“…Moller and colleagues found that the more a person is motivated at work, the better their occupational health . An ESMO survey supported that good work/life balance and adequate vacation time contribute to reducing burnout levels. Our study also noted that a poor relationship with colleagues and an imbalance between work and family may lead to a high risk of burnout.…”

Background There is a growing recognition that medical staff members are exposed to job and life stressors that increase the risk of burnout. This study aimed to investigate the potential stressors among medical staff members working at a Cancer Center in Beijing and to explore the demographic, occupational, and societal features associated with burnout. Methods This was a cross‐sectional study. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) survey was distributed to all medical staff members, along with an anonymous questionnaire to collect general information about demographic, occupational, and societal characteristics. The data were analyzed using T test, ANOVA, and multivariable linear regression. Results A total of 1096 of 1208 (91%) medical staff members completed the questionnaires, including 285 (26%) doctors and 572 (52%) nurses. The scores for emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and personal accomplishment (PA) were 14.51 ± 9.78, 5.78 ± 5.59, and 35.07 ± 10.43, respectively. Domicile, being a nurse, working overtime, and low self‐rated QoL were predictors of EE; Domicile, being a researcher, low self‐rated health, low self‐rated QoL, and bad colleague relationships were predictors of DP; Age, being a doctor or a nurse, low self‐rated health, and low self‐rated interpersonal relationships were predictors of low PA. Conclusion Compared with the other occupations, doctors and nurses are more likely to experience burnout. Additionally, cultivating a better work environment, promoting the health and quality of life of staff, and improving rapport with colleagues may help to prevent burnout.

“…Therefore, it is difficult to view these findings with confidence. While there is concern regarding the reliability of the findings in Alacacioglu et al, (), Elit et al, (), and Glasberg et al, (), the studies from Banerjee et al () and Shanafelt, Gradishar, Kosty, Satele, et al, used a large sample of participants and were conducted across multiple European countries and the United States. This suggests that it is reasonable to conclude that being in a relationship with a significant other may help to protect individuals from burnout.…”

“…However, the moderate quality rating of Probst et al () and lack of statistical information from Elit et al, () suggests further replication of the findings are needed to assist generalisability. Seven of the studies (Banerjee et al, ; Blanchard et al, ; Cubero et al, ; Leung & Rioseco, ; Ramey et al, ; Roth et al, ; Shanafelt, Gradishar, Kosty, Satele, et al, ) found hours worked/excessive workload, delivery demands, a lack of free time, amount of clinical time or inadequate work‐life balance were associated with higher levels of burnout. These seven studies have quality ratings ranging from moderate to high (four as high), four had large sample sizes of N = >400, and data covers, North and South America, Europe, and Australasia, which gives confidence in the generalisability of the findings.…”

“…Of these, seven found no significant difference between those who were married or single. Five studies (Alacacioglu et al, 2009;Banerjee et al, 2017;Elit et al, 2004;Glasberg et al, 2007;Shanafelt, Gradishar, Kosty, Satele, et al, 2014) found being single, living alone or having fewer partners to be associated with higher levels of burnout. However, no statistical information is provided by Elit et al (2004) for their notion that having fewer partners correlated with low PA. Glasberg et al (2007) state that they conducted multivariate logistic regression analysis and found having a companion to be associated with lower rates of burnout, but do not provide results of the statistical test other than statistical significance information (p = 0.017).…”

Background Oncologists may be particularly at risk of burnout. This systematic literature review and meta‐analysis explores the prevalence of burnout and associated factors in oncologists. Methods The authors assessed 26 studies that utilised the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) tool to measure burnout. Pooled prevalence rates were calculated via meta‐analysis (MetaXL) using random effects models. Results Approximately 5,768 oncologists provided burnout data. A significant number experience burnout as highlighted by the pooled prevalence rates for MBI subscales of: emotional exhaustion at 32%; depersonalisation at 24%; and low personal accomplishment at 37%. Eighteen of the studies reported factors found to be significantly associated with high levels of burnout in oncology physicians. These were grouped into demographic differences, individual factors and work factors. Conclusion Burnout was found to affect a significant proportion of oncologists. Burnout was associated with being single, being younger in age, reduced psychological well‐being, difficulties outside of work, workplace demands and workplace stress. Burnout has considerable implications for oncology physicians and patient safety. Further insight into individual factors, and factors associated with lower burnout would be beneficial.

“…The rates of burnout and compassion fatigue are increasing among healthcare professionals (HCPs) in the US and other developed countries (Banerjee et al, ; Gomez‐Urquiza et al, ; Shanafelt et al, ; Wu, Singh‐Carlson, Odell, Reynolds, & Su, ). Burnout and compassion fatigue directly affect the health of the clinician and research shows that clinician well‐being has a direct impact on patient health outcomes (Salyers et al, ).…”

Aims To synthesize evidence about the effectiveness of expressive arts interventions used to reduce psychosocial stress among healthcare workers. Design Quantitative systematic review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses guidelines. Data Sources SocINDEX, PsycINFO, Pubmed, CINAHL. Review Methods Databases were searched from 1997–2017. Fourteen studies met the criteria for final selection. Results Most studies occurred in the US (N = 11). Of the 897 participants, 59% were nurses. Two studies were randomized controlled trials and the others were a variation of a 1‐group or 2‐group pre‐ or quasi‐experimental study. The intervention characteristics included 50% art‐based, 29% music‐based, and 21% used storytelling or narrative. The length of intervention varied from 1 hr to 13 weeks; 5 lasted 6 weeks. Improved outcomes were found in 13 of 14 studies reviewed and the greatest improvements were seen in burnout, stress, and emotional outcomes. Overall, music and art‐based interventions had greater impact on well‐being than storytelling or narrative. Conclusions This systematic review provides preliminary evidence for the effectiveness of expressive arts interventions. Impact Care for others is a preeminent value in health care; however, this can come at the expense of caring for oneself. Psychosocial stress poses a significant threat to the well‐being of the healthcare workforce. Expressive arts interventions provide a creative means for reducing caregiver stress to remain well and able to provide high quality care to patients. The use of arts for healing has global application because expressive arts intervention can be culturally tailored and relevant.
