To evaluate burnout and satisfaction with work-life integration among physician assistants (PAs) compared with other US workers.
We surveyed PAs and a probability-based sample of US workers. The survey included the Maslach Burnout Inventory and an item on satisfaction with work-life integration.
Overall, 41.4% of PAs had burnout symptoms and 65.3% were satisfied with their work-life integration. In multivariable analysis, working in emergency medicine and dissatisfaction with control of workload and work-life integration were independently associated with having higher odds of burnout. PAs were more likely to have burnout than other workers but did not have greater struggles with work-life integration.
Findings from this study suggest burnout and dissatisfaction with work-life integration are common. PAs appear at higher risk for burnout than workers in other fields.
与其他美国劳动者相比,评估医师助理(PA)的职业倦怠及对工作与生活融合的满意度。
我们对医师助理以及基于概率抽样的美国劳动者样本进行了调查。该调查包括马氏职业倦怠量表以及一项关于工作与生活融合满意度的项目。
总体而言,41.4%的医师助理有职业倦怠症状,65.3%对其工作与生活的融合感到满意。在多变量分析中,从事急诊医学工作以及对工作量控制和工作与生活融合不满意与职业倦怠几率较高独立相关。医师助理比其他劳动者更易出现职业倦怠,但在工作与生活融合方面并未面临更大困难。
本研究结果表明职业倦怠以及对工作与生活融合的不满很常见。医师助理出现职业倦怠的风险似乎高于其他领域的劳动者。
