The COVID-19 crisis put a strain on intensive care resources everywhere in the world increasing the risk of burnout. Previously, the prevalence of burnout among Dutch intensivists was found to be low. Engagement and resilience among intensivists have not previously been studied quantitatively, however, both are related to burnout and provide a possible way to mitigate burnout. Our objective was to study burnout and its association with work engagement and resilience among Dutch intensivists in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis.
An online questionnaire was sent to all Dutch intensivists. The questionnaire consisted of questions on personal and work-related characteristics and validated questionnaires: the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale, and the Resilience Evaluation Scale.
The response rate was 27.2% with 162 evaluable responses. Thirteen respondents (8.0%) were classified as having burnout, 63 (38.9%) respondents were reporting high work engagement. Burnout was found to be negatively associated with both work engagement and resilience.
In the aftermath of the 2020 COVID-19 crisis, we found a raised prevalence of burnout among intensivists, however this is still low in international comparisons. Intensivists with burnout scored low on resilience and low on work engagement.
COVID-19 危机使世界各地的重症监护资源紧张,增加了 burnout 的风险。此前,荷兰重症监护医生的 burnout 患病率较低。然而,重症监护医生的敬业度和适应力以前并未进行过定量研究,两者都与 burnout 有关,并提供了减轻 burnout 的可能方法。我们的目的是研究 COVID-19 危机后荷兰重症监护医生的 burnout 及其与工作投入度和适应力的关系。
向所有荷兰重症监护医生发送了在线问卷。问卷包括个人和工作相关特征以及经过验证的问卷:Maslach 倦怠量表、乌得勒支工作投入量表和适应力评估量表。
回复率为 27.2%,有 162 份可评估的回复。13 名受访者(8.0%)被归类为 burnout,63 名受访者(38.9%)报告工作投入度高。 burnout 与工作投入度和适应力呈负相关。
在 2020 年 COVID-19 危机之后,我们发现重症监护医生的 burnout 患病率有所上升,但与国际比较仍处于较低水平。 burnout 的重症监护医生在适应力和工作投入度方面得分较低。
