However, a growing concern for the decline of professionalism and altruism in medicine resulted in increased publications on the matter, citing various potential sources for the issue.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>All residents and fellows (Focus Group 1) of the Anesthesiology Department of Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, NY were invited to participate in a semi-structured interview via Zoom, held on two separate dates. A separate invitation was sent to the faculty of the department (Focus Group 2), held on one date. During the interview, guiding questions were provided by the 4 interviews to facilitate discussion. The interviewers, all members of the anesthesia faculty, took notes as the interviews progressed. The notes were reviewed for common themes as well as supporting and contradicting quotations.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A total of 23 residents and fellows and a total of 25 faculty members within the Anesthesiology department at Montefiore Medical Center were interviewed. Amongst the findings, common discussions concerned motivating and demotivating factors contributing to the professionalism and altruism exhibited by the residents and fellows when caring for critical COVID-19 patients during the height of the pandemic. It was widely regarded that patient improvement, community and team support, as well as intrinsic desire to help greatly motivated the team while continuous patient deterioration, uncertainty in staffing and treatment, and concerns for personal and family safety were sources of discouragement. Overall, faculty perceived an increased demonstration of altruism amongst residents and fellows. The statements made by the residents and fellows during their interviews supported this observation.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The actions of the Montefiore Anesthesiology residents and fellows demonstrated that altruism and professionalism were readily available amongst physicians. Increased levels of empathy and responsibility contributed to a demonstration of professionalism that challenges previous views of a perceived decline of these attributes in the medical field. The findings of this study stress the importance of creating a curriculum and exercise that stress empathy-based care and altruism in order to improve resident satisfaction and decrease feelings of burnout. Additionally, curriculum additions to facilitate professionalism are proposed.</p>","PeriodicalId":51865,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Research","volume":"11 ","pages":"74137"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10184882/pdf/healthpsychologyresearch_2023_11_74137.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41166338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
