“…Autonomy alone appears lower in hospitalists (3.14 vs 3.27-3.50), possibly because of their often subordinate role with consultants. Hospitalist burnout rates were comparable to those of emergency medicine physicians and internist intensivists 8,9 , but lower than those for surgeons. 36 This study has several limitations.…”

“…Other sitebased specialties such as emergency and critical care medicine that share the fast-paced, high-workload, complex care of hospital patients have seen high levels of burnout, which influences job turnover and attrition. 8,9 The first and only large survey of hospitalist demographics and worklife occurred in 1999. 10 Since then, concerns about the sustainability of the specialty grew as reports of burnout, job turnover, and the demand for new hospitalists were common in the specialty newsletters.…”

BACKGROUND:The number of hospitalists in the US is growing rapidly, yet little is known about their worklife to inform whether hospital medicine is a viable longterm career for physicians. OBJECTIVE: Determine current satisfaction levels among hospitalists. DESIGN: Survey study. METHODS: A national random stratified sample of 3,105 potential hospitalists plus 662 hospitalist employees of three multi-state hospitalist companies were administered the Hospital Medicine Physician Worklife Survey. Using 5-point Likert scales, the survey assessed demographic information, global job and specialty satisfaction, and 11 satisfaction domains: workload, compensation, care quality, organizational fairness, autonomy, personal time, organizational climate, and relationships with colleagues, staff, patients, and leader. Relationships between global satisfaction and satisfaction domains, and burnout symptoms and career longevity were explored. RESULTS: There were 816 hospitalist responses (adjusted response rate, 25.6%). Correcting for oversampling of pediatricians, 33.5% of respondents were women, and 7.4% were pediatricians. Overall, 62.6% of respondents reported high satisfaction (≥4 on a 5-point scale) with their job, and 69.0% with their specialty. Hospitalists were most satisfied with the quality of care they provided and relationships with staff and colleagues. They were least satisfied with organizational climate, autonomy, compensation, and availability of personal time. In adjusted analysis, satisfaction with organizational climate, quality of care provided, organizational fairness, personal time, relationship with leader, compensation, and relationship with patients predicted job satisfaction. Satisfaction with personal time, care quality, patient relationships, staff relationships, and compensation predicted specialty satisfaction. Job burnout symptoms were reported by 29.9% of respondents who were more likely to leave and reduce work effort. CONCLUSIONS:Hospitalists rate their job and specialty satisfaction highly, but burnout symptoms are common. Hospitalist programs should focus on organizational climate, organizational fairness, personal time, and compensation to improve satisfaction and minimize attrition.

“…A relationship between burnout and job satisfaction is established for several types of physicians [1,4,8,10,14,19,26,27], but has been studied less among surgeons treating musculoskeletal conditions. To be able to build and maintain resources to address these issues, it would help to have a better understanding of job satisfaction and burnout among this group of surgeons.…”

“…Professions with intense involvement with people-including physicians [4,10,14,27,28] and nurses [13]-are prone to burnout. Job satisfaction however is thought to derive from intrinsic (eg, achievement and accomplishment) and extrinsic (eg, wages and job security) factors [23].…”

Background Burnout is common in professions such as medicine in which employees have frequent and often stressful interpersonal interactions where empathy and emotional control are important. Burnout can lead to decreased effectiveness at work, negative health outcomes, and less job satisfaction. A relationship between burnout and job satisfaction is established for several types of physicians but is less studied among surgeons who treat musculoskeletal conditions. Questions/purposes 123Clin Orthop Relat Res (2016) 474:1857-1863 DOI 10.1007 Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research ® Conclusions Among an active research group of largely academic surgeons treating musculoskeletal conditions, most are satisfied with their job. Efforts to limit burnout and job satisfaction by optimizing engagement in and deriving meaning from the work are effective in other settings and merit attention among surgeons. Level of Evidence Level II, prognostic study.

Burnout in the internist-intensivist

Abstract: Burnout as measured by the MBI appears to be common in internal medicine intensivists. High levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization are related not only to patient care issues but also to a poor support system.
