[The prevalence of emotional burning-out syndrome of medical workers in the Russian Federation: Systematic review and meta-analysis].

The burnout is a syndrome that occurs as a result of chronic stress at workplace that is extremely difficult to successfully manage. Many epidemiological studies concerning professional burnout of health care workers were already implemented in Russia. The purpose of the study was to assess overall burnout prevalence rate among health care workers practicing in Russia. We carried out systematic review of original publications in Russian and English though from eLibrary/ MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane and Google Scholar databases. Out of 408 results obtained during primary databases search, 61 publications were selected with range of burnout prevalence from 4.2 to 96.7%. Out of them 29 publications that applied the Maslach Burnout Inventory technique as burnout assessment tool to implement meta-analysis were selected. The meta-analysis included data of 5 497 participants. At that, total prevalence rate of burnout among health care workers made up to 61% [95% CI; 52-69%]. Thereby, burnout syndrome is to be considered as important problem of the national health system that requires standardized approach in assessing, diagnosing and monitoring.
