“…In terms of age group, younger nurses reported a higher prevalence of burnout in this study. This is in line with previous studies from various countries 31–37. In addition, similar to other studies,13 32 38 years of working experience were also associated with burnout whereby junior nurses were more susceptible to burnout than their senior counterparts.…”

“…This is in line with previous studies from various countries. 31–37 In addition, similar to other studies, 13 32 38 years of working experience were also associated with burnout whereby junior nurses were more susceptible to burnout than their senior counterparts. This could be attributed to the fact that junior nurses have yet to master the nursing skills, thus requiring a longer period to complete their tasks.…”

ObjectiveThis national-level study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors of burnout, as well as the coping strategies among nurses in the Ministry of Health (MOH) Malaysia.DesignUsing a complex sampling design, a two-stage stratified cluster sampling was performed to recruit MOH nurses between August and November 2019.Setting and participantsA total of 2428 nurses from 32 hospitals and 28 district health offices answered the questionnaires based on Maslach Burnout Inventory for Human Services and Brief COPE. Complex sampling analysis was applied.Outcome measuresThe outcome of interest was the prevalence of burnout and its three domains of emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalisation (DP) and low personal accomplishment. ORs using 95% CIs were calculated. Significant factors at the univariate level were entered into the multivariate logistic regression to identify independent predictors of burnout.ResultsOne in four (24.4%) nurses experienced burnout. Younger, single, and childless nurses had a higher prevalence of burnout. Shift working nurses were 1.6 times more likely to develop burnout. Those who performed >6 night shifts per month were 1.5 times more predisposed to burnout (95% CI 1.01 to 2.36; p<0.05). While encountering traumatic events at work led to 4.2 times (95% CI 2.31, 7.63; p<0.05) higher risk of burnout, those who received post-traumatic psychological support were better protected. The use of dysfunctional coping strategies was detrimental as it was positively correlated with EE and DP.ConclusionAddressing modifiable stressors of burnout at individual and institutional levels identified in this study can be potentially beneficial in reducing burnout and its undesirable effects among nurses. Interventions that promote positive coping strategies should be implemented. Organisational-driven efforts must target the improvement of work schedules for nurses and the establishment of a structured debriefing service for post-trauma counselling.

Twenty-four participants (43.6%) were having high emotional exhaustion (EE), 41.8% had high depersonalization (DP) and 16.4% had low personal and professional achievement (PPA). Single doctors were found to be more burnout as compared to those who were married (p = 0.037). Additionally, having private practice was associated with high EE and high PPA. Those having higher monthly income were more burnout in EE domain.Conclusion: Burnout Syndrome is common among the consultant gynecologists of public sector healthcare.

Objective: In this study, we plan to estimate the frequency of burnout among healthcare providers in a specialized teaching Hospital. Methods: A questionnaire based on the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) including personal, work and client subscale was administered to various healthcare workers including staff nurses, residents and consultants. Results: When the demographic data of 100 participants was analyzed it showed that there were 39 (39 %) males and 61(61 %) females. The mean age of participants was 32.2 years. Professional categories enrolled were 40 nurses, 32 consultants and 28 postgraduate trainees. The mean level of personal burnout was 47.15±15.73, 38.53 ± 17.64 and 41.06 ± 15.78 among nurses, postgraduate trainees and consultants respectively. The level of work-related burnout was 45.95 ± 19.01, 36.60 ± 14.93 and 36.75 ± 14.99 among nurses, postgraduate trainees and consultants respectively. Whereas client-related burnout was found to be 42.62 ± 16.63, 27.67 ± 12.22 and 30.71 ± 18.04 among nurses, postgraduate trainees and consultants respectively. Burnout severity was higher among nurses, and also more commonly seen among females as compared to males. Lastly, younger respondents were more burned out compared to older respondents. Conclusion: In conclusion, addressing burnout among healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, is crucial for the well-being of the healthcare force and the safety and quality of patient care. The study’s recommendation for personal and institutional interventions is an essential step in mitigating this issue and ensuring a healthier, more effective healthcare system. Keywords: Burnout severity, moderate burnout, Copenhagen Burnout Inventory.
