          Abstract

          Speech pathologists and audiologists work with the provision of health care, and as such, are susceptible to burnout syndrome. The objective of this study was to discuss scientific studies of burnout syndrome in speech pathologists and audiologists. A search was conducted across electronic databases using the following keywords: “burnout syndrome” and “speech pathologists/ audiologists.” The search retrieved 11 articles addressing burnout in this occupational category. Prevalence estimates of burnout syndrome in speech pathologists varied widely across studies. The scarcity of the literature and high methodological variability prevented a deeper analysis of the topic. Future studies are encouraged to pay closer attention to occupational stress and mental health in speech pathologists and audiologists in order to provide these professionals with specialized care.

          Burnout as a clinical entity--its importance in health care workers.

          J Felton (1998)
          Burnout, viewed as the exhaustion of physical or emotional strength as a result of prolonged stress or frustration, was added to the mental health lexicon in the 1970s, and has been detected in a wide variety of health care providers. A study of 600 American workers indicated that burnout resulted in lowered production, and increases in absenteeism, health care costs, and personnel turnover. Many employees are vulnerable, particularly as the American job scene changes through industrial downsizing, corporate buyouts and mergers, and lengthened work time. Burnout produces both physical and behavioural changes, in some instances leading to chemical abuse. The health professionals at risk include physicians, nurses, social workers, dentists, care providers in oncology and AIDS-patient care personnel, emergency service staff members, mental health workers, and speech and language pathologists, among others. Early identification of this emotional slippage is needed to prevent the depersonalization of the provider-patient relationship. Prevention and treatment are essentially parallel efforts, including greater job control by the individual worker, group meetings, better up-and-down communication, more recognition of individual worth, job redesign, flexible work hours, full orientation to job requirements, available employee assistance programmes, and adjuvant activity. Burnout is a health care professional's occupational disease which must be recognized early and treated.

            Burnout Syndrome and associated factors among medical students: a cross-sectional study

            Edméa Costa, Shirley Santos, Ana Santos … (2012)
            OBJECTIVES: To assess the prevalence and levels of burnout syndrome among medical students at the Universidade Federal de Sergipe-Brazil and to identify associated factors. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed with randomly selected students in 2009. The Maslach Burnout Inventory/Student Survey (MBI-SS) and a structured questionnaire on socio-demographic characteristics, the educational process, and individual aspects were used. Statistical evaluation of multiple variables was performed through backward stepwise logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The prevalence of burnout was 10.3% (n = 369). The prevalence was higher among those who did not have confidence in their clinical skills (Odds Ratio–OR = 6.47), those who felt uncomfortable with course activities (OR = 5.76), and those who did not see the coursework as a source of pleasure (OR = 4.68). CONCLUSION: There was a significant prevalence of burnout among the medical students studied. Three variables, in particular, were associated with burnout and were directly related to the medical education process. Preventive and intervention measures must be adopted, and longitudinal studies should be conducted.

              Produzir saúde suscita adoecimento? As contradições do trabalho em hospitais públicos de urgência e emergência

              Iana Vasconcelos Moreira Rosado, Gláucia Helena Araújo Russo, Eulália Maia (2015)
              ResumoA saúde resulta da interação de fatores biológicos, sociais, econômicos, políticos e culturais. Nessa perspectiva, objetivou-se analisar a relação entre o trabalho nos hospitais públicos de urgência e emergência e o processo de saúde-adoecimento dos profissionais que o executam. Tratase de uma pesquisa de natureza quantiqualitativa, na qual foram aplicados questionários com 240 profissionais (médicos, enfermeiros, assistentes sociais, psicólogos, dentistas, nutricionistas, fonoaudiólogos, fisioterapeutas e terapeutas ocupacionais). Os resultados demonstraram que os sujeitos reconhecem a importância do trabalho para garantia de condições favoráveis à saúde. Entretanto, destacam seus efeitos no desgaste físico e psíquico dos trabalhadores, por impulsionar estresse, ausência de hábitos saudáveis, hipertensão arterial, distúrbios do sono, osteomusculares e gastrintestinais. Torna-se premente enfrentar esta realidade, para potencializar a saúde dos profissionais e, por conseguinte, a qualidade da assistência ao usuário, visto que o adoecimento dos trabalhadores de saúde está fortemente relacionado com o modelo de saúde existente na sociedade.
