To examine the relationship between Contemplative Medicine training and clinician burnout.
Clinicians underwent a 12 month training program in Contemplative Medicine, which addresses several of the "Well-being 2.0" framework elements. An uncontrolled pre and post test study design was used with the validated Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) as the study tool to evaluate efficacy of the program.
Participants demonstrated improvement in burnout levels after the intervention. There were significant differences at the 0.05 significance level or better on all three scales of the MBI instrument when comparing baseline to follow-up responses, including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and sense of personal accomplishment. Particular improvement was noted in the "personal accomplishment" domain, with p < 0.01 when comparing baseline and follow-up responses.
The results of this study suggest that Contemplative Medicine training is a viable approach for improving clinician burnout and concretely implementing the "Well-being 2.0" framework.
探讨冥想医学培训与临床医生 burnout（倦怠）之间的关系。
临床医生接受了为期 12 个月的冥想医学培训，该培训涵盖了“健康 2.0”框架的几个要素。采用未经控制的前后测试设计，并使用经过验证的 Maslach 倦怠量表（MBI）作为研究工具，评估该计划的效果。
干预后，参与者的 burnout（倦怠）水平有所改善。在 MBI 工具的所有三个量表上，与基线相比，随访时的反应均具有统计学意义（p<0.05），包括情绪疲惫、去人性化和个人成就感。在“个人成就感”方面尤其有明显的改善，与基线相比，p<0.01。
这项研究的结果表明，冥想医学培训是改善临床医生 burnout（倦怠）的可行方法，具体实施了“健康 2.0”框架。
