ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study investigated the impact of surgical modalities on surgeon wellbeing with a focus on burnout, job satisfaction, and interventions used to address neuromusculoskeletal disorders (NMSDs).METHODS:
An electronic survey was sent to surgeons across an academic integrated multihospital system. The survey consisted of 47 questions investigating different aspects of surgeons' wellbeing.RESULTS:
Out of 245 thoracic and abdominopelvic surgeons, 79 surgeons (32.2 â%) responded, and 65 surgeons (82 â%) were able to be categorized as having a dominant surgical modality. Compared to robotic surgeons, laparoscopic (p â= â0.042) and open (p â= â0.012) surgeons reported more frequent feelings of burnout. The number of surgeons who used any treatment/intervention to minimize the operative discomfort/pain was lower for robotic surgeons than the other three modalities (all p â< â0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
NMSDs affect different aspects of surgeons' lives and occupations. Robotic surgery was associated with decreased feelings of burnout than the other modalities.Palavras-chave
