Depression and Burnout in Hospital Health Care Professionals

TLDR
Multivariate analysis and logistic regression models showed that many demographic and subjective variables influenced depression and burnout in different ways.
Abstract
A cross-sectional study was conducted on a random sample of 1,200 health care professionals in Marseille, France, in order to assess the prevalences of depression and burnout, and to compare these two entities. Depression was assessed by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression scale (CES-D), and burnout by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Burnout is a syndrome of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization towards patients, and reduced sense of personal accomplishment. Some psychiatrists consider burnout to be a clinical form of depression. The prevalences of depression and burnout were very close: 17.1% and 15.7% among the women, 19.4% and 22% among the men, but 6.5% of the women and 9.4% of the men were both depressive and burned-out. A correlation was found between the CES-D and the subscales Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization of the MBI. Multivariate analysis and logistic regression models showed that many demographic and subjective variables influenced depression and burnout in different ways.

Depression, burnout, and perceptions of control in hospital nurses

TL;DR: Despite evidence for a "depressive realism effect," greater perceptual accuracy was not attributable to depression among the more burned-out nurses, and structural equations modeling suggested that perceived uncontrollability is associated with burnout, which, in turn, is related to depressive affect.

Work stress, hardiness, and burnout among hospital staff nurses.

TL;DR: Hierarchical multiple regression analyses indicated that work stressors and hardiness were significant additive rather than interactive predictors of burnout and that hardiness had beneficial main effects in reducing burnout, but did not appear to prevent high levels of job stress from leading to high levels.

Stress in ICU and non-ICU nurses.
