Síndrome de Burnout em graduandos de odontologia em um campus em implantação

Abstract

Burnout Syndrome (SB) results from a chronic process of exposure to work stressors characterized by three dimensions: emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP) and low professional achievement (BRP). This study aimed to measure the prevalence of burnout syndrome in dentistry students in a campus in implantation and associated factors. This is a cross-sectional study with quantitative descriptive-analytical approach. Two instruments were used to collect the data; a) Portuguese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (Student Survey/MBI-SS), adapted, composed of fifteen questions and b) questionnaire for sociodemographic, academic, behavioral characteristics and student perception with 31 questions, both self-applicable. The STATA software version 12.0 was used for data analysis. A total of 253 dental students with a 67.9% adherence rate participated in the study. Data on the sociodemographic, academic and behavioral profile were: 73.71% female, 21-25 (59.17%), single (97.20%), without children (98.02%), living with friends ( 56.52%), without any type of aid / bag (74.70%). In the multivariate analysis, the subscales of the Burnout inventory were included, showing that the greater chance of Burnout was associated with having children (RP 1.15 95% CI [1.03: 1.30]), dissatisfaction with the course (RP 1.14 95% CI [1.07: 1.17] ), high depersonalization (RP 1.36 CI 95% [1.22: 1.52]), low professional achievement (RP 1.22 CI95% [1.03: 1.44]). The prevalence of SB was found in the present study. The prevalence of SB found in the present study was similar to that of the placebo group (p = 0.96, 95% CI 0.93 to 0.99) was low, however the research points to a complex set of factors that may constitute SB indicators in the process of training health professionals. Although many of the associated factors are considered to refer to the results point to interventions on younger students, contemplating strategies of support in terms of primary prevention. We will be able to advance in the elaboration in a contextualized way in the political-pedagogical relations with a view to improving the quality of life of the students and the institution health trainer
