Twenty-four studies were deemed eligible for inclusion. A narrative synthesis was performed. The following influences on resilience in doctors were identified demographics, personality factors, organisational or environmental factors, social support, leisure activities, overcoming previous adversity and interventions to improve resilience.CONCLUSIONS:
Resilience is not limited to a doctor's own personal resource. Published studies also highlight the influence of other modifiable factors.Palavras-chave
