A recent study conducted by the Division of Urology aimed to determine the prevalence of burnout in pediatric urology fellows and identify factors associated with higher levels of burnout. The study found that nearly 20% of pediatric urology fellows experienced high levels of burnout, while over 40% experienced moderate to high levels of burnout. Factors such as the number of nights on call per month and the number of projects required in fellowship were significantly associated with higher levels of burnout. Strategies used by fellows to combat burnout included spending quality time with family and friends, getting enough sleep, exercising, and watching TV/movies. The study suggests that personalized strategies can be developed to prevent burnout in pediatric urology fellows throughout their training and careers. [Extracted from the article] |
