abstract = {Research findings concerning burnout prevalence rate among nurses from the medical area
are contradictory. The aim of this study was to analyse associated factors, to determine nurse burnout
levels and to meta-analyse the prevalence rate of each burnout dimension. A systematic review, with
meta-analysis, was conducted in February 2018, consulting the next scientific databases: PubMed,
CUIDEN, CINAHL, Scopus, LILACS, PsycINFO and ProQuest Health & Medical Complete. In total,
38 articles were extracted, using a double-blinded procedure. The studies were classified by the level
of evidence and degrees of recommendation. The 63.15% (n = 24) of the studies used the MBI. High
emotional exhaustion was found in the 31% of the nurses, 24% of high depersonalisation and low
personal accomplishment was found in the 38%. Factors related to burnout included professional
experience, psychological factors and marital status. High emotional exhaustion prevalence rates,
high depersonalisation and inadequate personal accomplishment are present among medical area
nurses. The risk profile could be a single nurse, with multiple employments, who suffers work
overload and with relatively little experience in this field. The problem addressed in this study
influence the quality of care provided, on patients’ well-being and on the occupational health
of nurses.},
