It is associated with reduced quality of care, as well as the occurrence of medical errors and mental illness. Although burnout has been extensively studied in populations of physicians and nurses, there is limited research assessing burnout in pharmacists and their exposure to burnout-related education.\nObjectives: To determine the prevalence of burnout and its associated risk factors among hospital pharmacists and to explore the status of preventive programs in pharmacy school curricula.\nMethods: A cross-sectional online survey was conducted with hospital pharmacists working in the province of Ontario, Canada. Respondents completed the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and responded to questions about career characteristics and professional satisfaction. A multivariable regression analysis was used to determine factors independently associated with burnout. In addition, all pharmacy schools in Canada were surveyed electronically about their burnout-prevention curricula.\nResults: Of 2465 hospital pharmacists in Ontario, 270 responded (11% response rate). Most respondents were women (77% [195\/252]) and were working full-time (90% [227\/252]), with a substantial proportion working in the acute care setting (39% [96\/246]). The burnout rate was 61.1% (165\/270; 95% confidence interval 55.5%\u201366.8%). Factors independently associated with burnout were dissatisfaction with work\u2013life balance (odds ratio [OR] 2.62, p = 0.005) and feeling that contributions were unappreciated (OR 2.60, p = 0.019). Of those whose MBI score indicated burnout, 23% (36\/158) were not aware of experiencing burnout. All 10 Canadian pharmacy schools responded to the survey, with 9 (90%) reporting that they did not have burnout-prevention curricula; however, 8 (80%) reported interest in incorporating such material.\nConclusions: The rate of burnout among hospital pharmacists in Ontario was high, and preventive action is needed. Opportunities exist to both improve pharmacists\u2019 resilience at the undergraduate level and reduce institutional stressors in the workplace.\nR\u00c9SUM\u00c9\nContexte : L\u2019\u00e9puisement professionnel du clinicien est un syndrome li\u00e9 au travail qui se caract\u00e9rise par une fatigue \u00e9motionnelle, une d\u00e9personnalisation et l\u2019amoindrissement des r\u00e9alisations personnelles. Il est associ\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9duction de la qualit\u00e9 des soins, \u00e0 la survenance d\u2019erreurs m\u00e9dicales et \u00e0 la maladie mentale. Bien que ce sujet ait fait l\u2019objet d\u2019\u00e9tudes approfondies dans les populations de m\u00e9decins et d\u2019infirmiers, les recherches qui se penchent sur l\u2019\u00e9puisement des pharmaciens et la possibilit\u00e9 qui leur est offerte de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier de formations relatives \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9puisement sont limit\u00e9es.\nObjectifs : D\u00e9terminer la pr\u00e9valence du surmenage professionnel et des facteurs de risque qui lui sont associ\u00e9s parmi les pharmaciens d\u2019h\u00f4pitaux et examiner les programmes de pr\u00e9vention dans les formations en \u00e9cole de pharmacie.\nM\u00e9thode : Une enqu\u00eate transversale en ligne a \u00e9t\u00e9 men\u00e9e aupr\u00e8s des pharmaciens hospitaliers travaillant en Ontario, au Canada. Les r\u00e9pondants ont rempli le Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) [Evaluation du syndrome de l\u2019\u00e9puisement professionnel de Maslach] et r\u00e9pondu \u00e0 des questions portant sur les caract\u00e9ristiques d\u2019emploi et la satisfaction professionnelle. Une analyse de r\u00e9gression multivariable a permis de d\u00e9terminer les facteurs ind\u00e9pendamment associ\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9puisement. De plus, une enqu\u00eate \u00e9lectronique portant sur le programme de pr\u00e9vention de l\u2019\u00e9puisement a \u00e9t\u00e9 men\u00e9e dans toutes les \u00e9coles de pharmacie au Canada.\nR\u00e9sultats : Sur les 2465 pharmaciens d\u2019h\u00f4pitaux en Ontario, 270 ont r\u00e9pondu (taux de r\u00e9ponse de 11 %). La plupart des r\u00e9pondants \u00e9taient des femmes (77 % [195\/252]) travaillant \u00e0 temps plein (90 % [227\/252]); une part importante travaillait dans un environnement de soins aigus (39 % [96\/246]). Le taux d\u2019\u00e9puisement \u00e9tait de 61,1 % (165\/270, intervalle de confiance 95 % 55,5 %-66,8 %). Les facteurs ind\u00e9pendamment associ\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9puisement \u00e9taient l\u2019insatisfaction li\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9quilibre entre sa vie professionnelle et sa vie personnelle (rapport de cotes [RC] 2,62, p = 0,005) et l\u2019impression d\u2019un manque d\u2019appr\u00e9ciation de sa contribution (RC 2,60, p = 0,019). Parmi les personnes dont le score MBI indiquait un \u00e9puisement professionnel, 23 % (36\/158) ne savaient pas qu\u2019elles en \u00e9taient victimes. Les dix \u00e9coles de pharmacie canadiennes ont r\u00e9pondu \u00e0 l\u2019enqu\u00eate et neuf (90 %) ont rapport\u00e9 ne pas avoir de programme ax\u00e9 sur la pr\u00e9vention de l\u2019\u00e9puisement professionnel, cependant, huit (80 %) ont montr\u00e9 leur int\u00e9r\u00eat pour un tel programme.\nConclusions : Le taux d\u2019\u00e9puisement professionnel parmi les pharmaciens d\u2019h\u00f4pitaux en Ontario \u00e9tait \u00e9lev\u00e9 et des actions pr\u00e9ventives sont n\u00e9cessaires. Les possibilit\u00e9s existent pour am\u00e9liorer la r\u00e9silience des pharmaciens au niveau du premier cycle universitaire et r\u00e9duire les facteurs de stress institutionnels sur le lieu de travail.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4212\/cjhp.v74i4.3192","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,10]],"date-time":"2021-10-10T04:42:30Z","timestamp":1633840950000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Burnout among Hospital Pharmacists: Prevalence, Self-Awareness, and Preventive Programs in Pharmacy School Curricula"],"prefix":"10.4212","volume":"74","author":[{"given":"Colby","family":"Weichel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joan S","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Justin Y","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2732","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]]},"container-title":["Canadian Journal of Hospital Pharmacy"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cjhp-online.ca\/index.php\/cjhp\/article\/download\/3192\/4524","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cjhp-online.ca\/index.php\/cjhp\/article\/download\/3192\/4542","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cjhp-online.ca\/index.php\/cjhp\/article\/download\/3192\/4524","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,10]],"date-time":"2021-10-10T04:42:30Z","timestamp":1633840950000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cjhp-online.ca\/index.php\/cjhp\/article\/view\/3192"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4212\/cjhp.v74i4.3192","relation":{},"ISSN":["1920-2903","0008-4123"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1920-2903","type":"electronic"},{"value":"0008-4123","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]]}}}
