n about the presence of burnout syndrome can`t be obtained by observing presence of professional stress in teaching staff at the medical faculty in foca 229
the PA subscale like isolated case. The subscale PA is relevant only if it is con-
firmed with an EE or DP scale. The total score is possible in the range 0 -132.
MBI has three structural units and measures the following dimensions: a feel-
ing of emotional exhaustion and pretensioning job, depersonalization or dis-
comfort caused by exertion and a sense of competition and job satisfaction.
Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 24.0 statistical software
package. Of the non-parametric statistical tests we used χ2- square test. The
correlation is performed using the Pearson correlation coefficient. As the lev-
el of statistical significance of differences, its been used a common value of
p <0.05. For displaying the average values we used the arithmetic mean and
standard-deviation. The data are presented in tables and charts.
Results
In shifts works 46.8% of respondents and majority (83%) is exposed to stress at
work. Professional burnout syndrome was observed in 42.6% of workers, mid-
dle and high level of emotional exhaustion was observed in 57.5%, deperson-
alization was observed in 44.7%, while the low and middle level of personal
achievements are observed in 61.7% of the respondents. Using the SF-36 ques-
tionnaire that evaluates a common component of physical health, it has been
observed that the high level of the Physical Component Summary (PCS)is pres-
ent in 74.5 %, of respondents middle level in 23.5%, whereas the low level is ob-
served in only 2.1% Between groups of respondents with different level of PCS
highly statistically significant difference was observed (χ2 = 20,228; p = 0.001)
comparing to level of emotional exhaustion. Statistically significant number
of respondents with high level of PCS (36.2%) was observed comparing to re-
spondents with low level of PCS (0%) (table 1).
In 74.4% of respondents registered a high level of common mental health
components, 23.4% showed a medium level, while only one respondent showed
low levels of MCS. Between groups of subjects with different levels of MCS
there was a high significant difference compared to the level of emotional ex-
haustion (χ2 = 15.276; p = 0.004) and a statistically significant difference com-
pared to the level of depersonalization (χ2 = 11,358; p = 0.023), wherein 40.4%
of subjects who have a high level of MCS and shows no signs of emotional ex-
haustion, while 55.3% of patients with a high level of MCS and shows no signs
of depersonalization. Table 2 shows the differences in the average values of the
domains of the SF-36 questionnaire for the presence of a professional burnout
syndrome. A statistically highly significant difference was observed with re-
spect to domain limitations due to emotional problems (t = -3.563, p = 0.002),
where the average value of this domain in respondents with present burnout
syndromes is significantly lower (66,60 ± 41,92), compared to the scoring state
levels of patients where it is not detected burning syndrome (100.00 ± 0.001).
Social functioning is at statistically significantly higher level (t = -2.019, p =
0.050) in the patients without the present syndrome (87.03 ± 13.19) compared
the PA subscale like isolated case. The subscale PA is relevant only if it is con-
firmed with an EE or DP scale. The total score is possible in the range 0 -132.
