Assessing burnout and quality of life among residents and fellows in a high-stress environment: a cross-sectional study
Burnout levels among PGMT are more favorable than expected but EX and low PE levels remain concerns. QoL perceptions across various domains were moderately satisfactory, yet issues such as social isolation, mental health problems, and financial difficulties negatively impacted trainees' well-being. Targeted interventions to manage burnout and enhance QoL remain essential for trainees' well-being and the effective functioning of medical institutions.
