Evaluation of Burnout Syndrome in Medical Residents Following a “Rest after Shift” Intervention
Open accessAbstract
Background: The burnout syndrome generates a negative impact on professional performance, patient´s safety and resident´s life.Despite this problem has become important in the residency programs in Argentina, effective measures to prevent burnout among residents have not been evaluated yet.Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of the burnout syndrome before and after the implementation of rest after shift in cardiology residents.Methods: An analytic and prospective study was conducted using the Maslach burnout questionnaire in cardiology residents of an institution in the city of Buenos Aires, before and after the implementation of a day of rest (DOR) after a 24-hour shift.Results: The survey was responded by 42 residents (2014: 19; 2015: 23).There was a trend towards lower prevalence of burnout in the DOR group (26.1% vs. 47.4% p=0.152) and better outcomes in the depersonalization scale [19 (11-21) vs. 10 (1-17) p=0.023].Women and residents who had moved to Buenos Aires presented lower degrees of exhaustion and depersonalization.Conclusions: The implementation of DOR after a 24-hour shift was associated with a reduction in the depersonalization scale, particularly among women.We emphasize the importance of creating prevention strategies aimed at improving residents' working conditions and quality of life.

Organizational interventions showed no statistically significant association with any burnout domain (EE, DP, PA).
“In organizational intervention studies [44, 45, 47–49, 73, 76], pooling of post-intervention intervention Cohen’s d SMD yielded non-statistically significant resulted in all outcomes, EE (-0.22, 95% CI -0.47 to 0.04, p = 0.10, I2 = 62.6%) (Fig. 3A), DP (-0.15, 95% CI -0.38 to 0.08, p = 0.21, I2 = 53.0%) (Fig. 3B), and PA (0.12, 95% CI -0.01 to 0.25, p = 0.07; I2 = 0%) (Fig. 3C).”

In the organizational work-hour intervention subgroup, there was no significant post-intervention effect across all outcome domains: EE -0.20 (95% CI -0.58 to 0.17, p = 0.29, I2 = 67.1%), DP -0.16 (95% CI -0.48 to 0.16, p = 0.33, I2 = 55.8%), and PA 0.04 (95% CI -0.12 to 0.20, p = 0.60, I2 = 0%).
“Subgroup analyses revealed no post-intervention Cohen’s d SMD in work-hour interventions [44, 45, 47, 73, 76] across all outcome domains: EE (-0.20, 95% CI -0.58 to 0.17, p = 0.29, I2 = 67.1%), DP (-0.16, 95% CI -0.48 to 0.16, p = 0.33, I2 = 55.8%), and PA (0.04, 95% CI -0.12 to 0.20, p = 0.60, I2 = 0%).”

Outcome measurements were conducted using various versions of the validated Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI): 26 studies used the 22-item MBI, 5 used the 9-item MBI, 1 used the 20-item Dutch version, and 1 used the 16-item MBI.
“Outcome measurements were conducted using various versions of the validated MBI. Specifically, 26 studies (78.7%) used the 22-item MBI [44, 45, 47–49, 51, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60–65, 67, 68, 70–76], 5 studies (15.2%) employed the 9-item MBI [50, 53, 55, 59, 69], 1 study (3.0%) used the 20-item Dutch version of the MBI [57], and 1 study (3.0%) utilized the 16-item MBI [66].”

The majority of studies employed non-randomized, non-concurrent designs, with 9 using historical controls, 13 utilizing self-control studies, and 11 randomized controlled concurrent trials.
“The majority of studies employed non-randomized, non-concurrent designs, with 9 (27.2%) using historical controls [44, 48, 49, 56, 59, 68, 71, 75, 76] and 13 (39.4%) utilizing self-control studies [47, 50, 53, 54, 58, 61, 65–67, 69, 70, 72, 73]. Eleven (33.3%) studies were randomized, controlled, concurrent trials [45, 51, 52, 55, 57, 60–64, 74].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
