ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Chronic workplace stress and burnout are impediments to physicians' professional fulfillment, healthcare organizations' efficiency, and patient care quality/safety. General surgery residents are especially at risk due to the complexity of their training. We report the protocol of a metaanalysis of chronic stress and burnout among Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-affiliated general surgery residents in the era after duty-hour reforms, plus downstream effects on their health and clinical performance.Methods:
The proposed systematic review and metaanalysis (PROSPERO registration CRD42021277626) will synthesize/pool data from studies of chronic stress and burnout among general surgery residents at ACGME-affiliated programs. The timeframe under review is subdivided into three intervals (a) after the 2003 duty-hour restrictions but before 2011 reforms, (b) after the 2011 reforms but before the coronavirus pandemic, and (c) the first 3 years after the pandemic's outbreak. Only studies reporting outcomes based on validated instruments will be included. Qualitative studies, commentaries/editorials, narrative reviews, and studies not published in English will be excluded. Multivariable analyses will adjust for sample characteristics and the methodological quality of included studies.Conclusions:
The metaanalysis will yield evidence reflecting experiences of North American-based general surgery residents in the years after ACGME-mandated duty-hour restructuring.
