Abstract

Background: We assess whether the amount of experienced burnout and its relation to suicidal ideation differs between medical professionals and non-medical professionals.

Methods: In December 2023, we performed searches in EBSCO, PubMed, Google Scholar, and ProQuest. We used a random effects samples-size weighted approach for our meta-analysis of 92 sources.

Results: Our meta-regressions did not identify a statistically significant difference between medical professionals and non-medical professionals in their mean levels of the burnout dimensions (all p > .05). Our meta-regressions did not identify a significant difference in the relation of burnout and suicidal ideation between medical professionals and non-medical professionals (β = -0.06, S.E. = .05, 95%C.I. [-0.15, .03], p = .21, k = 53, n = 68,454), and similar results were found for all burnout dimensions (all p > .05).

Discussion: Our results suggest that burnout is no more important for medical professionals than non-medical professionals.

医学专业人员职业倦怠与自杀意念的元分析：对职业脆弱性的洞察。

背景：我们评估医疗专业人员和非医疗专业人员经历过的倦怠程度及其与自杀意念的关系是否存在差异。方法：我们于2023年12月在EBSCO、PubMed、谷歌Scholar和ProQuest中进行了检索。我们使用随机效应样本大小加权方法对92个来源进行meta分析。结果：我们的meta回归没有发现医疗专业人员和非医疗专业人员在职业倦怠维度的平均水平上有统计学上的显著差异（均p < 0.05）。我们的meta回归并未发现医务人员和非医务人员在职业倦怠和自杀意念的关系上存在显著差异（β = -0.06， S.E. = 0.05, 95% ci）。[-0.15, .03], p = .21, k = 53, n = 68,454)，所有倦怠维度的结果都相似（p均为0.05）。讨论：我们的研究结果表明，职业倦怠对医疗专业人员来说并不比非医疗专业人员更重要。
