Filter by:The role of digital technologies in healthcare is growing. Therefore, the roles and responsibilities of medical professionals are constantly changing and there is a need for continuous professional development. However, according to some authors, today's generation of doctors can be considered as "digital aborigines" [Aungst, Patel, 2020]. Low literacy in the field of e-health has become a major obstacle to digital transformation in developed countries, so digital skills training for healthcare professionals has gradually been introduced in the USA [Adler-Milstein, et al., 2014], Europe [Schreiweis, et al., 2019], Australia [Evolution of eHealth in Australia, 2016]. The most common methodologies for determining a doctor's digital literacy level are HITCOMP and TIGER. In particular, HITCOMP includes 5 areas of expertise: administration, research/biomedicine, direct patient care, computer science, engineering/information systems/information and communication technologies, as well as several levels: basic, basic, intermediate, advanced, expert [EU*US eHealth Work Project, 2020]. However, in our opinion, the digital competence of a doctor is not only the ability to work at a computer and use software. The successful development of the digital world is preceded by some psychological and emotional processes. It all starts with digital trust, that is, with people's confidence in the reliability and security of digital systems, processes and technologies. Without the conviction that the implementation and active use of certain IT services will be useful and will not bring harm, the successful launch of such technologies will be impossible. Provided that there is digital trust, a person in his daily life gradually gets experience using various technologies: payments, appointments with specialists, purchases, etc. Thus, basic digital literacy appears in conjunction with the rules of behavior in the online space (digital culture). And only after that, having skills positively supported by experience, the doctor begins to master digital competencies in his workplace. Computerization and automation of the healthcare system began relatively recently, traditional (paper) document management in medicine is familiar to everyone, but not optimal from the point of view of system management. Therefore, universal digitalization is perceived as something artificially imposed, increasing the workload of doctors, distracting from their main work and shifting the focus from truly therapeutic activities to filling out documentation. As a result, doctors have a range of negative emotions: fear, annoyance, anxiety, despondency, refusal of further contacts, etc., which lead to an aggravation of emotional burnout. The ability to recognize and live through these states, to come to an inner balance, to accumulate an internal resource for further development of new technologies - all this is possible under the condition of the development of emotional intelligence. By developing so-called soft skills, the doctor will be emotionally stable, capable of further advancement and learning new skills, and will easily cope with temporary difficulties and setbacks. And the final stage, having gained the opportunity to overcome internal obstacles, the doctor is ready to begin mastering specialized digital skills directly related to medical activities: work in medical information systems, remote monitoring, artificial intelligence, medical decision support systems. The result of the development of a doctor within this model will be not only digital literacy, but also the development of an internally stable personality that easily overcomes any obstacles not only in training, but also in communication with patients and colleagues.
Cancer is a disease that causes the most deaths worldwide and is challenging for patients and caregivers both physically and psychosocially. Physicians and nurses working in oncology clinics perform a demanding profession providing compassionate care and treatment to patients struggling with life-threatening diseases. The emotional cost of caring for patients diagnosed with cancer can lead to compassion fatigue, burnout, and decreased psychological well-being among healthcare professionals. For this reason, this research is planned as a randomized controlled study to examine the effect of Mindfulness meditation practice on compassion fatigue, burnout, and psychological well-being in physicians and nurses working in oncology units.
The question of the well-being, quality of life and mental health of care students is unanimously considered to be a central issue among young adults. According to the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research, there will be 194,752 care students in France in 2021-2022. The quality of life and well-being of health students can be affected at several levels. The first is mental health. In France, the mental health of these students has deteriorated considerably in recent years. According to a 2017 survey of 21,768 French medical students, 66% of them had an anxiety disorder and 27% a depressive syndrome. In addition, a number of risk factors have been identified for the mental health of health students. The aim of the study is to carry out a longitudinal evaluation of the mental health status of care students during their university studies in France through anxiety, depression and perceived stress.
The purpose of this study is to compare the profiles and domains of maladaptive early schemas in care professionals with burnout symptoms with care professionals without burnout symptoms and with care non-professionals with burnout symptoms.
This study aims to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercise on nurses' life satisfaction, comfort and burnout levels. Data will be collected by using Descriptive Characteristics Information Form, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Nurse Comfort Scale and Burnout Scale. The nurses in the intervention group will be asked to perform relaxation exercises. The nurses in the control group will not receive any intervention.
The following will be an open label controlled efficacy trial of the effects of longitudinal participation in an existing reflective writing program for medical students on burnout in physician assistant students.
The goal of this study is to determine whether mastery learning in communication skills can improve skills in a simulated environment and have translational improvements in outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does mastery learning improve skills in the simulation laboratory? 2. Does mastery learning improve clinical skills as seen by milestone performance? and 3 Does mastery learning improve burnout levels? The study is a multi-institutional randomized controlled trial of anesthesiology residents from five different residency programs. Participants will be randomized to mastery training in communication skills and standard of care, which is vicarious learning. Researchers will compare these two groups to see if mastery learning improves skills and translational outcomes.
It is common knowledge that music has a positive impact on human well-being. It is also well-known that medical residents are frequently stressed and burnt out. With these two thoughts in mind, the investigators want to explore how participating in a musical engagement program may positively impact medical resident well-being. The investigators hope to do this by hosting four informal musical engagement sessions with medical residents, which will involve playing instruments, improvising, and reading sheet music. To study the impact that this program has on participants, investigators will ask participants to complete a survey. The investigators hope to find that participants are positively impacted by participation in the study, in terms of factors like stress reduction and minimized burnout symptoms. Hopefully, the study results may inform residency program curriculum designers in the future may incorporate music into wellness programming.
FOREST is a positive emotion skills program designed to target mental health and coping needs for frontline violence prevention workers at READI Chicago. Ten skills are taught over a period of nine months during existing meetings and wellness activities, as well as in online modules in READI's Learning Management System (LMS). Through infusing the FOREST skills throughout READI, we hope to inspire organizational culture change that will emphasize the importance of wellbeing and enhance resilience, therefore reducing burnout and turnover.
The goal of this preference-based pilot study will be to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and impact of a 12-week exercise intervention on oncology care provider burnout, compassion fatigue, and well-being. Participants will be divided into one of three exercise groups. Group assignment will be based on participant preference. Group 1: Supervised circuit-based resistance exercise (2 days/week) Group 2: Supervised circuit-based resistance exercise (2 days/week) + moderate-to-high intensity home-based walking/light jogging program (3 days/week) Group 3: Self-paced home-based walking program (3 days/week)
