Síndrome de desgaste profesional en trabajadores de atención a la salud en el área sanitaria de Ceuta

Abstract

Burnout prevalence in the health care workers in our sample is similar to other studies. The differences between health and non-health workers could be due to greater motivation for professional achievement, but they scored higher in exhaustion and depersonalisation. The increase in C-reactive protein, a non-specific inflammation marker, seems to confirm the findings of other studies.

Influence of Workload on Primary Care Nurses’ Health and Burnout, Patients’ Safety, and Quality of Care: Integrative Review

“…All these effects have economic implications for the system [17,22,31,32]. The studies that support this review allow to know the global scope of this connection [10][11][12][13]17,21,27,31,35,36,38,39,[41][42][43]45,49], that cannot be attributed to the existing particularities of a specific field.…”

The scope of the problem is global, as there are studies in different labour contexts at the international level [38][39][40][41][42]. Although protective factors [43,44] have been identified, one of the decisive issues in the emergence of this phenomenon evidenced in numerous studies is the increase in the pressure on healthcare [45].…”
