, the effect of social factors, personality traits and cross-interaction on professional quality of life is still unclear. AIM To reveal the association between ethical climate, personal trait and professional quality of life. METHOD An online survey of registered nurses working in adult, pediatric or both ICUs. We used the ten-item personality measure based on The Big Five theory and Type-D personality Scale-14 then measured the ethical climate with the Hospital Ethical Climate Survey and the professional domains of burnout syndrome, secondary traumatic stress and compassion satisfaction by the Professional Quality of Life Scale Version 5 simultaneously. Multivariate analysis confirmed the triangular association of hospital ethical climate, personality traits and professional quality of life. RESULT We enrolled 310 participants from September 2019 to February 2020. Mean age was 33.1 years (± 5.9) and about 70% were female. In the multivariate analysis, neuroticism (p = 0.03, p = 0.01) and Type D personality (both of p<0.01) were associated with burnout syndrome and secondary traumatic stress while agreeableness (p<0.01) was associated with secondary traumatic stress. Conversely, extraversion (p = 0.01), agreeableness (p<0.01) and openness (p<0.01) were associated with compassion satisfaction. We also observed interactions between hospital ethical climate and conscientiousness (p = 0.01) for burnout syndrome and secondary traumatic stress. Neuroticism was related to (p<0.01) BOS and compassion satisfaction while Type D personality (p<0.01) correlated with burnout syndrome and secondary traumatic stress. CONCLUSION Hospital ethical climate strongly affects professional quality of life in nurses with specific personality traits. Therefore, it is important to maintain an ethical hospital climate, considering individual personalities to prevent burnout syndrome.

A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study Assessing the Psycho-Emotional State of Intensive Care Units’ Physicians and Nurses of COVID-19 Hospitals of a Russian Metropolis. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19031828. [PMID: 35162851 PMCID: PMC8834761 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19031828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2021] [Revised: 01/27/2022] [Accepted: 02/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Working in intensive care units (ICUs) is stressful and potentially leads to various psycho-emotional disorders. Today, this issue represents a serious concern to the healthcare sector and affects the quality of healthcare provided. This study aimed to assess and compare the psycho-emotional state in COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 hospitals’ ICU healthcare workers (HCWs). From January to July 2021, we conducted an anonymous cross-sectional web survey of ICU physicians and nurses (N = 1259) of various hospitals in a metropolis with a population of over 10 million people. The statistical distributions of non-COVID-19 ICU HCWs showed the following results: emotional exhaustion levels (low 14.6%, average 30.8%, and high 54.6%); depersonalization levels (low 11.6%, average 16.5%, and high 71.9%); and reduced personal accomplishment levels (low 23.5%, average 40.3%, and high 36.2%). The statistical distributions of COVID-19 ICU HCWs showed the following results: emotional exhaustion levels (low 16.5%, average 31.5%, and high 52%); depersonalization levels (low 7.4%, average 9.4%, and high 83.1%); and reduced personal accomplishment levels (low 25.4%, average 45.4%, and high 29.1%). This study found a strong correlation between emotional exhaustion, aggression, and depersonalization in non-COVID-19 ICU HCWs and also found a correlation between their age, aggression, emotional exhaustion, and occupational stress.

Abstract
Introduction Burnout among healthcare professionals in intensive care units (ICUs) is a serious issue that leads to early retirement and medication errors. Their gender, lower years of experience, and lower education have been reported as risk factors. Simultaneously, mutual support—commonly referred to as “back-up behavior,” in which staff members support each other—is critical for team performance. However, little is known about the influence of mutual support among ICU healthcare professionals on burnout. The U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality refers to mutual support as the involvement of team members in: assisting one another, providing and receiving feedback, and exerting assertive and advocacy behaviors when patient safety is threatened. Objective This study aimed to verify the hypothesis that lower mutual support among ICU healthcare professionals is associated with increased probability of burnout. Methods A web-based survey was conducted from March 4 to 20, 2021. All ICU healthcare professionals in Japan were included. An invitation was sent via the mailing list of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and asked to mail to local communities and social network services. We measured burnout severity using the Maslach Burnout-Human Services Survey and mutual support using the TeamSTEPPS Teamwork Perceptions Questionnaire, as well as occupational background. The cutoff value for burnout was predefined and conducted logistic regression. Results We received 335 responses, all of which were analyzed. The majority of respondents were nurses (58.5%), followed by physicians (18.5%) and clinical engineers (10.1%). The burnout group scored significantly lower on mutual support than the non-burnout group. After adjusting for covariates in a logistic regression, low mutual support was an independent factor predicting a high probability of burnout. Conclusions This study suggests that it is important to focus on mutual support among ICU healthcare professionals to reduce the frequency of burnout.

Abstract
Healthcare staff across varied clinical settings are faced with varied stressors that can lead to compassion fatigue. However, there is currently no review examining the phenomenon in-depth in the burn unit. Thus, the current study sought to scope existing studies to ascertain the prevalence, contributing factors, and effects of compassion fatigue in the burn unit. Compassion fatigue was conceptualised as comprising of burnout and secondary traumatic stress. Arksey and O'Malley scoping review approach was used and reported according to the PRISMA extension guidelines. Searches were undertaken across peer-reviewed databases and grey literature sources for quantitative studies. Following the search and screening process, nine studies were retained. Codes were formulated across studies following which narrative synthesis was undertaken. Majority of the studies (n=5) focused on burn care nurses. High levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and comparatively low level of personal achievement were reported among burn care staff which is indicative of burnout. Compassion fatigue was also observed to be high among burn care staff. Contributing factors are varied albeit some variables such as age, staffing levels, remuneration, nature of the work environment, and number of years worked were consistent across some studies. In conclusion, working in the burn unit is challenging with significant stressors that can lead to burnout, traumatic stress, and subsequently, compassion fatigue. Interventions to promote resilience, hardiness, optimal working environment, peer, and psychosocial support are greatly needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to detect variables associated with burnout syndrome (BS) in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) and pediatric emergency medicine departments (PEDs) in high-volume centers from different parts of Turkey. METHODS An observational, cross-sectional multicenter study was performed. The Maslach Burnout Inventory scale was administered to all of health care providers working in PICUs and PEDs. In this study, health care providers were defined as physicians, nurses, and other staff (secretaries, cleaning and patient care staff) working in PICU and PEDs. RESULTS A total of 570 participants completed the survey. The major finding of this study was that 76.1% (n = 434) of PICU and PED health care professionals had BS. The most prominent subscale of BS was emotional exhaustion (62.5%). The rate of BS was higher among health care providers working in PEDs compared with PICUs (79.1% vs 73.7%, P = 0.04). The frequency of BS according to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization subscales was higher in health care providers of PEDs. The rate of BS was also significantly higher in younger employees, females, those working 51 or more hours totally in a week, those having a low monthly salary, those single or divorced, those without children, those with no childcare at home, those not owning a home, those not doing regular exercise and not having regular breakfast, those with total employment time of less than 1 year, and those not having a car or not having a hobby. In PEDs, when the daily evaluated number of patients was equal to or more than 44 (sensitivity, 88%; specificity, 66%), it predicted the occurrence of BS. In PICUs, when the number of patients cared for by 1 nurse was equal to or more than 3, it predicted the occurrence of BS (sensitivity, 78%; specificity, 62%). CONCLUSIONS By creating early intervention programs to prevent BS, shortages of health care professionals can be avoided and the costs of health care expenditures related to infections can be decreased.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of burnout and associated factors among nurses during COVID-19 in central Uganda. DESIGN A cross-sectional design. SETTING Nurse from one referral and four general hospitals. These were reception centres and cared for patients with COVID-19 in central Uganda. PARTICIPANTS 395 nurses. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Burnout scores. RESULTS Of the total 395 participants, 65.1% (n=257) were female; 40% (n=158) had a diploma; 47.1% (n=186) were single; and 39.2% (n=155) had worked for 11-15 years. The results show that 40% (n=158), 41.77% (n=165) and 18.23% (n=77) reported high, average and low levels of burnout, respectively. The results show that the predictors of nurses' burnout were personal protective equipment (PPE) (OR: 7.1, 95% CI 4.08 to 12.31) and increased workload (OR 4.3, 95% CI 2.43 to 7.93). CONCLUSION This study of nurses working in hospitals dealing with patients with COVID-19 in central Uganda reported high rates of burnout, and it was associated with PPE and workload. Interventions like contracting new nurses to reduce workload, the WHO guidelines on PPE, adjusting working hours and ensuring hours of effective rest should be adapted.

Objective We performed a systematic review to summarize the knowledge regarding the prevalence of burnout among intensive care unit physicians. Methods We conducted a systematic review of the MEDLINE and PubMed® databases (last update 04.02.2019) with the goal of summarizing the evidence on burnout among intensive care unit physicians. We included all studies reporting burnout in intensive care unit personnel according to the Maslach Burnout Inventory questionnaire and then screened studies for data on burnout among intensive care unit physician specifically. Results We found 31 studies describing burnout in intensive care unit staff and including different healthcare profiles. Among these, 5 studies focused on physicians only, and 12 others investigated burnout in mixed intensive care unit personnel but provided separate data on physicians. The prevalence of burnout varied greatly across studies (range 18% - 49%), but several methodological discrepancies, among them cut-off criteria for defining burnout and variability in the Likert scale, precluded a meaningful pooled analysis. Conclusion The prevalence of burnout syndrome among intensive care unit physicians is relatively high, but significant methodological heterogeneities warrant caution being used in interpreting our results. The lower reported levels of burnout seem higher than those found in studies investigating mixed intensive care unit personnel. There is an urgent need for consensus recommending a consistent use of the Maslach Burnout Inventory test to screen burnout, in order to provide precise figures on burnout in intensive care unit physicians.

Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2021; 67:103082. [PMID: 34340889 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2021.103082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2020] [Revised: 04/02/2021] [Accepted: 04/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to identify burnout syndrome severity and prevalence in paediatric intensive care unit nurses. DESIGN Systematic review. SETTING Paediatric intensive care unit. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES A librarian was consulted on methodology before the search process. MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and PsycINFO were searched for full-text studies published before September 2019 in any language. Only those observational studies exploring burnout syndrome, including paediatric intensive care unit nurses, were included. Two authors independently screened studies. We assessed the risk of bias within each study based on the Office of Health Assessment and Translation tool. RESULT After screening 1238 articles, we identified six studies which met the systematic review criteria. All studies included were published after 2012 and participant sample sizes were between 35 and 195 nurses. Three studies were conducted in the United States of America while the others were from the United Kingdom, Turkey and Taiwan. Prevalence of burnout syndrome in pediatric intensive care unit nurses was reported in these studies as between 42% and 77%. The assessment tools used in these studies were the (abbreviated) Maslach Burnout Inventory, Abbreviated Maslach Burnout Inventory, Occupational Burnout Inventory, and Professional Quality of Life Scale Version 5. We could not conduct a meta-analysis due to the lack of studies. CONCLUSION Our systematic review identifies that a low number (6 total) of relevant studies focused on burnout syndrome for pediatric intensive care unit nurses with a prevalence of burnout syndrome in paediatric intensive care unit nurses of between 42% and 77%.

Abstract
Recent studies provide an alarming view on the prevalence of burnout that has increased worldview markedly. This study aims to determine the level of burnout, association between socio-demographic characteristics and the correlation between burnout elements. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 118 critical care nurses using Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) to assess their emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and personal accomplishment (PA). It consists of 22 items with a 7-point Likert type rating scale. No significant difference between socio-demographic characteristics and the levels of burnout. 64.4% of participants scored high on emotional exhaustion, most of the participants (72.9%) had high levels of depersonalization and 37.3% of the participants reported high levels of personal accomplishment. Despite having high levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, critical care nurses in the tertiary hospital can maintain a positive evaluation of their accomplishment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shift work may lead to suboptimal sleep resulting in impaired alertness, and lowered performance levels, all of which can lead to medical errors. AIMS To examine fatigue, sleepiness and behavioural alertness prospectively in a tertiary level Australian intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS All full-time doctors providing 24-h resident cover on a 12-h day and 12-h night shift roster were invited to participate in this study. Data collected included Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), sleep and awake history, Samn-Perelli Fatigue (SPF) Scale, Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) and iOS-based Psychomotor Vigilance Test (behavioural alertness). Data about medical emergency team (MET) shifts were collected separately as they were perceived to be busier shifts. RESULTS Twenty-nine ICU doctors participated in this study for a consecutive 6-week period. At baseline the median (interquartile range (IQR)) ESS was 5 (3-9). Day shift leads to an increase in fatigue and sleepiness (both P < 0.01). Night shift leads to worsening in fatigue, sleepiness and psychomotor vigilance (all P < 0.01). MET shifts had a lower psychomotor vigilance than non-MET shifts. The difference in the psychomotor vigilance was mostly due to the difference in recorded lapses and response time. CONCLUSIONS Shift work ICU doctors experience high levels of fatigue and sleepiness. Night shifts also lead to decreased vigilance. This is even more evident in doctors working MET shifts. These factors may lead to errors. Optimal rostering may reduce these effects and improve patient safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Burnout has gained increasing attention worldwide; however, there is a lack of relevant research in China. This study investigated the prevalence and factors associated with burnout in physicians of the intensive care unit (ICU) in mainland China. METHODS This cross-sectional multicenter study included critical care physicians from all provinces in mainland China (except Tibet). A self-administered survey questionnaire was conducted. It included three parts: demographic information, lifestyle and work information, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. The levels of burnout were calculated. The factors independently associated with burnout were analyzed by logistic regression. RESULTS Finally, 1813 intensivists participated in the survey. The participation rate was 90.7%. The prevalence of burnout and severe burnout was 82.1% (1489/1813) and 38.8% (704/1813), respectively. According to the logistic regression analysis, "difficulty in making treatment decisions" was independently associated with burnout [OR = 1.365, CI (1.060, 1.757)]. "Higher number of children" [OR = 0.714, CI (0.519, 0.981)] and higher "income satisfaction" [OR = 0.771, CI (0.619, 0.959)] were independent protective factors against severe burnout. CONCLUSIONS The burnout rate in ICU physicians in China is high. Difficult treatment decisions, the number of children, and income satisfaction are independently associated with burnout rates among ICU physicians in China.

Abstract
Abstract The work context is a risk factor for the illness of many professionals, among which the medical profession is highlighted. Thus, this study aimed to identify the risks of illness related to the work context of doctors, in the light of Psychodynamics at Work. One hundred and two professionals participated, who responded to the Work Context Assessment Scales, Indicators of Pleasure and Suffering at Work and Work-Related Damage. The results, based on descriptive and inferential statistics, demonstrated a moderate risk of illness related to the work context, professional exhaustion and physical damage. Work organization was strongly associated with “professional burnout” and “lack of recognition”. It is concluded, therefore, that there is a need for greater attention to the organization of work by the medical profession.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was carried out to determine the effect of nurses' compassion on burnout. DESIGN AND METHODS This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 177 nurses. An introductory information form, the compassion scale and the Maslach burnout inventory were used as the data collection tools. Frequency, percentage, t test, analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis, correlation, and regression were used in the analysis of the data. FINDINGS The majority of the participants were determined to be female, married and university graduates. It was determined that there was a significant negative relationship between the nurses' sense of compassion and burnout levels, and burnout decreased as compassion increased. PRACTICAL IMPLICATION Burnout and compassion fatigue may lead to inadequate care for the patient. This situation will negatively influence nurses' care quality.

Abstract
The outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) brought significant psychological implications for healthcare professionals. We aimed to investigate the serial mediation effect of insomnia and exhaustion in the relationship between secondary traumatic stress (STS) and mental health complaints among the frontline healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this cross-sectional study, 126 frontline healthcare workers from Romania completed validated surveys between March and April 2020. PROCESS macros were used to test the proposed hypotheses of the three-path mediation model. We computed the models for insomnia as the first mediator (M1) and exhaustion (M2) as our second mediator. STS was significantly related to insomnia. Insomnia was significantly related to exhaustion, and STS was positively related to exhaustion. In the third model, exhaustion was strongly and positively related to mental health complaints. The total indirect effect was positive, and the sequential indirect impact of STS on mental health complaints via both mediators in series (insomnia and exhaustion) was significant. Secondary traumatic stress had a positive direct effect on mental health complaints. In our limited sample, the results show that frontline medical staff during the COVID-19 outbreak have high STS, which are related to mental health complaints through insomnia and exhaustion.

Abstract
PURPOSE End-of-life (EOL) decision-making is stressful. We conducted a quality improvement initiative to EOL decision-making and reduce stress for clinicians and patients' relatives. METHODS A before-after study running from 2010-2014 at four interdisciplinary intensive care units (ICU) in a German university hospital was performed. Between periods, a multifaceted intervention was implemented to improve timeliness, clinician involvement, and organisational support. Consecutive patients with severe sepsis and therapy limitations were included. Relatives were interviewed by telephone after 90 days to assess their psychological symptoms. Clinician burnout was assessed by staff surveys in each period. RESULTS Participation in the pre- and postintervention period was 84/145 and 90/159 among relatives, and 174/284 and 122/297 among ICU clinicians. Staff judged intervention elements as mostly helpful, but implementation of intervention elements was heterogeneous. From pre- to postintervention, relatives' risk of posttraumatic stress, depression and anxiety did not change (all p ≥ 0.464). Clinicians' risk of burnout increased (29% vs. 41%, p = 0.05). Relatives were highly satisfied in both periods (median of 9 vs. 9.2 on a 1-10 scale each). Attendings involved residents and nurses more often (both p ≤ 0.018). Nurses more often had sufficient information to talk with relatives (41% vs. 62%, p = 0.002). Time to first EOL decision as well as barriers and facilitators of EOL decision-making did not change. CONCLUSIONS The intervention may have increased involvement in EOL decision-making, but was accompanied by an increased risk of clinician burnout maybe due to lack of improving communication skills and organisational support. More research is needed to understand which interventions can decrease clinician burnout.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the relationship between ethical climate and burnout in nurses working in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). METHODS This cross-sectional and multi-center study was conducted among 212 nurses working in adult ICUs of six hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Iran in 2019. The participants were selected using systematic random sampling technique. Data was collected using valid instruments of Olson's Hospital Ethical Climate Survey (HECS) and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). RESULTS Ethical climate was favorable (3.5±0.6). The intensity (32.2±12.4) and frequency (25.5±12.4) of burnout were high. Ethical climate had significant and inverse relationships with frequency of burnout (r =-0.23, p=0.001) and with intensity of burnout (r=-0.186, p=0.007). Ethical climate explained 5.9% of burnout. Statistically significant relationships were also found between these factors: age with ethical climate (p=0.001), work shifts with burnout (p=0.02), and gender and with intensity frequency of burnout in ICU nurses (p=0.038). The results of Spearman correlation coefficient showed significant and inverse relationships between ethical climate and job burnout (r=-0.243, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Nurses in ICUs perceived that ethical climate was favorable however, burnout was high. Therefore, burnout can be affected by many factors and it is necessary to support ICU nurses since they undertake difficult and complicated task. It is recommended to assess factors that increase burnout and adopt specific measures and approaches to relieve nursing burnout.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 3 Wishes Project is a semistructured program that improves the quality of care for patients dying in the intensive care unit by eliciting and implementing wishes. This simple intervention honors the legacy of patients and eases family grief, forging human connections between family members and clinicians. AIM To examine how the 3 Wishes Project enables collective patterns of compassion between patients, families, clinicians, and managerial leaders in the intensive care unit. DESIGN Using a qualitative descriptive approach, interviews and focus groups were used to collect data from family members of dying patients, clinicians, and institutional leaders. Unconstrained directed qualitative content analysis was performed using Organizational Compassion as the analytic framework. SETTING/PARTICIPANTS Four North American intensive care units, participants were 74 family members of dying patients, 72 frontline clinicians, and 20 managerial leaders. RESULTS The policies and processes of the 3 Wishes Project exemplify organizational compassion by supporting individuals in the intensive care unit to collectively notice, feel, and respond to suffering. As an intervention that enables and empowers clinicians to engage in acts of kindness to enhance end-of-life care, the 3 Wishes Project is particularly well situated to encourage collective responses to suffering and promote compassion between patients, family members, and clinicians. CONCLUSIONS Examining the 3 Wishes Project through the lens of organizational compassion reveals the potential of this program to cultivate the capacity for people to collectively notice, feel, and respond to suffering. Our data document multidirectional demonstrations of compassion between clinicians and family members, forging the type of human connections that may foster resilience.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To summarize the results of expert discussions and recommendations from a National Summit and survey on the promoting wellness and preventing and managing burnout in the ICU. DATA SOURCES Literature review; Critical Care Societies Collaborative (CCSC) Statement on Burnout Syndrome in Critical Care Healthcare Professionals: A Call for Action; CCSC's National Summit on Prevention and Management of Burnout in the ICU; and a descriptive survey on strategies for addressing burnout using Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) (project-redcap.org). DATA SYNTHESIS Building on the CCSC call for action to address burnout among critical care professionals, the CCSC sponsored the National Summit on Prevention and Management of Burnout in the ICU with 55 invited experts in various fields including psychology, sociology, integrative medicine, psychiatry, suicide prevention, bereavement support, ethics, palliative care, meditation, mindfulness-based stress reduction, among others. Attendees joined breakout groups, to identify factors influencing burnout in ICU professionals and the value of organizational and individual interventions. As a follow-up to the Summit, a descriptive survey assessing strategies for addressing burnout was sent via email or newsletter blast with responses received from 680 CCSC members, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, and others. CONCLUSIONS The Summit attendees identified the importance of raising awareness among critical care clinicians and key stakeholders, advocating for workplace changes to promote healthy work environments, and promoting research to further explore practical strategies to address, mitigate, and prevent burnout. Critical care clinicians reported that a number of initiatives are being implemented both at their hospitals and at the unit level to build resilience and address burnout prevention. However, other respondents reported that no measures were being used within their organizations, and that colleagues were experiencing burnout. Dissemination and application of resiliency building measures and strategies to address burnout in critical care clinicians are needed.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of Burnout syndrome (BOS), risk factors and the effect of physical activity in six professions in Cameroon. Methods 2012 participants completed questionnaires related to socio-demographic conditions and work perception. Appropriate Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) psychometers were used for specific professions. Level of physical activity and sports practice was determined using the Ricci and Gagnon scale. Results The overall prevalence of burnout was 67.9%; with 5.3% high; 34.3% moderate; and 60.4% low degree. 42.2% of victims of BOS were in high loss of personal achievement, 39.9% in high depersonalization of and 38.2% in high emotional exhaustion. Higher prevalence of BOS was found in Army (85.3%) and educational sectors (78.5% in secondary school teachers (SET) and 68% in university teaching staff (UTS)). BOS was significantly associated (p < 0.05) with distance from home to workplace, number of children per participant, number of hospitals attended, number of guards per month, labour hours per day, conflicts with the hierarchy, conflicts with colleagues, poor working conditions, unsatisfactory salary, part time teaching in private university institutions, job seniority, sedentariness. Apart from UTS, no association was observed between the level of physical activity and occurrence of BOS. Conclusion Burnout is a reality in occupational environments in Cameroon.

A Systematic Review. Front Psychol 2020; 11:245. [PMID: 32226400 PMCID: PMC7080865 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2020.00245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Accepted: 02/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Many studies have been conducted in intensive care units (ICUs) to identify the stress factors involved in the health of professionals and the quality and safety of care. The objectives are to identify the psychometric scales used in these studies to measure stressors and to assess their relevance and validity/reliability. Methods: All peer-reviewed full-text articles published in English between 1997 and 2016 and focusing on an empirical quantitative study of job stressors were identified through searches on seven databases and editorial portals. Results: From the 102 studies analyzed, we identified 59 different scales: 17 "all settings scales" (16 validated scales), 20 "healthcare settings scales" (13 validated scales), and 22 "ICU settings scales" (two validated scales). All these scales used measured stressors from at least one of the following eight broad categories: High job demands, Problematic relationships with other professionals, Lack of control over work situations and career, Lack of organizational resources, Problematic situations with users and relatives, Dealing with ethical- and moral-related situations, Risk management issues, and Disadvantages in comparison to other occupational situations. The "all settings scales" and "healthcare settings scales," the most often validated, did not measure, or only slightly measured, the stressors most specific to ICUs. Where these were taken into account, the authors were forced to develop their own tools or modify existing scales without testing the validity of the tool used. Conclusions: This review highlights the lack of a tool that meets both the criteria of validity and relevance with regard to the specificity of work in ICUs. Future research must focus on developing reliable/valid tools covering all types of relevant stressors to ensure the quality of the studies carried out in this field.

Abstract
Burnout in healthcare providers has impacts at the level of the individual provider, patient, and organization. While there is a substantial body of literature on burnout in healthcare providers, burnout in pediatric nurses has received less attention. This subpopulation may be unique from adult care nurses because of the specialized nature of providing care to children who are typically seen as a vulnerable population, the high potential for empathetic engagement, and the inherent complexities in the relationships with families. Thus, the aim of this scoping review was to investigate, among pediatric nurses, (i) the prevalence and/or degree of burnout, (ii) the factors related to burnout, (iii) the outcomes of burnout, and (iv) the interventions that have been applied to prevent and/or mitigate burnout. This scoping review was performed according to the PRISMA Guidelines Scoping Review Extension. CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, ASSIA, and The Cochrane Library were searched on 3 November 2018 to identify relevant quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method studies on pediatric nurse burnout. Our search identified 78 studies for inclusion in the analysis. Across the included studies, burnout was prevalent in pediatric nurses. A number of factors were identified as impacting burnout including nurse demographics, work environment, and work attitudes. Similarly, a number of outcomes of burnout were identified including nurse retention, nurse well-being, patient safety, and patient-family satisfaction. Unfortunately, there was little evidence of effective interventions to address pediatric nurse burnout. Given the prevalence and impact of burnout on a variety of important outcomes, it is imperative that nursing schools, nursing management, healthcare organizations, and nursing professional associations work to develop and test the interventions to address key attitudinal and environmental factors that are most relevant to pediatric nurses.

Abstract
Introduction Intensive care staff have high levels of stress. We conducted a service improvement initiative to assess workplace stress levels among staff in one adult general intensive care unit and deliver a stress management intervention. Methods A psychological intervention of four stress management sessions, and fortnightly staff support drop-in groups, was developed and delivered within a year. Pre- and post-intervention, workplace stress in the unit was assessed using a Health and Safety Executive tool. Results Pre-intervention assessment of 76 (47.2%) staff indicated that improvement was needed in all domains of workplace stress. 125 staff (77.6%) participated in the intervention and gave positive ratings for content, relevance, practicality and personal value (median 4 (1-5); interquartile range 3.8-4.6). Post-intervention assessment of 71 staff (41.3%) demonstrated improvements in all workplace stress domains. Conclusion A reduction in workplace stress was observed following a service improvement intervention in one intensive care unit although no causality can be assumed. Similar interventions should be evaluated using robust study designs.

Abstract
As a complex and multidimensional problem, the occupational burnout causes absence, dissatisfaction, badtemper, physical and emotional exhaustion and displacement. This study aimed to investigate the levels of occupational burnout and its components in Mazandaran's hospitals by the kind of their ownership. This descriptive-analytical study was conducted as a cross-sectional research in 2018. The research population included all 2,850 therapeutic employees working in two teaching hospitals, one therapeutic hospital, one social security hospital and one private hospital, all located in Mazandaran province, Iran. In total, 569 questionnaires were completed; the research instrument was the Persianversion of Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Data were analyzed in SPSS 22 by applying statistical approaches with p < 0.05. The private hospital had the highest mean rate of emotional exhaustion (44.69 ± 8.50). The social security hospital had the highest mean rate of depersonalization (25.47 ± 4.59). Considering the reduced personal accomplishment, as a component, the private hospital had the highest rate (30.24 ± 7.16). The highest and lowest mean rates of occupational burnout were observed with the private hospital (95.48 ± 16.71) and teaching hospitals (85.25 ± 15.34). The difference was significant between the studied hospitals in this regard (p < 0.001). As the private hospital had a higher rate of occupational burnout than therapeutic, teaching, and social security hospitals, the managers of the private hospital can focus on removing various tensions in the workplace and preventing heavy work length as well as compensating for a pay decrease.

Abstract
Work stress is an integral part of anesthetic practice and has been a subject of many studies. Persistent stress can lead to burnout. There is limited published literature from lower- and middle-income countries where job stressors may be different from high-income countries. The aim of this study was to find out the level of burnout in a cohort of anesthesiologists working in academic institutions in 2 major cities of Pakistan, a low middle income country. We conducted an anonymous survey based on the Maslach Burnout Inventory scale with 3 major components: emotional exhaustion; depersonalization; and burnout in personal achievement. The demographic and other work-related details were collected in a standardized manner. Our response rate was 74.5%. Seventy-seven percent of the participants were residents and 23% consultants. Gender distribution was 66.9% males and 33.1% females. Thirty-nine percent (95% CI, 34.8%-44.1%) showed moderate- to high-level emotional exhaustion, 68.4% (95% CI, 63.9%-72.7%) showed a moderate to high level of depersonalization, and 50.3% (95% CI, 45.6%-55.07%) showed a moderate to high level of burnout in personal achievements. On multivariable analysis, anesthesia not being the primary career choice was significantly associated with all 3-dimensional scales for the whole cohort. Factors significantly associated with emotional exhaustion were Lahore as city of work, >2 nights on call per week, and >40 h/wk work inside the operating room. Depersonalization burnout was again associated with Lahore as city of work, >40 h/wk work inside the operating room, and personal achievement burnout with >2 on-call nights per week. No association was observed for gender, marital status, or having children. In conclusion, a high rate of burnout was identified in anesthesiologists working in 2 major cities in Pakistan. Some new associated factors such as initial choice of specialty and city of work were highlighted. Based on these findings, preventive and coping strategies need to be introduced at institutional and national levels.

Abstract
Background Critical care is widely perceived, both within and outside of the speciality, as unremitting and emotionally burdensome. There is a perception of a higher risk to medical staff of burnout than other specialities. Critical care also has considerable emotional and professional rewards. We sought to examine this balance between emotional reward and stress in UK critical care consultants registered with the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine. Method We conducted a Wellbeing survey of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine consultant membership utilising the Professional Quality of Life (Pro-QOL) survey tool. The survey was conducted as part of the Annual Workforce Census. Results In sum, 799 members completed the Pro-QOL survey, making this one of the largest surveys of physician wellbeing in critical care medicine. Data were analysed in accordance with the Pro-QOL manual. Conclusions The results demonstrate moderate risk for burnout and secondary traumatic stress, but this is balanced by moderate compassion satisfaction. No association was demonstrated between age, sex, or size of critical care unit worked in. Further follow-up of this consultant group is warranted to better understand risk factors for burnout and for future mitigation of these risk factors whilst also enhancing the positive aspects of working as a consultant in critical care medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Self-perception in clinical skills, including communication skills (CS), has been found to provide insights on strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for skill improvement. The present study is aimed at exploring perceived CS among physicians working at a tertiary healthcare level. METHODS Physicians working at a tertiary hospital based in Saudi Arabia were invited to complete a modified self-questionnaire that assesses CS. Descriptive and association studies were performed. Psychometric properties of the questionnaire were determined. RESULTS Out of the 101 participating physicians, 57.2% rated their CS in the range of very good and excellent, but only 30.7% rated themselves as overall excellent. The question item with the highest mean score (score range, 1 to 5) was related to encouraging patients to ask questions (4.2 ± 0.9), while the lowest was for the item that assessed information disclosure (3.8 ± 0.8). Males rated themselves higher than females in the item related to explaining things to patients (p < 0.05), whereas physicians with non-surgical specialties rated themselves better than those with surgical specialties in the item related to expressing interest in patients (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Based on physicians' self-rated assessment, less than the third of tertiary care physicians considered themselves as maintaining an excellent level of CS. Future studies are encouraged to examine CS through a multisystem assessment and promote the need for CS training for physicians working at a tertiary care level.

Abstract
Introduction Le burnout ou syndrome d'épuisement professionnel des soignants est un problème de santé publique au Cameroun. Il se manifeste par un épuisement émotionnel, une dépersonnalisation et une diminution de l'accomplissement personnel du sujet. Il touche la plupart des personnels soignants et les conséquences sont nombreuses. Au Cameroun en général et à l'Hôpital Central de Yaoundé (HCY) en particulier, toutes ces dernières années, les soignants n'ont cessés d'exprimer leur mécontentement face à leurs conditions de travail à travers des grèves et menaces de divers ordres. La prise en charge des patients se fait de façon impersonnelle et on assiste à des conséquences dramatiques et des problèmes déontologiques. Méthodes Notre étude transversale analytique avait pour objectif de déterminer les facteurs qui sont associés au burnout dans cette population des soignants de l'HCY. Pour ce faire, pendant un mois, nous avons administré auprès de ces soignants notre questionnaire conçu selon les modèles théoriques de Maslach et Siegrist. Nous avons pu obtenir des informations recherchées auprès de 104 personnels soignants; la saisie et l'analyse des données se sont faites avec SPSS 20. Résultats Les résultats montrent auprès des soignants de quatre unités de soins de l'HCY des manifestations similaires à celles trouvées dans la littérature et une prévalence du Burnout (BO) de 63% parmi ces soignants. Sept facteurs y ont été associés de façon statistiquement significative: il s'agit du pavillon d'exercice (OR= 3.93; 1.16-13.24; p-value=0.027); le statut matrimonial (OR: 2.56; 1.22 - 5.39; p-value=0,049); le ratio effort/récompenses déséquilibré (OR: 2.31; 1.10 - 4.84; p-value=0.026 ); avoir été menacé physiquement ou verbalement (OR: 3,75; 1,49 - 9,41; 0,005); le maintien de l'équilibre entre vie privée et vie professionnelle (OR: 3,41; 1,19- 10,7; p-value=0,038); la fréquence des oublis (OR: 4,25 -1,33; 7,91; p-value=0,002) l'attribution des erreurs aux conditions de travail (OR: 2,05;1,52 - 24,0; p-value=0,011). Conclusion Le burnout est présent au sein des populations soignantes de l'HCY et risque de s'accroitre si rien n'est fait. Des stratégies de prévention et de promotion de la santé au travail sont vivement nécessaires dans les aspects de l'amélioration des conditions de travail; les prises de bonnes décisions politique et managériales; l'amélioration des relations entre soignants et soignant-hiérarchie et la recherche constante, le suivi et contrôle des facteurs de risque.

Abstract
Burnout tends to be high in ICU settings. Stressors include serious patient illness, round-the-clock acute events, and end-of-life (nonbeneficial) care. We report on an ICU with very low burnout scores. We sought to understand factors that might be responsible for these favorable outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess-by literature review and expert consensus-workforce, workload, and burnout considerations among intensivists and advanced practice providers. DESIGN Data were synthesized from monthly expert consensus and literature review. SETTING Workforce and Workload section workgroup of the Academic Leaders in Critical Care Medicine Task Force. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Multidisciplinary care teams led by intensivists are an essential component of critical care delivery. Advanced practice providers (nurse practitioners and physician assistants) are progressively being integrated into ICU practice models. The ever-increasing number of patients with complex, life-threatening diseases, concentration of ICU beds in few centralized hospitals, expansion of specialty ICU services, and desire for 24/7 availability have contributed to growing intensivist staffing concerns. Such staffing challenges may negatively impact practitioner wellness, team perception of care quality, time available for teaching, and length of stay when the patient to intensivist ratio is greater than or equal to 15. Enhanced team communication and reduction of practice variation are important factors for improved patient outcomes. A diverse workforce adds value and enrichment to the overall work environment. Formal succession planning for ICU leaders is crucial to the success of critical care organizations. Implementation of a continuous 24/7 ICU coverage care model in high-acuity, high-volume centers should be based on patient-centered outcomes. High levels of burnout syndrome are common among intensivists. Prospective analyses of interventions to decrease burnout within the ICU setting are limited. However, organizational interventions are felt to be more effective than those directed at individuals. CONCLUSIONS Critical care workforce and staffing models are myriad and based on several factors including local culture and resources, ICU organization, and strategies to reduce burden on the ICU provider workforce. Prospective studies to assess and avoid the burnout syndrome among intensivists and advanced practice providers are needed.
