ABSTRACT
Abstract Objective The primary objective of the present study is to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the prevalence of burnout syndrome among residents in orthopedic surgery. As a secondary objective, characteristics associated with the risk of developing the severe form of the syndrome were assessed. Method In the present cross-sectional study, graduating orthopedic residents were evaluated before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Medical students formed a control group. The participants answered a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the Brazilian validated version of the 36-item short-form health survey questionnaire (SF-36). Fifty-two residents were appraised before the pandemic and 19 during the pandemic. Results Forty-four (84.6%) residents fulfilled the criteria for burnout syndrome, and the severe form of the syndrome was present in 16 (30.7%). There was no significant change in the evaluated scores after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. There was also no increase in the prevalence of burnout syndrome or of the severe form of the syndrome. A negative correlation was observed between SF-36 items and the development of the severe form of burnout syndrome. Conclusion The prevalence of burnout syndrome and of the severe form of the disease was very high among residents in orthopedic surgery. The COVID-19 outbreak does not increase burnout in the residents.
Resumo Objetivo O objetivo principal do presente estudo é avaliar o impacto da pandemia de COVID-19 na prevalência da síndrome de burnout entre residentes de ortopedia Como objetivo secundário, foram avaliadas características associadas ao risco de desenvolver a forma grave da síndrome. MétodoNo presente estudo transversal, foram avaliados residentes antes e durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Estudantes de medicina formaram um grupo de controle. Os participantes responderam a um questionário sociodemográfico, ao Inventário Maslach Burnout, e à versão validada brasileira do Short Form Health Survey 36 (SF-36). Cinquenta e dois residentes foram avaliados antes da pandemia e 19 durante a pandemia. Resultados Quarenta e quatro (84,6%) residentes tinham critérios para síndrome de burnout, e a forma grave da síndrome estava presente em 16 (30,7%). Não houve alteração significativa nos escores avaliados após o início da pandemia de COVID-19. Também não houve aumento na prevalência da síndrome de burnout ou da forma grave da síndrome. Observou-se correlação negativa entre os itens SF-36 e o desenvolvimento da forma grave da síndrome de burnout. Conclusão A prevalência da síndrome de burnout e da forma grave da doença foi muito alta entre os residentes em cirurgia ortopédica. A pandemia de COVID-19 não aumentou o burnout nos residentes.

Objective To analyse the relationship between the personality and occupation tension of anesthesiologists.Methods One hundred anesthesiologists working at different hospitals in Shenzhen volunteered to complete the questionnaire.Ninety-one valid questionaires were recovered.The questionnaire survey included the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire and Job Content Questionnaire and anesthesia events.The standard scores of internal and external factor,stubborn factor,emotional stability factor,social support,sense of personal achievement and work demand/control ratio (D/C) were calculated.Results Internal and external factor (E) and stubborn factor (P) were negatively correlated with demand/control ratio (D/C).The correlation coefficients were-0.7805and-0.2375.There was no correlation between emotional stability factor (N) and D/C.Social support and sense of personal achievement were negatively correlated with D/C.The correlation coefficients were-0.225 and -0.264.More than 50％ of the study subjects suffered from mental tension during op.eration and fatique after night shift,overtime work and emergency operation.Conclusion Occupation tension is lower in extroverted and higher in introverted anesthesiologists and is also relatively low in those with stubborn personality.Strong social support and deep sense of personal achievement can lower occupation tension.
ABSTRACT
Este artigo aborda aspectos da prática atual da perícia médica na área de Reabilitação Profissional (RP) do Instituto Nacional do Seguro Social (INSS), bem como, descreve uma outra metodologia de trabalho aplicada em um projeto piloto coordenado pelo Ministério Público do Trabalho (MPT). Assim, pretende-se discutir as possibilidades de aperfeiçoamento deste serviço através da interação entre o médico perito e a equipe multiprofissional. O modelo apresentado proporciona avanços na qualidade da perícia com fins de reabilitação, contribuindo desta forma com a tomada de decisão baseada em evidências a partir de dados apresentados e discutidos em equipe.
This paper delves into current practices of the cross-examination of medical experts in the area of Occupational Rehabilitation (OR) of the National Institute of Social Security (INSS) and also describes another methodology applied in a pilot project coordinated by the Public Labor Ministry (MPT). Therefore this work intends to discuss the possibilities of improving this service by interactions between the medical expert and the multi-disciplinary team. The following model contributes to the clinical quality of rehabilitation, thus contributing to a decision based on evidence and data presented and discussed as a team.
