“… 30 The operating room shutdowns during the COVID pandemic, the subsequent exodus of perioperative health care workers, and economic instability have further exacerbated the chronic physician supply–demand imbalance, work–life imbalance, and value conflict. 31,32 Some factors unique to perioperative operational burnout are as follows: 1) surgical logistics interplaying with the health care system, teams, patients, and patient’s families 33 ; 2) complex and changing regulatory and legal mandates on practice methods, procedures, pharmaceuticals, and equipment use 23 ; 3) multidepartmental initiatives that lack clarity for appropriate coordination 34 ; and 4) clinical pathways and workflow implementation from nonsurgical departments that also override physician judgments and autonomy despite the potential to reduce burnout. 35,36 …”

Perioperative care delivery is a patient-centered, multidisciplinary process. It relies heavily on synchronized teamwork from a well-coordinated team. Perioperative physicians—surgeons and anesthesiologists—face enormous challenges in surgical care delivery due to changing work environments, post-COVID consequences, shift work disorder, value conflict, escalating demands, regulatory complexity, and financial uncertainties. Physician burnout in this working environment has become increasingly prevalent. It is not only harmful to physicians’ health and well-being, but it also affects the quality and safety of patient care. Additionally, the economic costs associated with physician burnout are untenable due to the high turnover rate, high recruitment expenses, and potential early permanent exit from medical practice. In this deteriorating environment of unbalanced physician supply/demand, recognizing, managing, and preventing physician burnout may help preserve the system’s most valuable asset and contribute to higher quality and safety of patient care. Leaders in government agencies, health care systems, and organizations must work together to re-engineer the health care system for better physicians and patient care.
