The association between burnout and medical professionalism in medical trainees: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Burnout can be defined as a serious work-related syndrome characterized by depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and reduced personal accomplishment, particularly among healthcare practitioners such as medical students. It can adversely affect academic performance and compromise vital professional values, including altruism, honesty, and empathy. While some studies have suggested that there is no connection between burnout and professional behavior, other studies have highlighted this relationship. This systematic review seeks to clarify the link between burnout and professionalism.

Methods

A comprehensive search was performed across PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase to identify studies examining the association between burnout and professionalism amon
