Filter by:The prevalence of burnout symptoms among physicians is high, especially for acute care physicians. Physician burn out is a long-term stress reaction marked by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a lack of sense of personal accomplishment. The healthcare environment, due to its demanding pace and emotional intensity, puts physicians at high risk for burnout.
We investigate burnout syndrome and smartphone addiction in healthcare workers, including doctors, nurses, medical secretaries, security guards, and cleaning staff, who have been actively working from the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. target population included 1190 healthcare workers, from which a total of 183 agreed to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria for participation. A sociodemographic data form, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version were used as the data collection tools.
Mindfulness has become increasingly popular and positive outcomes have been reported for mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) in reducing stress. The aim of this study is to investigate if a non-guided mindfulness mobile phone application can decrease perceived stress in a non-clinical Dutch population over the course of eight weeks, with follow-up at six months.
This was a randomized controlled trial study to measure the effect of intervention of Zumba dance towards psychological and biological markers in hospital residents managing COVID-19 patients
The level of stress-related disorders experienced by Healthcare Providers (HCPs) has increased due to the recent COVID-19 Pandemic, impacting patient care and provider shortages. This trial aims to evaluate the use of the Transcendental Meditation Technique in improving burnout and wellbeing of HCPs over a 3-month trial period. A total of 130 HCPs will be recruited from participating Miami hospitals, with 65 HCPs receiving training in the use of the Transcendental Meditation Technique. The remaining participants will be part of a matched control group and will not receive any training. Study outcomes will be assessed at baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of an education outside the classroom (EOtC) intervention on adolescents' physical activity, school motivation, academic achievement, and wellbeing. The study will also investigate which pedagogical and didactical elements of EOtC are important to achieve more physical activity, school motivation, and wellbeing.
Study Design, Aims, and Population: The present study is a three-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT). The primary aim is to test the relative efficacy of two 8-week online interventions - Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) - in promoting diverse university students' social well-being (i.e., reduced loneliness, and enhanced social connectedness and perceived social support) compared to a Waitlist (WL) control group. The secondary aim is to examine the effects of CCT versus MBSR on the mental health of diverse university students compared to the WL group. Mental health is defined in this research as both positive mental health (i.e., happiness, positive emotions, meaning and purpose) and negative mental health (i.e., stress, anxiety, and depression). Additionally, another aim is to enroll 75% students of color and 50% male identifying students, whose social well-being and mental health is currently understudied, to better represent the sociodemographic diversity of the university student population in the literature. Study Rationale: The COVID-19 pandemic triggered widespread disruptions in social connections and relational bonds that robustly support a variety of mental and physical health-protective processes. University students' social well-being may have been especially impacted as universities provide a central context for socialization. At the same time, the pandemic exacerbated a pre-existing rise in cases of mental health conditions in university students. If found effective, online-based CCT and MBSR might serve as scalable psychological interventions to foster social thriving and mental health among diverse university students.
Burnout refers to feelings of exhaustion, negativism, and reduced personal efficacy resulting from chronic workplace stress. In healthcare, burnout leads to increased medical errors, poorer patient care and negatively affects professional development and retention. Burnout is a growing problem that begins early in medical training. Women and those underrepresented in medicine (URM) experience a disproportionate amount of burnout likely due to the cognitive load required to manage microaggressions, stereotypes, and harmful socially adopted narratives around efficacy. Professional coaching is a metacognition tool with a sustainable positive effect on physician well-being but typically relies on expensive consultants or time-consuming faculty development, often making it infeasible for medical training programs to offer. To overcome this barrier, the investigators created Better Together Physician Coaching (BT) a 6-month coaching program for women residents at the University of Colorado (CU). BT includes regular online group-coaching, written coaching, and weekly self-study modules delivered by physician life coaches (Co-PIs). A pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of 101 BT participants demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in burnout, self-compassion, and imposter syndrome in the intervention group. BT will be scaled up to a national level and evaluated with an RCT mirroring our pilot in 10+ graduate medical education (GME) programs for 1000+ participants coordinated and evaluated by our CU team. To accomplish this goal, the investigators set the following major objectives for this project: - Prepare to expand the BT program by teaming with a cohort of diverse physician coaches. - Implement BT in 10+ GME programs to serve 1000+ trainee participants with deliberate inclusion of institutions with diverse GME trainee populations serving geographically rural and/or medically underserved areas. - Assess our outcomes: primary: reduce burnout as measured by the Maslach Burnout Index (goal: 10% relative improvement), and secondary: self-compassion, imposter syndrome and moral injury. Outcome generalizability and program feasibility at a national level will also be analyzed, as will participant experience to gain a richer understanding of how BT may help trainees, in particular those URM. - Advance the field of coaching in GME through innovation and dissemination of evidence-based approaches to GME trainee wellbeing.
This study is a randomized controlled trial that will look at whether virtual, team-based exercise improves burnout, sense of community, and mentorship connections among medical students, residents, fellows, and physicians.
This study aims to investigate the effects of a single dose of psilocybin, delivered in the contextof pre- and post-dose psychotherapy, on symptoms of depression and burnout suffered by healthcare clinicians as a result of frontline work in the COVID pandemic.
