ABSTRACT

The present study evaluates the presence of burnout syndrome in a multidisciplinary team of 12 professionals dedicated to the study and comprehensive care of child abuse (CA). The medical and paramedical staff serving this population is constantly exposed to stimuli of traumatic and stressful nature that have been associated with the development of burnout syndrome.
Seisdedos Spanish version of Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) was used together with the inventory “My relationship with work.”
The results indicate that burnout levels were generally low; these were also analyzed for each of the dimensions described in the syndrome. The results also showed that the relationship of participants with their work was adequate.
Our data contrast with results from similar studies. Limitations and some observations for further studies are proposed.
