Abstract

Background and ObjectivesTo investigate the prevalence of burnout profiles and their contributing factors in European neurology residents, junior neurologists, and research fellows.MethodsThe members of the Resident and Research Fellow Section (RRFS) of the European Academy of Neurology were surveyed using standardized instruments for burnout, job satisfaction, social support, depression, work-related fatigue, work-life integration, and impact of life events, from September 1, 2020, to January 6, 2021.ResultsThe response rate was 23.1% (332 responders of 1,439 contacted RRFS members); the median age of participants 30 years, with 61.5% being female. Our analysis revealed that 73.9% of the responders showed a perturbation in the Maslach Burnout Inventory dimensions, thus fulfilling the criteria for a dysfunctional phenotype within the burnout spectrum: burnout (22.6%), overextended (26.1%), ineffective (21.0%), and disengaged (4.1%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that elevated number of night shifts per month, work-related fatigue, and low professional satisfaction are independent risk factors for burnout. Being a certified neurologist, working in an academic environment, and a higher job satisfaction are associated with the engaged profile, a productive state characterized by high energy, strong involvement, and a sense of efficacy.DiscussionBurnout experience is highly prevalent among neurology residents, junior neurologists, and research fellows in Europe. The profile-based approach in this survey captures the multifaceted nature of burnout experience, therefore highlighting mitigating strategies that can be tailored to the distinct dysfunctional burnout profile.
