ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Solid organ transplant (SOT) pharmacist burnout and well-being has not been described.METHODS:
A survey of SOT pharmacists was distributed to transplant pharmacy organization listservs. Burnout was assessed with the full 22 item Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey for Medical Personnel (MBI-HSS-MP) and well-being was assessed with the Mayo Well-Being Index (WBI). Logistic multivariate regression was constructed to identify risk factors for a composite burnout assessment.RESULTS:
In total, 230 responses were included (estimated response rate 36.2%). Survey participants were predominantly Caucasian (80.4%), female (79.1%), married/partnered (67.4%), and were within the first 5 years of practice (32.2%) as clinical pharmacist/specialists (87%). According to the MBI-HSS-MP, 63% met criteria for burnout. Comparing the groups with or without burnout, low quality of life (40.4% vs. 9.5%; P<.001), extreme fatigue (52.1% vs. 19%; P<.001), and likelihood of leaving the job for reasons other than retirement (38.5% vs. 10.7%; P<.001) were more common. The incidence of SOT pharmacists with WBI scores ≥ 5 (decreased well-being) was 26.5%. Among clinical pharmacists, risk factors for burnout included > 10 h per week of clinical duties outside of transplant (OR 2.669, P = .021) and extreme fatigue (OR 3.473, P<.001).CONCLUSIONS:
Pharmacist burnout in SOT practice was similar to that reported in various pharmacy specialties (53-61%), which impacts clinical workforce retention and personal well-being.Palabras clave
