High rates of professional burnout and career choice regret among urology residents may increase professional dissatisfaction, shorten career longevity, and exacerbate urology workforce shortages. Understanding the prevalence of and risk factors for burnout may help develop interventions.
Up to 48% of contemporary U.S. urology residents experience burnout symptoms, including up to 70% of second-year residents. Among overlapping personal, professional, institutional, and lifestyle risk factors, barriers to accessing medical and mental health care are frequently cited as an important association in residents. Limited intervention studies suggest that providing basic needs, such as on-call meals, and facilitating physical wellness and social engagement among residents may result in sustained reductions in burnout. Urology residents continue to experience high rates of burnout and career choice regret among medical specialties. Evidence-based interventions and sustainable policies that address primary risk factors are urgently needed.
泌尿科住院医师中较高的职业倦怠和职业选择后悔率可能会增加职业不满，缩短职业寿命，并加剧泌尿科劳动力短缺。了解倦怠的流行程度和危险因素有助于制定干预措施。
多达 48%的当代美国泌尿科住院医师经历了倦怠症状，包括多达 70%的第二年住院医师。在个人、专业、机构和生活方式的重叠风险因素中，获得医疗和心理健康保健的障碍经常被认为是住院医师的一个重要关联因素。有限的干预研究表明，为住院医师提供基本需求，如值班餐，以及促进身体健康和社交参与，可能会持续减少倦怠。在医学专业中，泌尿科住院医师继续经历较高的倦怠和职业选择后悔率。迫切需要基于证据的干预措施和解决主要风险因素的可持续政策。
