RESUMO
Identificou-se o burnout e fatores associados entre médicos de hospital público do Recife, Brasil, obtendo resposta de 158 profissionais (92,4% do total) para questionário autoaplicável (aspectos sociodemográficos, laborais e Maslach Burnout Inventory).

Mostraram associação: alto nível de EE e realizar "frequentemente/sempre" tarefas com muita rapidez e "nunca/às vezes" ter tempo suficiente; alto nível de DP e ter até dez anos de profissão e efetuar "frequentemente/sempre" tarefas com muita rapidez; baixo nível de RP e gênero feminino e "nunca/às vezes" ter tempo suficiente; burnout e executar "frequentemente/sempre" tarefas com muita rapidez, "nunca/às vezes" dispor de tempo suficiente, ser do gênero masculino e não ter expectativa de ascensão profissional. Para 37,3% duas das três dimensões indicavam alta propensão à síndrome. O burnout institui-se entre médicos, tornando premente a transformação das condições de trabalho.
ABSTRACT
This study identified factors associated with burnout among physicians at a public hospital in Recife, Brazil. A self-administered questionnaire (socio-demographic characteristics, working conditions and Maslach Burnout Inventory) was completed by 158 physicians (92.4%). Burnout was defined by a superposition of high scores in emotional exhaustion (EE) and depersonalization (DP) and low scores on personal accomplishment at work (PA). Chi-square and Fisher's exact test were used in the analysis and 5.1% had burnout. Female physicians were predominant in the sample (83.5%) especially those for longer than ten years in the profession (81.6%). High levels were found in EE (61.4%) and DP (36.7%) and low levels in PA (13.3%). There was an association between: high EE and "often/always" working very fast and "never/rarely" having enough time for tasks; high level of DP and working ten years in the profession and "often/always" doing tasks very fast; low level of PA and being female and "never/rarely" having enough time for tasks. Burnout and "often/always" working very quickly, "never/sometimes" having enough time for tasks, being male and having no expectation of professional growth. For 37.3%, two of the three dimensions indicate a high propensity to burnout, making transformation in working conditions a priority.
