Area of Science:

  • Medicine
  • Surgery
  • Occupational Health

Background:

  • Occupational burnout is a significant issue among surgical professionals.
  • Awareness and measurement of burnout in medical professionals have improved over the last decade.

Approach:

  • A systematic review was conducted to assess burnout levels in general surgeons.
  • Searches covered major databases (PubMed, Embase, Cinahl, Google Scholar) from 2010-2020.
  • Five studies involving 669 subjects were critically appraised using the CASP tool.

Key Points:

  • Burnout syndrome is prevalent in general surgeons, linked to demanding work conditions.
  • Burnout incidence increases with years of service.
  • Burnout negatively affects quality of life, mental, and physical health.
  • Personal achievements and emotional satisfaction appear protective against burnout.

Conclusions:

  • Valid recognition and prevention strategies for burnout syndrome are necessary.
  • Further research is required to manage burnout in surgical departments and healthcare settings.
