Pessoal de Saúde/psicologia, Esgotamento Psicológico, Fadiga de CompaixãoResumo
Introdução: Trabalhadores da área da saúde podem estar sujeitos a estresses físicos ou emocionais relacionados ao trabalho por: fatores organizacionais, falta de habilidades ou competências e baixo suporte social, além de questões internas, como exposição frequente no cuidado de pessoas com sofrimentos intensos. Objetivo: Avaliar fatores relacionados à síndrome de burnout (SB) e à fadiga por compaixão (FC) entre equipes do itinerário terapêutico de pacientes oncológicos. Método: Estudo transversal com equipes médicas e de enfermagem de cuidados paliativos, emergência, oncologia clínica e terapia intensiva de um centro de referência em Recife, Pernambuco. Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos, e utilizadas as escalas Oldenburg Burnout Inventory e Professional Quality of Life Scale para avaliar SB e FC, respectivamente. Resultados: Os médicos exibiram características mais propensas ao sofrimento, com menor satisfação por compaixão (SC) (45,67 ± 10,55) e maior desligamento do trabalho (2,28 ± 0,66). Profissionais dos cuidados paliativos demonstraram caracteres mais positivos em comparação aos demais, com menor desligamento do trabalho (1,86 ± 0,38; p = 0,04) e maior SC (53,63 ± 10,33). Os setores de terapia intensiva e emergência apresentaram perfil de risco de adoecimento maior, com reduzida SC e elevado desligamento do trabalho. Conclusão: Médicos e equipes de emergência e de terapia intensiva estiveram mais propensos ao sofrimento pelas SB e FC, enquanto técnicos e equipe de cuidados paliativos apresentaram indicadores mais salutares. Esses dados podem subsidiar abordagens institucionais para identificar fatores de risco para SB e FC entre trabalhadores e desenvolver soluções efetivas direcionadas.
