abstract = {The prevalence of burnout in midwives has been briefly studied. Given the negative
effects of burnout syndrome in the physical and mental health, and also related to the quality of
care provided, rates of absenteeism and sick leave; identifying related factors for the syndrome
are needed. The aim was to determine the prevalence, levels, and factors related to the burnout
syndrome, measured with the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory in midwives. A systematic review
and meta-analysis were selected from CINAHL, LILACS, ProQuest, PsycINFO, PubMed, SciELO,
and Scopus databases, with the search equation “burnout AND (midwife OR midwives OR nurses
midwives)”. Fourteen articles were found with a total of 8959 midwives. Most of the studies showed
moderate levels of personal burnout. The prevalence obtained was 50% (95% CI = 38–63) for personal
burnout; 40% (95% CI = 32–49) for work-related burnout; and 10% (95% CI = 7–13) for client-related
burnout. Midwives’ age, less experience, and living alone constitute the main related factors, as well
as, the scarcity of resources, work environment, and the care model used. Most midwives present
personal and work-related burnout, which indicates a high risk of developing burnout. Personal
factors and working conditions should be taken into account when assessing burnout risk profiles
of midwives.},
