ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the current status of job burnout among anesthetists in Ningxia and to analyze its related risk factors.Methods A total of 310 anesthetists from 30 public hospitals in Ningxia were conducted to collect data on the job burnout by Maslach Burnout InventoryHuman Services Survey (MBI-HSS).The factors associated with severe job burnout and its three domains (high emotional exhaustion,high depersonalization and low personal accomplishment) were included in the multinomial logistic regression analysis.Results The incidence of job burnout and its three domains (high emotional exhaustion,depersonalization and low personal accomplishment) were 18 (5.81％) cases,134 (43.22％) cases,35 (11.29％) cases and 128 (41.29％) cases,respectively.Multinomial logistic regression analysis results indicated that the risk degree associated with job burnout was master and higher degree (OR=4.695,95％CI 1.556-4.172).The risk facts associated with three components of job burnout were work time per week [40-60 h (OR=4.420,CI 2.504-7.802);≥60 h (OR =7.469,95％CI 1.758-31.733)] and tertiary hospital (OR =1.847,95％oCI 1.112-3.069);master and higher degree (OR=2.306,95％CI 1.032-5.155),working years [6-15 years (OR=0.358,95％CI 0.135-0.949)] and cases of anesthesia per year [≥390 cases (OR =3.352,95％CI 1.301-8.639)];secondary hospital (OR =1.717,95％CI 1.045-2.823).Conclusion This survey indicates that job burnout exists among anesthetists in Ningxia and is mainly displayed in emotional exhaustion and low personal accomplishment domains.Master and higher degree tend to occur serve job burnout.
