“…Mindfulness training can help alleviate stress by providing coping mechanisms (Barbosa et al, 2013;Bullock et al, 2013). Practice competence is a function both of the individual doctor's training and the organisational culture in which that doctor operates (Kilminster, Zukas, Quinton, & Roberts, 2011), and so no training program can expect to fully prepare a doctor to function well right from the start in a new setting at an advanced stage of knowledge.…”

Background: We interviewed graduates from the first two cohorts of a postgraduate medical program that had a senior year longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC) in a practice setting in rural New South Wales, Australia to determine how well their training prepared them to be junior doctors (3-4 years after graduation), and what aspects of that training they thought were particularly useful. Methods: In-depth interviews. Results: Fourteen junior doctors were interviewed. Participants reported feeling well prepared in ability to develop close relationships with clinical supervisors, good clinical and procedural skills, ability to work autonomously and work in teams, knowledge of health systems, ability to ensure self-care, and professionalism. Consensus view was that a rural placement was an excellent way to learn medicine for a variety of reasons including relationships with clinicians, less competition for access to patients, and opportunities to extend their clinical skills and act up to intern level. Conclusion: The advantages we found in the training these junior doctors received which prepared them well for internship were integral both to the longitudinal, unstructured placement, and to the fact that it was carried out in a rural area. The two aspects of these placements appear to act synergistically, reinforcing the learning experience.

“…Although the most frequently proposed therapy method was mindfulness, it proved to have different effects on different study groups. In the 301 examined students no significant changes in the level of burnout were detected [5,6] while in 25 nurses the effects were significant [15]. The authors (Khoury at al.)…”

SummaryThere is a growing number of publications examining the influence of different forms of therapy on reducing the risk of job burnout affecting various social groups and there is a need to assess and systematise available knowledge. Three electronic databases were searched for the purpose of this review over the 2000-2015 search period. The inclusion criterion was the influence of the selected form of therapy on reducing the risk of job burnout. Of the 235 selected articles, 22 met the inclusion criterion. In 77.3% of publications job burnout syndrome was assessed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Researchers also used the De Utrechtse Burnout Schaal (UBOS) questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory -Dutch Version (MBI-NL), and their own questionnaires. The most commonly applied therapies were mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Owing to significant differences in methodology between studies, it is difficult to attempt an objective comparison. In most studies (64.64%) authors managed to achieve the intended reduction of burnout. It is necessary that studies of burnout include research projects treating the study group in a multidimensional, biopsychosocial manner, taking into account biological and psychological factors with an accompanying social reflection. therapies for burnout, Maslach Burnout Inventory, occupational diseases, psychological stressThe burnout syndrome is a mental health disorder (the qualifications of ICD-10, Z73.0) which comprises three dimensions: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and a reduced sense of personal accomplishment. The first, emotional exhaustion, is a state of depletion of an individual's emotional resources, the second denotes a negative, cynical and dehumanized attitude towards people who are the recipients of the individual's services, and the third refers to a reduced sense of personal achievement and effectiveness as well as lower self-esteem [1]. With the ever-accelerating pace of life and ever-higher stress levels the prevention of job burnout is an important public health issue. It might have a beneficial effect on work absence caused by sick leave, which in turn translates into an important economic dimension [2]. The spread of this phenomenon cannot be clearly defined. The problem is its qualitative nature and the absence of clear differentiating criteria that would facilitate its diagnosis. It is highly probable, however, that the problem concerns the majority of contemporary society [3]. It seems that the knowledge regarding job burnout and the methods of its reduction is still unsystematized and insufficient. A growing number of authors are trying to achieve a better understanding of the problem, hoping that this will help in developing more efficient programs aimed at preventing

“…Aunque hay una aceptación general del vínculo positivo entre la empatía, los pacientes y la competencia clínica, todavía existen algunas inconsistencias entre la empatía y el bienestar de las enfermeras 55 . Por ejemplo, hay resultados controvertidos sobre las correlaciones entre empatía y estrés laboral [56][57] .…”

Introducción: Un número de experiencias paranormales aparecen relatadas por enfermeros que consisten en visiones del lecho de muerte y otros fenómenos anómalos. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el grado de ocurrencia de ciertas experiencias perceptuales inusuales en entornos hospitalarios, las denominadas Experiencias Anómalo/Paranormales con frecuencia reportadas por médicos y enfermeras en el ámbito hospitalario. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio transversal y analítico. Se administraron cinco escalas, Encuesta de Experiencias Anómalo/Paranormales para Enfermeras, Maslach Burnout Inventory, Tellegen Absorption Scale, Inventario Oxford-Liverpool de Sentimientos y Experiencias, y Test de Empatía Cognitivo Afectiva a 344 enfermeros de 36 hospitales y centros de salud de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Resultados: Las experiencias más comunes de las enfermeras son: sensación de presencia y/o apariciones, oír ruidos, voces o diálogos, llantos o quejas, experiencias intuitivas y extrasensoriales en relación con sus pacientes, o bien la recepción de esas experiencias por parte de sus propios pacientes, tales como experiencias cercanas a la muerte, prácticas de oración o intervenciones religiosas con sanaciones espontáneas, y otras experiencias anómalas relacionadas con niños. Discusión: Las enfermeras con experiencias también tendieron a mayor absorción, lo cual se confirmó; una tendencia a la esquizotipia y mayor empatía cognitiva y comprensión emocional que en enfermeras sin experiencias. Conclusiones: Aunque no se confirmó la hipótesis según la cual, enfermeras con experiencias tienden a experimentar mayor estrés laboral, sin embargo se encontró que las enfermeras con experiencias obtuvieron una puntuación más alta en el factor Despersonalización que las enfermeras sin experienciasCómo citar este artículo: Parra A.
