Filter by:A recent survey exploring mental health in a large cohort of French medical students and young graduates (N = 21.768), observed that 68.2% of participants showed pathologic anxiety. A high level of depressive symptomatology was found in 27.7% of participants, while suicidal ideation was reported by 23.7%. Mindfulness Based Interventions are beneficial for health with a positive impact on mood, anxiety, and well-being. It thus can be hypothesized that such interventions could help to prevent anxio-depressive symptomatology in medical students. The implementation of prevention programs to promote resilience to stress and empathy among medical students is a priority, included in French National Strategy for Health. Efficacy of Mindfulness Based Interventions in French university must be studied to confirm and strengthen their development. The originality of this project consists in the collaboration of medical schools from different cities and the longitudinal follow-up. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a mindfulness-based therapy in burnout prevention in comparison to relaxation.
This research study seeks to understand how stress reduction training influences caregiver well-being, sleep, and physiological responses to stress. All participants are caregivers of persons with dementia. Participants will complete a 14-day, online stress-reduction intervention which involves approximately 25-30 minutes of daily practice.
Due to a number of factors, residents are susceptible to mistreatment (i.e., discrimination, harassment, and abuse) and toxic outcomes (i.e., burnout, attrition, and suicidality). Our work following the FIRST Trial identified considerable variation in program-level rates of resident-reported burnout, gender discrimination, racial discrimination, sexual harassment, and verbal abuse. To investigate these issues, the SECOND Trial will include a national mixed-methods analysis of and a pragmatic cluster-randomized controlled trial to improve the resident learning environment and trainee wellness.
Burnout is usually regarded as a response to chronic professional stressors like high workload, unfavorable emotion and complex interpersonal relationships. A high prevalence of burnout was found in many countries, and large-scale studies also showed high levels of burnout in Chinese nurses. As a stress-related syndrome, burnout was found to have detrimental influences on both psychological and physical health of nurses. Psychological problems such as depression and insomnia are verified to be associated with burnout. Endocrine dysfunction such as abnormal cortisol secretion rhythm occurred in shift-work nurses. Thyroid dysfunction was increasing and a sample of nurses were diagnosed with thyroid nodules and thyroid hormonal disorder during annual physical examination. Therefore, it is important to take measures to alleviate nurses' burnout to improve health. Positive psychological interventions are defined as treatment methods or intentional activities to enhance person's positive emotions, cognitions and behaviours. In these methods and activities, people are usually required to finish a systematic exercise. According to a recent meta-analysis, Positive psychological interventions showed effectiveness in enhancing participants' well-being and reducing depressive symptoms. Therefore, this study aims to explore whether positive psychological intervention could reduce burnout and improve health of nurses.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a standardized application of a physician-oriented CREATION Health curriculum is associated with reductions in burnout and perceived stress and improvements in well-being and empathy
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of 1) a stepped mental health care (MHC) intervention and 2) an integrated mental health care and vocational rehabilitation (VR) intervention for people on sick leave because of burnout, adjustment disorder and psychological stress in Denmark
An eight week mindfulness training for physicians in a community hospital setting, largely administered through web-casts, will decrease stress and burnout, increase job satisfaction, and develop lasting mindfulness skills in the participants.
Healthcare providers play an important role in helping patients be actively involved in treatment and recover from mental illness. But mental health clinicians, like other healthcare providers, are at risk for experiencing burnout—feeling emotionally drained from their work, having cynical thoughts toward patients and others, and feeling little accomplishment in their work. Burnout can lead to problems for the clinician including poor overall health, depression, and lower job satisfaction. Burnout also can impact how clinicians perform on the job; for example, people with high levels of burnout take more time off, show lower commitment to their job, and are more likely to quit or be fired. There is some evidence that burnout can affect the quality of care for patients, but very little rigorous research has tested this assumption. The purpose of our study is threefold. First, we will investigate how patients perceive burnout in clinicians and whether (and/or how) burnout impacts the care they receive. Next, we will test an intervention to reduce clinician burnout called Burnout Reduction: Enhanced Awareness, Tools, Handouts, and Education (BREATHE). BREATHE brings together tools that mental health clinicians are already familiar with, including relaxation and mindfulness exercises, setting boundaries, using social supports, and changing negative thought patterns and replacing them with more helpful ways of thinking. We have found this intervention effective in reducing burnout in other organizations, but have yet to study whether it also can improve patient outcomes. Clinicians (approximately 200) who participate will receive either the BREATHE intervention or training in motivational interviewing, which could also improve patient involvement in treatment and patient outcomes, but is unlikely to significantly reduce clinician burnout. We will also recruit up to 600 adult patients served by participating clinicians. We will survey clinicians and interview patients over a 12-month period after the intervention to determine how the intervention impacts clinician burnout and patient perceptions of care (relationship with the clinician, degree of autonomy in decision making), patient involvement in care, and outcomes (confidence in managing mental health, symptoms, functioning, and hope). Finally, this study will use a statistical procedure called Structural Equation Modeling to test a theoretical model of the relationship between burnout and patient outcomes. Findings from this study will show whether reducing clinician burnout can improve patient outcomes and the quality of care that patients receive. Our intervention will have the potential to be easily implemented in a variety of settings where burnout is a problem. Knowing how clinician burnout impacts patient outcomes, and whether improving burnout can improve patient care, can help improve the healthcare system.
Burnout patients show deficient working memory functioning. Several studies showed a training can increase working memory capacity. In the current study we explored whether training working memory can reduce burnout and burnout related symptoms and increase working memory capacity.
ICU caregivers face up to a demanding job with a high level of technical skills, a stressful environment, and a heavy work load. They run a high risk of developing burnout that can impact on their welfare, performance, and patient care. Burnout favours absenteeism and staff quitting their jobs, whereas the shortage of ICU caregivers already started. No randomised controlled intervention aimed at reducing such distresses had been run until now. This study allowed finding a new method of psychological support applicable in the special environment of ICU. Our findings suggest that psychologists specifically assigned to treat ICU caregivers might be beneficial on their burnout.
