  • Burnout and Stress Among Emergency Physicians in the Kingdom of Bahrain Using the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) and Short Form-stress Overload Scale (SOS-S)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Feras Abuzeyad, Luma Bashmi, Priya Das, Abrar Al Ansari, Stephanie Hsu, Ghada Al Qasim, Naser Mohamed Ali Mansoor, Abdulla Almusalam
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: Emergency physicians (EPs) are exposed to various stressors that lead to burnout, and these factors have never been examined in the emergency departments (EDs) of the Kingdom of Bahrain. The study identifies the prevalence rates and associated variables for burnout and stress among EPs in Bahrain’s EDs.Methods: A cross sectional study involving 134 EPs working in the ED for the three major tertiary hospitals completed the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) and Stress Overload Scale-Short Form (SOS-S).Results: The survey had a response rate of 86.7% (n=116). The prevalence rate was 81.0% for personal burnout (M: 63.0, SD: 22.4; CI: 67.0% - 83.3%), 69.8% for work-related burnout (M: 60.3, SD: 21.6; CI: 60.6%- 78.0%), and 40.5% for patient-related burnout (M: 43.1, SD: 25.4; CI: 31.5% - 50.0%). Approximately 23.9% EPs were at high risk for illness. The CBI and SOS-S subscales had statistically significant correlations, illustrating that higher personal, work-related, and patient-related burnout was associated with higher personal Vulnerability, Event load, and stress overload. Being female, Bahraini, Chief Resident or Consultant, working >50 hours per week, taking at least one sick leave in the last year, and experiencing sleep disturbances and workplace violence were all contributing factors to higher burnout and stress levels. Conclusion: The prevalence of burnout and stress among the EPs in Bahrain is high and reflects a significant problem. Several demographic and occupational factors are closely related to burnout and stress, and need to be addressed to higher authorities in order to implement protective measures.

  • Resilience, the positive flipside of Vulnerability? Looking in another direction
    2013
    Co-Authors: Damienne Provitolo, Magali Reghezza-zitt
    Abstract:

    Human societies have to cope with different kind of hazards. Extreme physical Events constantly cause major disasters (Quarantelli et al., 2006), like Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the earthquake that stroke Haiti in 2010, the flooding in Draguignan (France) in 2010, the tidal wave witch destroys the coastal Japanese areas in 2011, the recent hurricane Sandy. Hazards and disasters have been analysed in a great deal of research through three main concepts: hazard, Vulnerability and resilience. The link between resilience and Vulnerability is questionable, since resilience is often mistaken for the opposite of Vulnerability. This opposition is not as simple as it first appeared: societies or places can be both highly vulnerable and highly resilient. Our paper aims at deconstructing the concept of resilience. We will argue that this one term has two different meanings. In risk analysis and engineering practices, resilience is the exact contrary of biophysical Vulnerability, whereas in social sciences, this concept is included in the very idea of Vulnerability. That's why we propose a new systemic risk model based on the notion of Resiliencery Vulnerability. This model questions the trio of Vulnerability-Event-Resilience to understand the complex relationships that exist between resilience and Vulnerability.
