According to several English, Canadian and American surveys, burn-out syndrom can affect up to half of medical students during their studies, with the occurrence rate varying with the year of study. As is case for health professionals, a number of factors, be they individual-related, intrinsic to the job, or external, have been highlighted by this research. Burn-out can lead to serious personal, academic or professional consequences. Furthermore, there is an apparent correlation between burnout and a lack of professionalism, as well as between burn-out and a low [corrected] capacity for empathy. Medical schools should play a central role in detecting and addressing psychological hardship among their students, but the simple recognition of burn-out syndrom as a real problem faced by medical students currently constitutes a major challenge.
根据多项英国、加拿大和美国的调查，职业倦怠综合征在医学生学习期间可能影响多达一半的学生，其发生率随学习年份而变化。与卫生专业人员的情况一样，这项研究强调了一些因素，这些因素要么与个人相关，要么是工作本身固有的，要么是外部的。职业倦怠会导致严重的个人、学业或职业后果。此外，职业倦怠与缺乏职业素养之间以及职业倦怠与同理心能力低下之间存在明显的相关性。医学院校应在发现和解决学生的心理困境方面发挥核心作用，但简单地认识到职业倦怠综合征是医学生面临的一个现实问题，目前仍是一项重大挑战。
