Mini-Z Burnout Scale Scores
Burnout was reported in 76 (21.8%) of participants. A greater
distribution of resident physicians were experiencing burnout compared
to attending physicians (49 [29.7%] vs. 27 [14.7%]; p=0.001).
A significantly greater proportion of female physicians also reported
burnout compared to male physicians (40 [29.2%] vs. 36
[17.0%]; p=0.010) (Table 2A ). The median (interquartile
range, IQR) scores on the Mini-Z burnout measurement for all
participants was 2.0 (2.0-2.0). As with the results grouped by the
cutoff point, analysis of the median scores found residents to have a
significantly increased score for burnout compared to attendings (2.0
[2.0-3.0] vs. 2.0 [2.0-2.0]; p<0.0005), and females to
have a significantly increased scores for burnout compared to males (2.0
[2.0-3.0] vs. 2.0 [2.0-2.0]; p=0.004) (Table 3A ).
Multivariable logistic regression analysis, which controlled for
confounders, also showed that attendings were less likely to have
positive screening for burnout compared to residents (OR 0.28, CI
[0.11-0.68]; p=0.005). Additionally, compared to male physicians,
females physicians were more likely have a positive screening for
burnout (OR 1.93, CI [1.12.-3.32]; p=0.018) (Table 4 ).
