Incidence and Cause of Occupational Burnout Syndrome Among Sonographers
Purpose
To investigate the incidence of occupational burnout syndrome among sonographers and assess any associations between gender, number of hours worked per week, and burnout syndrome.
Methods
This research used a cross-sectional survey approach that replicated the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory, a leading measure of burnout, and surveyed a national sample of sonographers who were members of the Society for Diagnostic Medical Sonography.
Results
To measure the total score of burnout, disengagement and exhaustion subscales were added together, with a possible minimum score of 16 and a possible maximum score of 64. The results yielded a minimum score of 17 and a maximum score of 64. The mean score was 43.11 (SD = 7.02), indicating moderate levels of burnout overall.
Discussion
A moderate level of burnout was expressed with exhaustion being more prevalent than disengagement. Significantly higher burnout scores were reported among sonographers who worked more hours per week demonstrating a positive difference between burnout and work hour accrual per week. There were no significant differences between gender and burnout syndrome.
Conclusion
Although this review demonstrated moderate levels of burnout, acknowledging the issue is necessary to ensure workplace stress is managed before it becomes a significant issue. Further research should assess how occupational burnout can affect retention in the profession
