[Evaluation of burnout syndrome among doctors in training at the Ibn Rochd University Hospital, Casablanca].

METHODS: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study of a sample of 300 physicians using self-administered questionnaire over the period 2013- 2014. Burnout has been operationally defined through a French translation of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI).

RESULTS: A total of 191 physicians participated in the study (response rate 63.7%) with a female predominance at 79.1% and an average age of 26.7 years (N = 3). The average scores of sub-dimensions of the MBI: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal fulfilment were (33.7±10.7), (12.2±6.5) and (30.6±8.3) respectively. 31.8% of participants suffered from severe burnout. It was associated with communication problems within the healthcare team (p < 0.01), insufficient accompaniment (p < 0.05), dissatisfaction among seniors (p = 0.01), fear of making medical errors (p<0.05), use of a psychotherapist (p<0.001), use of psychotropic drugs (p = 0.001), anxiety disorders (p < 0.01), depression (p < 0.01) and suicidal ideation (p < 0.05). Protective factors were: sense of equity within the healthcare team (p < 0.01) and practice of leisure (p<0.05). Changing career direction was associated with severe burnout (p<0.05).

CONCLUSION: These results are consistent with those of previous studies and justify the importance of a prevention program at different levels.
