“…Prevalence estimates centered around 10%-26% when stricter criteria of MBI were used and 37%-50% when liberal criteria of MBI were used. [19][20][21] Based on 'personal burnout" domain of CBI, which the investigators used in the study, the prevalence estimate of burnout was around 80% among Malaysian medical students. [22] But 47.4% was the estimate of burnout in a group of medical students in Pakistan.…”

Background: Burnout among medical students is important for its prevalence, consequences, and modifiable risk factors. Although there are studies on the topic across the globe, Indian studies are few in number. A prevalence estimate of burnout and its determinants among Indian medical graduates will keep us informed about the emotional and motivational factors hindering their professional growth. Methods: From a total of 500 students spanning 5 professional years, data could be collected from 375 students. The study used a questionnaire primarily consisting of "personal burnout" domain of the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI), which is a validated instrument to assess the burnout at a cutoff score of 50. The questionnaire also included a set of potential personal correlates of burnout. In addition to summary statistics, both univariate and multivariate analyses were used for discerning the relationship of these correlates with burnout. Results: The prevalence of burnout among medical students in the college under study was 48.5% (95% confidence interval 43.4-53.7). The proportions of moderate, higher, and severe burnout were 44.8%, 3.2%, and 0.5% respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that female gender and perceived stress were associated with burnout. Choosing medicine by one's own choice and maintaining hobbies and interests were associated with less chance for burnout. Conclusion: Burnout is a prevalent phenomenon among medical students. There are modifiable risk factors for burnout and addressing them will help in training a medical student with high motivation and professionalism.

Context: Medical profession continues to grapple with burnout; even medical students are not spared of this self-destructive psychological experience. Attempts are being made to control and contain burnout in medical students by the medical fraternity. Aims: We intend to study the prevalence and determinants of burnout in medical students in a tertiary medical center and also to study the relationship of resilience with the experience of burnout. Settings and Design: This was a cross-sectional anonymous survey method. Materials and Methods: Randomized stratified sampling method was used wherein roll numbers of MBBS students belonging to four different semesters were chosen using randomization software. Based on prevailing prevalence of burnout, sample size calculation was done, and 196 completed questionnaires were included in analysis. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA) were used. Two-dimensional approach toward diagnosing burnout was used. Statistical Analysis: Association tests were carried out to analyze the association between means, and Spearman's rho was used to assess the correlation of MBI subscales with RSA subscales. We also used binary logistic regression to assess the relationship of burnout with resilience. Results: The prevalence of burnout was 16.84%, and high scores on depersonalization (DP) subscale were seen in males. Personal accomplishment (PA) scores were lower in the fifth and seventh semesters. A statistically significant correlation was observed between MBI and RSA subscales. Binary regression analysis revealed higher resilience scores were significantly associated with decreased likelihood of burnout in emotional exhaustion (odds ratio [OR] = 0.95; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.93-0.97), DP (OR = 0.95; 95% CI = 0.93–0.98), and PA (OR = 0.91; 95% CI = 0.84–0.98). Conclusions: Burnout prevalence in our sample lies at the lower range of global prevalence rates. Resilience is protective from burnout.

Resumo: Introdução: O curso de Medicina possui fatores potencialmente estressantes que podem gerar adoecimento psíquico nos alunos. Métodos curriculares alternativos ao sistema tradicional, como aAprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (ABP), podem ter impacto na saúde mentaldos discentes. O objetivo deste estudo foirealizar uma revisão sistemática de estudos que avaliaram a saúde mental de estudantes de Medicina submetidos ao método ABP. Método: Realizou-se uma busca de alta sensibilidade nas principais bases de dados científicas associadas àsaúde mental (CochraneLibrary, Medline via PubMed, Portal Regional da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde(BVS), Eric e Embase) com inserção até 22 de setembro de 2019. Os descritos indexados e os termos de identificação foram definidos por especialistas e avaliados pelo grupo de tecnologia da informação da Universidade Estadual do Pará.Os critérios de inclusão para os estudos obtidos por meioda busca foram: artigos apresentados na íntegra, escritos em qualquer língua, publicados no período de 1998 a 2018, com foco na saúde mental de alunos do curso de Medicina submetidos ao método ABP. Excluíram-se os trabalhos que não avaliaram a saúde mental, os artigos em que a amostra não foi submetida à metodologia de ensino ABP e aqueles de revisão literária. Após a seleção, os artigos foram avaliados duplamente por revisores independentes quanto ao risco de viés e à qualidade de evidência mediante a ferramenta Robins-I. Resultados: Identificaram-se 1.261 estudos, dos quais se excluíram 1.251 conforme orientaçãodoprotocolo Prisma, restando dezartigos ao final, os quais foram sintetizados de forma descritiva. Em geral, os estudos têm mostrado que o método de ABP, em comparação com o método tradicional, promove melhor desempenho acadêmico, bem como estimula atividades práticas, fato que gera certo grau de satisfação. Conclusão: Os discentes de Medicina submetidos ao método ABP são associados a resultados adequados de aprendizado e desempenho médico-científico. Entretanto,metodologias científicas mais assertivas, baseadas em critérios metodológicos mais rigorosos,são necessárias para elucidar de forma mais abrangente os benefícios e danos dessa metodologia pedagógica.
