“…In terms of coping, higher use of dysfunctional coping strategies was associated with clinically significant psychological distress. This is consistent with previously reported association between avoidant coping strategies and burnout and lower compassion satisfaction in the medical setting (Doolittle, 2020 ). Moreover, avoidant coping was associated with the perceived stress during the pandemic in an Italian study (Babore et al, 2020 ).…”

Objective: To assess the psychological distress of healthcare providers (HCPs) working in the field of obstetrics during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and to identify factors associated with psychological distress at the individual, interpersonal, and organizational level.Design: Cross-sectional survey study.Setting: Four University hospitals in Italy.Participants: HCPs working in obstetrics, including gynecologists, residents in gynecology and obstetrics, and midwives.Methods: The 104-item survey Impatto PSIcologico COVID-19 in Ostetricia (IPSICO) was created by a multidisciplinary expert panel and administered to HCPs in obstetrics in May 2020 via a web-based platform.Main Outcome Measures: Psychological distress assessed by the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) included in the IPSICO survey.Results: The response rate to the IPSICO survey was 88.2% (503/570), and that for GHQ-12 was 84.4% (481/570). Just over half (51.1%; 246/481) of the GHQ-12 respondents reported a clinically significant level of psychological distress (GHQ-12 ≥3). Psychological distress was associated with either individual (i.e., female gender, stressful experience related to COVID-19, exhaustion, and the use of dysfunctional coping strategies), interpersonal (i.e., lower family support, limitations in interactions with colleagues), and organizational (i.e., reduced perception of protection by personal protective equipment, perceived delays on updates and gaps in information on the pandemic) factors in dealing with the pandemic.Conclusions: Results confirm the need for monitoring and assessing the psychological distress for HCPs in obstetrics. Interventions at the individual, interpersonal, and organizational level may relieve the psychological distress during the COVID-19 pandemic and foster resilience skills in facing emotional distress.

Introduction: Welcome to Part 1 of the biannual Journal of Wellness review of 2020 wellness literature (January-June). In this review, JWellness editors continue the goal of bringing a cohesive awareness of recent publications within the wellness domain, encompassing wellness leaders from all disciplines in healthcare. We provide insight into unique perspectives and new science published outside of JWellness, dealing with burnout prevention and wellness initiative implementation. Methods: PubMed was searched for empirical research studies, review articles, and editorials using keywords such as "wellness, " "well-being, " "burnout" and "healthcare professionals. " We have included 26 articles in this review. Literature in Review: Similar themes emerged in the recent literature, and wellness inquiry continues to receive heightened attention. We have divided this review into the following sections: studies measuring wellness in healthcare providers, pieces on burnout and leadership, studies focusing on interventions to improve wellness, key perspectives on improving wellness, and COVID-19 and provider wellness. Conclusion: Wellness research continues to evolve, with new studies specifically providing for increased awareness on relationships between wellness behaviors, burnout, leadership styles, and positive mindset. We learn more about effective interventions to alleviate both mental and physical wellness deficits: mindfulness, coaching, and training sessions. COVID-19 has and will continue to be a focus of wellness research, specifically on healthcare providers who are positioned at the center of the pandemic.

“…The questionnaire is available as an appendix in the original validation manuscript. 33 In addition to the three primary instruments, a subscale of the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQol) 34 has also been used to measure burnout in several studies. 35 The ProQol is a 30-item instrument with ten questions each addressing compassion satisfaction, secondary traumatic stress, and burnout.…”

Objective. To conduct an integrative review of existing literature evaluating burnout and stress to identify reliable, valid, psychometrically sound survey instruments that are frequently utilized in published studies and to provide best practices in conducting burnout and stress research within academic pharmacy. Findings. 491 articles were reviewed finding 11 validated reliable surveys most frequently cited in literature that can be used in future burnout and stress research. Frequent misunderstandings and misuse of burnout and stress terminology along with inappropriate measurement were noted as well. Additionally, a variety of useful websites were identified during the review. Lastly, a relative dearth of published research evaluating organizational solutions to burnout and stress beyond personal factors, ie, resilience was identified. Summary. Burnout and stress among student pharmacists, faculty, and staff is an important research area that necessitates more robust, rigorous evaluation using validated reliable surveys with appropriate contextualization within psychological frameworks and theory. Future research evaluating organizational-level attempts to remedy sources of burnout and stress is also needed.
