| Sumario: | Introduction: Burnout syndrome is defined as a set of signs and symptoms that characterize the suffering of workers in their environment, which can be manifested through loss of motivation and professional dissatisfaction, defined by three dimensions: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and low professional accomplishment. The aim of this article is to present the occurrence of burnout, risk and protective factors in residents of Family Practice, whether Medical or Multi-professional Residency programs within the scope of PHC. Method: A longitudinal study interviewed, in five moments, all 33 residents enrolled in the year 2018 in programs related to Family Health at a public university in the countryside of São Paulo over the two years. The sociodemographic questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) were applied. Data were analyzed descriptively and using regression adjusted by the Poisson method to analyze the associations in a multidimensional way in two modalities, with a 95% confidence interval (95%CI). Results: Most participants were aged 25-29 years (48.5%), single (90.9%), from the southeast region of Brazil (84.9%) and female (81.8%). Participants had higher burnout indices in the second half of the second year, both when analyzing the 3 indexes (14.29%) and when analyzing 2 or 3 (60.17%). Young residents had higher burnout rates for the two criteria adopted, as well as physicians. In addition, there was an association between burnout and work overload (RR: 11.96 and 95%CI 1.96–73.04), not performing leisure activities (RR: 63.00; 95%CI 1.25–8.52), and psychiatric treatment (RR: 24.84 and 95%CI 1.01-606). Conclusion: The results obtained in this study are in line with the literature, presenting the time variable as a moment of greatest occurrence. The identification of burnout syndrome allows residency programs to develop prevention measures. Such measures ensure better professional performance, thus preparing graduates for the job market in a dignified and responsible manner. |
