Associated factors of professional burnout among faculty members of graduate stricto sensu programs in language teaching and linguistics: a cross-sectional study

Abstract BACKGROUND: The burnout syndrome can be avoided and/or have its signs and symptoms reduced by knowing the five associated factors that help identify the health and working conditions of the professors of graduate programs. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the factors associated with burnout among faculty members of graduate stricto sensu programs. DESIGN AND SETTING: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 585 faculty members of Graduate Programs in Language Teaching and Linguistics in Brazil. METHODS: Data were collected through an online questionnaire. The outcomes were the dimensions of burnout and its related factors identified through multiple templates of logistic regression. RESULTS: Faculty members with increased chances of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization mentioned the use of medications due to labor activities. The negative influence of pace and intensity of work, thoughts about quitting the program, and having to produce three or more scientific articles were associated with higher chances of emotional exhaustion, while having to achieve nine hours per week in undergraduate programs was related to reduced personal accomplishment. Having a conjugal relationship, satisfaction with health and work, post-doctoral degree, autonomy, and good interpersonal relationships with faculty members of the program reduced the chances of emotional exhaustion. Reduced chances of depersonalization occurred among those who were satisfied with work, had good interpersonal relationships with advisees and faculty members, and received productivity funding. CONCLUSION: Sociodemographic, health, and occupational factors related to the dimensions of burnout were identified.

Violência laboral contra professores da rede pública de nível fundamental e médio / Workplace violence against teachers of public elementar and high schools

O presente estudo teve por objetivo identificar a prevalência da violência laboral perpetrada contra professores da rede pública de nível fundamental e médio. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com dados coletados entre julho de 2018 e fevereiro de 2019, com 200 professores de 18 escolas públicas urbanas, de um município do interior do estado do Paraná, Brasil. Análises descritivas e inferenciais foram realizadas e razões de prevalência (RP) calculadas. A prevalência de atos violentos físicos e verbais foi de 3% e 28%, respectivamente, sendo cometidos principalmente por alunos do sexo masculino. A violência verbal foi mais frequente contra professores do sexo masculino (p=0,021; RP=1,12) e com mais de 40 anos (p=0,034; RP=1,10), ocorreu mais de três vezes no último ano, dentro da instituição e configurou-se em experiências que geraram perda da satisfação com o trabalho, permeadas por sentimento de injustiça e impotência. Pode-se concluir que os professores sofreram violência laboral de natureza física e verbal nos ambientes educacionais. (AU)

The objective of the present study is to identify theprevalence of workplace violence against teachers in public elementary and high schools. This is a cross-sectional study with data collected from July 2018 to February 2019, with 200 teachers from 18 urban public schools, in a municipality located in the center-west of the state of Paraná, Brazil. Descriptive and inferential analyses were performed, and prevalence ratios (PR) were calculated. The prevalence of physical and verbal violent acts was 3% and 28%, respectively, and male students were the main agents. Verbal violence was more frequent against male teachers (p=0.021; PR=1.12) and those over 40 years old (p=0.034; PR=1.10), it occurred more than three times in the past year, within the educational environment and were events that resulted in loss of professional satisfaction associated with feelings of injustice and powerlessness. The study concluded that teachers suffered physical and verbal workplace violence in educational environments.(AU)

Effectiveness of the interventions against workplace violence suffered by health and support professionals: A meta-analysis. / Efetividade das intervenções contra violência no trabalho sofrida por profissionais de saúde e apoio: metanálise.

OBJECTIVE: to assess the effectiveness of the interventions targeted at preventing and reducing the workplace violence suffered by health and support professionals. METHOD: a systematic review with meta-analysis conducted in eight databases and in the gray literature. Risk of bias was assessed by means of the Cochrane tools and certainty of the evidence, through Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. The analysis was performed in a descriptive manner and through the meta-analysis, including a heterogeneity assessment. RESULTS: a total of 11 randomized and quasi-randomized studies were eligible, of which six (54.5%) implemented individual skills, four used a multiple approach (36.4%) and one (9.1%) resorted to governmental actions. Four studies (36.4%) exerted a positive and significant effect on reducing violence. Risk of bias was classified as high or uncertain. The meta-analysis was performed with two studies that tested individual skill (intervention group) versus individual skill (comparator group), although there was no scientific evidence (95% CI: -0.41 - 0.25, p=0.64) for the violence prevention/reduction outcome. CONCLUSION: this review did not obtain a high level of evidence in the prevention or reduction of workplace violence. The reduced number of randomized trials, the lack of studies with low risk of bias and the high consistency may have been factors that hindered recommending effective interventions.

Tuberculosis among People Living on the Street and Using Alcohol, Tobacco, and Illegal Drugs: Analysis of Territories in Extreme Vulnerability and Trends in Southern Brazil.

(1) Background: Tuberculosis presents an epidemiological trend toward inequality, especially among people in social exclusion and situations of vulnerability. This study aimed to analyze territories with a concentration of people diagnosed with tuberculosis in a street situation and who partake in chronic use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs. We also analyzed trends in this health condition in southern Brazil. (2) Methods: Ecological study, developed in the 399 municipalities of Paraná, southern Brazil, with all tuberculosis cases in the homeless population registered in the Information System of Notifiable Diseases between 2014 and 2018. For data analysis, we used descriptive statistics, the Prais-Winsten autoregression method for the time series, and the Getis-Ord Gi technique* for spatial analysis. (3) Results: in total, 560 cases were reported. We found a predominance of alcohol, smoking, and illicit drug users, with an increasing trend in the state and clusters of spatial risk in the East health macro-region. (4) Conclusions: We observed territories with critical levels of highly vulnerable people who use psychoactive substances and are in a street situation. The results highlight the importance of incorporating public policies of social protection for these individuals and resolutive health services that receive these cases and assist in eradicating TB.

Workaholism and burnout among stricto sensu graduate professors.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association of excessive work and compulsive work with the dimensions of the burnout syndrome in masters and doctoral professors of Languages, Literature, and Linguistics in Brazil. METHODS: Cross-sectional study carried out with 585 permanent professors of stricto sensu graduate studies in Languages, Literature, and Linguistics in Brazil. Data collection took place between February and August 2019, by an online questionnaire. The outcomes of this study were the compulsive work and excessive work dimensions of the Dutch Work Addiction Scale, the Maslach Burnout Inventory TM dimensions and their associated factors, identified by multiple logistic regression models. RESULTS: Professors with a high level of excessive work (29.40%) had 2.75 times the chance of high emotional exhaustion and 2.08 times the chance of high depersonalization. Regarding professors with a high level of compulsive work (8.03%), they had 4.88 times the chance of high emotional exhaustion and 2.97 times the chance of high depersonalization. No association of excessive work and compulsive work with low professional fulfillment was identified. CONCLUSION: The results showed a statistically significant association of excessive work and compulsive work with high emotional exhaustion and high depersonalization, allowing managers and professors to reflect the criteria that guide their work processes, to adopt management models, institutional regulatory policies, and strategies to improve the working conditions and health of professors.

Interaction between Work and Metabolic Syndrome: A Population-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a clinical condition and a relevant risk factor in the development of cardiovascular diseases; it occurs as a result of lifestyle factors, e.g., work. The aim of this research was to estimate the interaction between work and MS among primary health care (PHC) nursing professionals in the state of Bahia, Brazil. A sectional multicentered study carried out in 43 municipalities in Bahia, whose study population consisted of nursing professionals. The exposure variables were occupation, professional exhaustion, and working time, and the outcome variable was MS. Interaction measures based on the additivity criteria were verified by calculating the excess risks due to the interactions and according to the proportion of cases attributed to the interactions and the synergy index. The global MS prevalence is 24.4%. There was a greater magnitude in the exposure group regarding the three investigated factors (average level occupation, professional exhaustion, and working time in PHC for more than 5 years), reaching an occurrence of 44.9% when compared to the prevalence of 13.1% in the non-exposure group (academic education, without professional burnout, and working time in PHC for up to 5 years). The study's findings showed a synergistic interaction of work aspects for MS occurrence among PHC nursing professionals.

Burnout syndrome and workplace violence among nursing staff: a cross-sectional study

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Among healthcare professionals, nursing workers are the most prone to becoming victims of workplace violence and present the highest burnout levels. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between burnout syndrome and workplace violence among nursing workers. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study carried out at a teaching hospital in southern Brazil. METHODS: This study involved 242 nursing workers. We collected data over a six-month period using a sociodemographic and occupational survey, the Survey Questionnaire Workplace Violence in the Health Sector and the Maslach Burnout Inventory - General Survey. For occupational violence, we selected the Survey Questionnaire Workplace Violence in the Health Sector. Burnout syndrome was evaluated using the Maslach Burnout Inventory - General Survey. The data were analyzed in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Categorical variables were described as absolute and relative frequencies and numerical variables in terms of central trend and dispersion measurements. For data analysis, we applied descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: The multiple models indicated that the workers who had experienced verbal abuse, physical violence and concern about workplace violence over the past 12 months had significantly higher chances of presenting high emotional exhaustion (P < 0.05) and depersonalization (P < 0.05) and low professional accomplishment (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Occurrence of violence significantly increased the chances of great emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and low professional achievement, within burnout syndrome. Therefore, workplace violence prevention strategies need to be put in place to provide workers with a safe workplace in which to conduct their activities.

Após a intervenção, aumentou em 46,3% (p= 0,690) a ocorrência de atividade física suficiente e diminuiu em 78,0% (p= 0,000) o consumo de bebida alcóolica, e em 1,4% (p= 0,005) o índice de massa corporal. Tais mudanças nos indicadores estudados sugerem a efetividade do gerenciamento clínico por telemonitoramento em estimular e manter hábitos saudáveis.

To verify the effectiveness of clinical follow-up by telemonitoring of beneficiaries with chronic diseases in supplementary health. Quasi-experimental study, from 2019, with beneficiaries of a medium-sized health plan operator in Paraná, state of Paraná. The only non-randomized group had 109 adults, independent for basic activities and who participated in this educational intervention, to support self-management, by monthly phone calls, coordinated by a nurse, for 12 months. Behavioral and clinical indicators were extracted from electronic medical records and compared using McNemar, Wilcoxon and paired t-tests. In the beginning, participants with healthy eating habits predominated. After the intervention, the occurrence of sufficient physical activity increased by 46.3% (p= 0.690) and the consumption of alcoholic beverages decreased by 78.0% (p= 0.000) and by 1.4% (p= 0.005), the body mass index. Such changes in the studied indicators suggest the effectiveness of clinical follow-up by telemonitoring in stimulating and maintaining healthy habits.

Via aérea avançada: sentimentos vivenciados por pacientes na pré e pós extubação endotraqueal / Advanced airway: feelings experienced by patients in pre and post endotracheal extubation / Vía aérea avanzada: sentimientos experimentados por pacientes en pre ypost extubación endotraqueal

Objetivo: desvelar os sentimentos vivenciados por pacientes internados em um pronto socorro no período pré e pós extubação endotraqueal.Métodos:pesquisa qualitativa desenvolvida com pacientes de um Hospital Universitário do Estado do Paraná, no primeiro semestre de 2017. A coleta de dados se deu por meio de sete entrevistas semiestruturadas, que foram submetidas a análisede conteúdo temática. Resultados: identificaram-se quatro categorias temáticas que desvelaram sentimentos de uma experiência traumática pela dor, falta de diálogo, desconhecimento do profissional que estava prestando os cuidados, dificuldade de comunicação e angústia. Considerações finais: torna-se importante humanizar a assistência de maneira a perceber que o paciente não é mais um corpo doente e, sim, um ser humano holístico que deve ser atendido para além dos procedimentos meramente técnicos.

Objective: to reveal the feelings experienced by patients hospitalized in an emergency room in the period before and after endotracheal extubation. Methods:qualitative research developed with patients at a University Hospital in the State of Paraná, in the first half of 2017. Data collection took place through seven semi-structured interviews, which were subjected to thematic content analysis. Results:four thematic categories were identified that revealed feelings of a traumatic experience due to pain, lack of dialogue, lack of knowledge of the professional who was providing care, communication difficulties and anguish. Final considerations:it is important to humanize care in order to realize that the patient is no longer a sick body, but a holistic human being who must be attended to beyond merely technical procedures.

Burnout syndrome and workplace violence among nursing staff: a cross-sectional study.

BACKGROUND: Among healthcare professionals, nursing workers are the most prone to becoming victims of workplace violence and present the highest burnout levels. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between burnout syndrome and workplace violence among nursing workers. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study carried out at a teaching hospital in southern Brazil. METHODS: This study involved 242 nursing workers. We collected data over a six-month period using a sociodemographic and occupational survey, the Survey Questionnaire Workplace Violence in the Health Sector and the Maslach Burnout Inventory - General Survey. For occupational violence, we selected the Survey Questionnaire Workplace Violence in the Health Sector. Burnout syndrome was evaluated using the Maslach Burnout Inventory - General Survey. The data were analyzed in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Categorical variables were described as absolute and relative frequencies and numerical variables in terms of central trend and dispersion measurements. For data analysis, we applied descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: The multiple models indicated that the workers who had experienced verbal abuse, physical violence and concern about workplace violence over the past 12 months had significantly higher chances of presenting high emotional exhaustion (P < 0.05) and depersonalization (P < 0.05) and low professional accomplishment (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Occurrence of violence significantly increased the chances of great emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and low professional achievement, within burnout syndrome. Therefore, workplace violence prevention strategies need to be put in place to provide workers with a safe workplace in which to conduct their activities.

Efetividade das intervenções contra violência no trabalho sofrida por profissionais de saúde e apoio: metanálise / Effectiveness of the interventions against workplace violence suffered by health and support professionals: A meta-analysis / Efectividad de las intervenciones contra la violencia laboral que sufren los profesionales de la salud y de apoyo: metanálisis

Resumo Objetivo: avaliar a efetividade das intervenções direcionadas à prevenção e redução da violência no trabalho sofrida por profissionais de saúde e apoio. Método: revisão sistemática com metanálise realizada em oito bases de dados e na literatura cinzenta. O risco de viés foi realizado por meio das ferramentas da Cochrane e a certeza da evidência pelo Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. A análise foi realizada de forma descritiva e pela metanálise, incluindo avaliação da heterogeneidade. Resultados: 11 estudos aleatorizados e quasi-aleatorizados foram elegíveis, dos quais seis estudos (54,5%) implementaram habilidades individuais, quatro multiabordagem (36,4%) e um (9,1%) ações governamentais. Quatro estudos (36,4%) tiveram efeito positivo e significativo na redução da violência. O risco de viés foi classificado como alto ou incerto. A metanálise foi realizada com dois estudos que testaram habilidade individual (grupo intervenção) versus habilidade individual (grupo comparador), porém não houve evidência científica (IC 95%: -0,41 a 0,25, p=0,64) para o desfecho prevenção/redução da violência. Conclusão: esta revisão não obteve alta evidência na prevenção ou redução da violência no trabalho. O número reduzido de ensaios aleatorizados, a falta de estudos com baixo risco de viés e a alta consistência podem ter sido fatores dificultadores para recomendar intervenções efetivas.

Abstract Objective: to assess the effectiveness of the interventions targeted at preventing and reducing the workplace violence suffered by health and support professionals. Method: a systematic review with meta-analysis conducted in eight databases and in the gray literature. Risk of bias was assessed by means of the Cochrane tools and certainty of the evidence, through Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. The analysis was performed in a descriptive manner and through the meta-analysis, including a heterogeneity assessment. Results: a total of 11 randomized and quasi-randomized studies were eligible, of which six (54.5%) implemented individual skills, four used a multiple approach (36.4%) and one (9.1%) resorted to governmental actions. Four studies (36.4%) exerted a positive and significant effect on reducing violence. Risk of bias was classified as high or uncertain. The meta-analysis was performed with two studies that tested individual skill (intervention group) versus individual skill (comparator group), although there was no scientific evidence (95% CI: -0.41 - 0.25, p=0.64) for the violence prevention/reduction outcome. Conclusion: this review did not obtain a high level of evidence in the prevention or reduction of workplace violence. The reduced number of randomized trials, the lack of studies with low risk of bias and the high consistency may have been factors that hindered recommending effective interventions.

Abstract Objective To verify the association between workplace violence and quality of professional life in nurses from Basic Health Units. Methods This is a descriptive, cross-sectional and analytical study developed with 101 primary care nurses, whose data were collected using an instrument of sociodemographic, occupational and lifestyle characteristics, the Survey Questionnaire Workplace Violence in the Health Sector and the Professional Quality of Life Scale, to assess workplace violence and the quality of professional life, respectively. Data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially, using Wald's chi-square test, considering p<0.05 as statistical significance. Results The prevalence of types of violence was 65.3% for verbal, 29.7% moral harassment, 17.8% physical, 1% sexual harassment and 1% racial discrimination. Low compassion satisfaction occurred with 54.5% of respondents, high burnout with 58.4% and high post-traumatic stress, 57.4%. Compassion satisfaction was associated with bullying at work (p=0.047), encouragement to report violence (p=0.040) and having consequences for offenders (p=0.018). There was no association between the types of violence and burnout. Posttraumatic stress was associated with physical workplace violence (p=0.047) and with the existence of procedures to report violence (p=0.018). Conclusion There was an association of workplace violence with the quality of professional life. It is necessary to create institutional measures to promote the quality of professional life, prevent workplace violence and standard procedures to guide professionals in the face of violent acts.
