Precariousness of medical work, with loss of autonomy and devaluation, in addition to unstable and non-guaranteed employment bonds, has caused health problems in professionals, hampering the assistance provided. Research shows a high prevalence of stress, burnout, depression, and suicide among physicians. This study investigated aspects of mental health in physicians from the state of Paraná, Brazil.
We aimed to evaluate indicators of stress, burnout, and work engagement measured by inventories specifically designed for each one: Stress Symptoms Inventory, Burnout Syndrome Inventory, Utrecht Work Engagement Scale, respectively.
The professionals answered the questionnaires remotely, after accepting the invitation for the study and signing the consent form.
A total of 1,201 physicians answered the questionnaires, with mean age of 37 years; 53.9% of participants were women; 63.5% graduated in Paraná. Of the total number of participants, 97.5% and 93.4% presented psychological and physical symptoms of stress, respectively. According to the Inventário da Síndrome de Burnout, the prevalence of diagnosis of burnout was estimated at 59.4%. As for work engagement, 40% of participants showed very high levels in the overall score of the construct.
Most physicians showed signs of stress; burnout rates were high; negative organizational conditions prevailed in the work environment; work engagement was frequent.
医疗工作的不稳定,伴随着自主性的丧失和价值贬低,再加上不稳定且无保障的雇佣关系,给专业人员带来了健康问题,阻碍了医疗服务的提供。研究表明,医生中压力、职业倦怠、抑郁和自杀的发生率很高。本研究调查了巴西巴拉那州医生的心理健康状况。
我们旨在评估通过专门为每项设计的量表所测量的压力、职业倦怠和工作投入指标,分别为《压力症状量表》《职业倦怠综合征量表》《乌得勒支工作投入量表》。
专业人员在接受研究邀请并签署知情同意书后,通过远程方式回答问卷。
共有1201名医生回答了问卷,平均年龄为37岁;53.9%的参与者为女性;63.5%在巴拉那州毕业。在所有参与者中,分别有97.5%和9%的人出现了压力的心理和身体症状。根据《职业倦怠综合征量表》,职业倦怠的诊断患病率估计为59.4%。至于工作投入,40%的参与者在该量表的总体得分中表现出非常高的水平。
大多数医生表现出压力迹象;职业倦怠率很高;工作环境中负面的组织状况普遍存在;工作投入很常见。
