Abstract

Abstract

Objective To investigate the relationship between sleeping status and burnout among health emergency staff. Methods A multi-center convenience sampling method was employed, and a total of 1 012 health emergency staff were recruited from Longhua District of Shenzhen City, Qingdao City, and Dingzhou City. A questionnaire survey, which included the Maslach burnout inventory-general survey (MBI-GS), was conducted to assess the participants′ sleeping and burnout status. Logistic regression model and sub-group analysis were utilized to explore the relationship between sleeping status and burnout after adjusting for confounding variables. Results Among the participants, 57.02% experienced sleep deprivation, defined as having less than 6 hours of sleep per night, 90.42% participants were classified as burnout, with 19.17% being highly burnout. The study found a positive relationship between both sleep deprivation (OR=2.28, 95% CI: 1.61-3.25, P < 0.001) and shortened sleeping time during COVID-19 (OR=3.89, 95% CI: 2.20-6.89, P < 0.001) and burnout. Sleep deprivation was found to be positively associated with exhaustion, cynicism, and professional efficacy, while shortened sleeping time was only related to exhaustion. Moreover, the relationship between sleep deprivation and burnout was found to be amplified in specific subgroups, including individuals aged 40 or younger (OR=3.10, 95% CI: 1.96-4.91, P=0.038), not married (OR=5.96, 95% CI: 2.58-13.78, P=0.010), those without children (OR=4.33, 95% CI: 2.06-9.10, P=0.049), and those with a monthly income of ≤5 000 yuan (OR=2.88, 95% CI: 1.90-4.37, P=0.027). Conclusions This study highlights the importance of ensuring sufficient sleeping time for health emergency staff, in order to alleviate burnout and enhance their ability to cope with health emergencies.
