1/ Several provocative papers were published on #burnout last week in @JAMA_current. I have some thoughts on both the papers and the field. I hope these might stimulate further informed discussion. I will take part in that to the extent time permits, but I do have a day job. 😀
2/ First up, the systematic review by @LisaRotenstein @srijan_sen_lab @DouglasMataMD and others. Hearty congratulations for such a visible publication based on an immense amount of work! #burnout @JAMA_current jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
3/ Key findings include: “marked variation in burnout definitions, assessment methods, and study quality” which “preclude definitive conclusions about the prevalence of burnout”.

I have tweeted persistently for 24 hours regarding physician wellness & the concept of “resilience“ because I can no longer passively accept responsibility in any form for systemic healthcare inadequacies. Docs, keep advocating. Fix the system, fix doctors. @CMA_Docs @CMPAmembers

Moral injury “You have seen things that go so against what you believe in that it breaks your mind and your spirit”

Frontline soldiers , frontline physicians

Talking about it is all we can do ! It’s time to accept an uncomfortable reality

Physicians

Are

Vulnerable

Physician disenfranchisement, over regulation and domination began years ago. All we can do is shout into the wind

I'm re-reading articles about #burnout before finishing up this section of my #DevRel book and stumbled on this oldie-but-goodie from @aprilwensel:

"What burns people out is not doing hard work, but rather feeling like their work doesn’t matter."

medium.com/compassionate-…
Don't get me wrong... as long as I know my work still matters, I'm ok with doing the basic, repetitive work that I'm overqualified for but that needs to happen to keep the team going. It's a part of every job, right?
The difference is when I'm told that my time is best spent doing that drudge work rather than doing the work that I love & care deeply about. The message that sends me is that the work that I care about the most is essentially worthless & is doing nothing to further the company.

Charts:

What are the primary revenue sources of a hospital? Wouldn’t more wRVU demand from the same doctor (in a “physician service cost deflationary environment) increase providers’ #burnout rate and/or decrease the quality of patient care?

This is my commentary on #twitter #movements. Before I go I want to preface this with a statement: I love humans. We're amazing creative & powerful beings. I'm fascinated by human behaviour and the hidden motivations underlying our basic need to belong. 1/
I've observed some movements taking off on Twitter. Some for #MedEd, raising awareness, knowledge sharing, inspiration and sharing failings, wounds & triumphs. Generally they support creative expression in 280 characters. Awesome! 2/
As these movements gain momentum, more people want to join in b/c #belonging. I'm seeing a disturbing trend of sharing experiences of patients/clients to promote how deep & human they are. Some are purely intended, some not. 3/

allez, c’est parti pour la suite du #Zuckhearing devant le congrès. pour le style, on verse toujours dans la fanfic live report différé, en français.
nouveau thread pour l’occasion, histoire que vous n’ayez pas 400 tweets à dérouler. (je pense notamment à ceux qui ont des apps de merde android.) vous pouvez retrouver la première partie de l’histoire, devant le sénat, ici :
j’ai 4.1k mots et 24.5k signes à publier : comptez donc une grosse centaine de tweets (ça paraît beaucoup, mais en vrai c’est un peu moins que ce que poste @Pipomantis en une journée ー je dis pas ça à l’arrache je l’avais mesuré avec l’api twitter back in 2013.)

Over the past 2 days, hundreds of doctors have shared heartbreaking accounts of how #gunviolence is a #publichealth issue. These are the stories of #docs4gunsense ... May their words make a difference.

The result of a bullet ricocheting inside the skull and destroying the brain on CT scan. The worst trauma I have seen. GUNS ARE A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE – Gen Geller MD, NY #docs4gunsense @drgenngeller
The damage a bullet does to a 1 year old brain as it ricochets back and for. The guilt the family feels. The sadness we all feel.
