Filter by:Burnout Syndrome (BOS) can be defined as a state of stress both physically and psychically due to the burden and stressor of high work. The prevalence of BOS in health workers varies between 25-75% globally. Studies have shown that the presence of Burnout syndrome will meaningfully reduce the quality of services related to patient safety and cause immune system disorders that act as the body's defense against viral, bacterial, protozoal and fungal infections. Many strategies have been researched to help prevent and reduce the occurrence of Burnout syndrome, one of which is music therapy. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of music therapy on the immune response in health workers with Burnout Syndrome. This study is a randomized clinical trial with a pre and post test control group design for health workers at Dr Kariadi General Hospital and Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. Subjects will be provided with information prior to the study and asked to sign an informed consent sheet if they agree to be involved in the study. Subjects will be divided into control groups and treatment groups with matching age, gender and type of work. In the treatment group, music therapy will be given as much as 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Data were taken on both groups before and after the intervention. This study used the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Service Survey (MBI-HSS) and blood laboratory examination to determine the value of the Neutrophyl Lymphocyte Ratio, Interleukin 6 and Interleukin 10 levels.
Parents of children with a chronic disease or functional disabilities have an increased risk of stress-related distress and reduced quality of life. Internet-delivered interventions are one way to reach out to exhausted parents who may often have challenges in finding time to access face-to-face services. We developed a guided web-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy intervention for Finnish parents of children with chronic conditions or functional disabilities. Participants (N=100) will be recruited on parent associations' Facebook groups and randomly assigned to guided web-based ACT condition and a control condition receiving psychoeducation. The guided web-based ACT condition will receive a 10-week web intervention including three remote meetings with a psychologist through the telemedicine application Doxy.me. Symptoms of burnout (SMBQ), depression (PHQ), health-related quality of life (RAND-36), mindfulness (FFMQ), general measure of psychological flexibility (CompACT) as well as the wellbeing of their child (KINDL) will be measured before (pre) and after the intervention (post), at 7-month (follow-up 1) and 10-month (follow-up 2) after the pre-measurement. In this randomized controlled trial we will investigate the outcomes and the mechanisms of change of the web-based ACTintervention. In addition, we will examine the acceptability of the web-based intervention.
In the last few decades, the world has seen a significant increase in the occurrence of occupational diseases related to Burnout Syndrome (professional exhaustion) and stress in educators. These disorders affect mental health and teaching activity. In this way, they need to develop socio-emotional skills to cope with the psychosocial stressors related to the school environment. Currently, mindfulness-based therapies have been recommended to help educators acquire emotional self-control, and to improve self-esteem, metacognition, attention, resilience and affectivity, in addition to better the social skills needed in the school milieu. The main objective of the proposed research project is to elaborate a program of Mindfulness-Based Health Promotion - educators (MBHP - educa) to be applied to a population of Brazilian public school educators. The efficacy of the program will be evaluated by cognitive testing. Blood tests for the above-mentioned stress-related molecules will be performed. The goal of developing the MBHP - educa Program is to promote and ameliorate the health care of public school teachers. Developing such a research proposal will contribute to debate and implement public health policies focussed on promoting the health of public school teachers in Brazil.
Whether and to what extent burnout risk is actually higher in surgical specialties than in non-surgical specialties is still unknown. Little is also known about what factors are associated with burnout between surgical residents and non-surgical residents. In this context, the present study has a three-fold aim: 1) to measure the prevalence of burnout among a sample of Italian medical residents; 2) to contrast the prevalence of burnout and psychological distress in surgical residents and non-surgical residents, and 3) to identify the work-related factors associated with burnout between surgical residents and non-surgical residents.
A randomized, controlled trial was conducted for 73 Chineses nurses from The Second Xiangya Hospitcal of Central South University (33 in the experimental group, 40 in the control group). The experimental group received a six-month Wechat-based "three good things" positive psychotherapy from August 2015 to January 2016, while the control group only received normal psychological instruction from the hospital. A socio-demographic sheet, Malsach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, the Turnover Intention Scale, The Job Satisfaction Scale, The Job Performance Scale, General Self-efficacy Scale, The Trait Coping Style Scale (TCSS), The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were used to collect data prior to and immdediately after the intervention. The blood cortisol was also evaluated prior to and immdediately after the intervention. SPSS 23.0 was used for data analysis. Descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Chi-square test, repeated-measures analysis and T-test were employed to analyse the effect of "three good things" intervention on nurse burnout. We hypothesis that the "three good things" positive psychotherapy could alleviate nurses' burnout, turnover intention, improve their job performance, job satisfaction, self-efficacy, resilience, introduce nurses' to use positive coping strategies to overcome adversities. Moreover, their blood cortisol would be reduced after the intervention.
The objective is to check whether a training program in mindfulness and self-pity based on a 4-session intervention (abbreviated program) is as effective as the standard 8-session MBSR program in reducing work stress and burnout in tutors and residents of Medicine and Family and Community Nursing. It is a controlled clinical trial, randomized by cluster, of three parallel arms, multicentric. Six teaching units (ratio 1: 1: 1) will be randomized to one of the three study groups: 1) Experimental Group-8 (EG8); 2) Experimental Group-4 (EG4); 3) Control group (CG). At least 132 subjects will participate, 44 in the EG8, 44 in the EG4 and 44 in the CG. The interventions will be based on the MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) program, to which some of the practices of the MSC (Mindful Self-Compassion) program will be added. The EG8 intervention will be carried out during 8 weekly sessions of 2.5 hours, while the EG4 intervention will be of 4 sessions of 2.5 hours. The participants will have to practice at home for 30 minutes / day in the EG8 and 15 minutes / day in the EG4. In the 3 groups the questionnaires FFMQ (mindfulness), SCS (self-pity), ordinal scale (0-10) and questionnaire PSQ (perceived stress) and MBI (burnout) will be passed. Empathy will also be measured, through the EEMJ, anxiety and depression disorders (EADG) and self-perceived health status.
This study seeks to evaluate the prevalence and characterize predictors of physician burnout in the anesthesia residency at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The study also seeks to evaluate the effect of an exercise intervention on burnout and personal resiliency (i.e., less individual stress given the same workload).
Stress-related mental disorders are today the leading cause of long-term sick leave in Sweden, and a large part of this increase is due to Clinical burnout, in Sweden called "Exhaustion disorder" (ED). Even though clinical guidelines recommend multi-professional rehabilitation (MPR) for ED, few studies have evaluated the effects of these treatment programs in clinical practice. This large-scale open clinical trial investigates whether MPR for ED seems to alleviate symptoms of ED and if it results in return-to-work.
Mindfulness training for teacher and children of primary schools. Blinded and controlled study design. Burnout as primary outcome for teacher and classroom behavior for children.
Background: Burnout and overwhelming stress are growing issues among surgeons and are associated with mental illness, attrition and diminished patient care. Among surgical trainees, burnout and distress are alarmingly prevalent but high inherent mindfulness has been shown to decrease the risk of depression, suicidal ideation, burnout and overwhelming stress by more than 75%. In other high-stress populations formal mindfulness training has been shown to improve mental health and buffer overwhelming stress and yet this approach has not been tried in surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate feasibility and acceptability of modified mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) training among PGY-1 surgery residents and to obtain initial evidence of efficacy in regard to well-being and performance. Design: A pilot randomized clinical trial of modified MBSR versus an active control. Setting: Residency training program, tertiary academic medical center. Participants: PGY-1 surgery residents. Intervention: Weekly two-hour modified MBSR classes (compared to an active control) and 20 minutes of suggested daily home practice over an eight-week period. Main Outcomes and Measures: Primary outcome is feasibility, assessed along six domains (demand, implementation, practicality, acceptability, adaptation and integration), using focus groups, interviews, surveys, attendance, daily practice time and subjective self-report of experience. Secondary outcomes include perceived stress, mindfulness and executive function (specifically working memory capacity), followed by psychosocial well-being (burnout, depression, resilience), performance (motor skills testing) and functional brain scans focused on areas associated with reappraisal as a surrogate for emotional control. This study seeks to demonstrate the feasibility of mindfulness training in surgery PGY-1s while simultaneously providing preliminary quantitative data on the effects of mindfulness training in a randomized, controlled setting. Data will inform modifications to the MBSR curriculum that enhance feasibility and inform sample size calculations for subsequent, adequately-powered RCTs which will likely need to be multi-center trials. Results could potentially impact formal medical training, the mental health of providers at every level, and the overall quality of patient care.
