description <p dir="ltr">In the late 1960s, the term burnout was first used in healthcare, which describes the psychological and emotional stress experienced by medical staff in free clinics. Since then, idiom burnout has been used to describe job-related stress in any health facility from hospitals to health centers. The Maslach Burnout Inventory, developed by Maslach and Jackson, was used to measure burnout and is an applied tool to diagnose burnout among physicians. It evaluates the presence of burnout using three subscales: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and sense of personal accomplishment. The objective of this brief review was to assess the prevalence, risk factors, and definitions of burnout among emergency physicians in the literature. The prevalence of burnout in medical literature ranges from 25% to 77.8%. Consequently, many causes can be determined to explain the differences in burnout prevalence, such as different countries, health systems, and populations. Several risk factors associated with the occurrence of burnout include work-related burnout, balancing work and private life, number of years in the job, anxiety, depression, sex, and lifestyle. The methods of dealing with burnout varied, such as talking with others, crying, making alternate plans, daydreaming, preparing for the worst, using food or coffee, and sleeping. Finally, the authors noticed a steady association between developing of burnout and the war environment, so, physicians who come from war countries suffer from burnout more than others, which returns to several reasons.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Quality in Health Care & Economics<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website:<a href="https://medwinpublishers.com/JQHE/volume.php?volumeId=527&issueId=1582" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://doi.org/10.23880/jqhe-16000332">https://doi.org/10.23880/jqhe-16000332</a></p>
