| description | Abstract: Introduction: Medical residency can cause burnout syndrome, a physical, emotional and mental state of extreme exhaustion. Objective: This research sought to describe and analyze the prevalence of burnout in resident physicians linked to a teaching Hospital and to verify whether there is a correlation with sociodemographic and socioeconomic data. Method: This is an analytical, cross-sectional and quantitative study using the MBI (Malasch Burnout Inventory) version HSS (Human Services Survey), the Brazilian Economic Classification Criterion (CCEB) of ABEP and sociodemographic questions. Result: Of the enrolled residents, 102 participated in the survey. Of these, 76.47% showed a high level in at least one of the three domains of the burnout index and 21.57% of the residents showed a high level of burnout. There was a significant relationship between a larger number of children and the presence of emotional exhaustion (P=0.047), a higher frequency of depersonalization for surgical area residents (P=0.013) and reduced professional accomplishment, with an average income of R$ 2,965.69 and R$ 10,386.52 (P=0.006). No significant relationship was found between burnout and sociodemographic and socioeconomic variables. Conclusion: The results show that resident physicians are exposed to situations that contribute to high levels of stress and distress. Further studies on the subject are still necessary. |
