Forecasting factors affecting mental health and emotional burnout in physicians of specialized departments

The purpose of the work is to study the characteristics of professional burnout in general practitioners and surgeons of general and specialized profiles. The study included: Group 1 – gastroenterologists (n = 52 participants); Group 2 – cardiologists (n = 58 participants); Group 3 – oncologists of the therapeutic profile (n = 48 participants); Group 4 – general surgeons (n = 71 participants); Group 5 - cardiovascular surgeons (n = 30 participants); Group 6 – surgical oncologists (n = 65 participants); Group 7 – the control group – employees of engineering, technical, and economic profiles, not related to medical organizations (healthy) (n = 75). The assessment of the level of professional burnout in medical workers was carried out using the MBI method developed by K. Maslach and S. Jackson, as adapted by N.E. Vodopyanova. The obtained data indicate that when identifying risk factors for an increase in the level of professional burnout among healthcare workers providing medical care in general therapeutic, general surgical, and specialized hospitals, there is the need to use specialized rehabilitation measures for medical workers with relaxation techniques, art therapy, as well as professional adaptation programs, physiotherapeutic techniques, such as electrosleep and reflexology, and, if possible, resort treatment in health care centers, local sanatoriums, etc. with visits to psychotherapy offices, as well as psychopharmacological medications.
