“…In all groups psychological complaints improved, but there were no treatment effects on the outcomes perceived stress, general mental health, sleep quality and cognitive failures. At followup at 16 weeks there was no significant difference in RTW, but at 44 weeks the intervention group had significantly faster lasting RTW compared with the control group receiving clinical examination (31,32).…”

LAY ABSTRACTThere has been an increase in cases of sick leave due to stress in several European countries in recent decades. Chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder is linked with physiological and neurobiological changes, which may add to cognitive problems and long-term exhaustion. This narrative review summarizes the published evidence about the effectiveness of different interventions for the rehabilitation of patients with chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder. Cognitive behavioural interventions and multimodal interventions reduce symptoms. Workplace interventions often improve return to work. Better sleep is associated with improvement of symptoms and return to work. Interventions for improving sleep might therefore be important. For improving cognitive function, which is a main complaint among patients with chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder, aerobic and cognitive training may have some effect. Most interventions for the rehabilitation of chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder have only marginal effects. Therefore, it is important to prevent the onset of this disorder. Objective: An increase in numbers of cases of sick leave due to stress have been reported from several European countries during recent decades. Chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder is associated with physiological and neurobiological perturbations that may contribute to cognitive problems and longterm exhaustion. Rehabilitation of patients with chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder is therefore challenging. This narrative review summarizes the evidence regarding the effectiveness of different interventions for the rehabilitation of patients with chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder. Methods: Both structured and unstructured searches of research studies and reports were performed in order to find knowledge sources. The structured search had 2 predefined inclusion criteria: (i) chronic stress-induced exhaustion/clinical burnout/severe burnout/stress-induced exhaustion; and (ii) rehabilitation with improvement of symptoms and/or return to work as outcomes. Results: Cognitive behavioural interventions and multimodal interventions seem to reduce symptoms. Workplace interventions, either work-focused cognitive behavioural or workplace dialogue, seem to improve return to work. Sleep is important for both symptom improvement and return to work, and interventions for improving sleep might therefore be important. For improvement of cognitive function, which is a main complaint among patients with chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder, aerobic and cognitive training may have some effect. Conclusion: In summary, the few studies of highquality that examine interventions for rehabilitation of chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder show only marginal effects. Thus, it is important to prevent the onset of chronic stress-induced exhaustion disorder.
