Efectividad de la Técnica Mindfulness en el abordaje del Síndrome del Burnout en el personal de la salud: Sistematización de experiencias prácticas

Abstract

Abstract: During the practical experience carried out in the clinical setting, a high prevalence of burnout syndrome was identified, characterized by dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and low personal fulfillment. This was the reason for conducting a systematic review to determine the effectiveness of the mindfulness technique in addressing burnout in the selected population. Ten recent studies were analyzed, in which mindfulness was applied as the main technique for addressing burnout in the selected population, showing a reduction in the prevalence of the syndrome, reducing emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and increasing personal fulfillment. Subsequently, a simulated clinical case of a resident physician with a diagnosis of Adjustment Disorder with anxiety and comorbidity with burnout was developed, applying an eight-week intervention plan based on mindfulness combined with cognitive-behavioral techniques. The findings obtained in the systematic review allowed structuring the treatment, obtaining favorable clinical results. This work integrates scientific theory, professional practice and scientific evidence, promoting a clinical, rigorous and well-founded approach for future interventions in mental health.
