Objective This study aims to investigate the current status of burnout among anesthesi-ology residents,and to explore its influencing factors and potential interventions.Methods A total of 2 651 practicing anesthesiology residents from 218 hospitals nationwide were included in this study.Demographic characteristics,occupational features,and psychological resilience scores(Connor-Davidson resilience scale)were collected using a questionnaire distributed electronically.The Maslach burnout inventory-human service survey(MBI-HSS)was used to assess burnout.A comparison between groups with and without occu-pational burnout was conducted.Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for burnout among anesthesiology residents.Results Out of the expected 2 651 questionnaires,1 990 valid responses were received(response rate 77.7%).The prevalence of burnout among the residents was 53.4%(1 063/1 990).Compared with residents without occupational burnout,those with burnout had a signifi-cantly higher proportion of females,working in tertiary hospitals,unmarried individuals,frequency of en-countering challenging patients,participating in on-call duty,and research tasks,and had a significantly lon-ger weekly working hours(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that female(OR = 1.58,95%CI 1.28-1.97,P＜0.01),longer working hours(OR = 1.62,95%CI 1.45-1.81,P＜0.01),and higher frequency of encountering challenging patients(OR = 1.11,95%CI 1.11-1.40,P＜0.01)were risk factors for occupational burnout.High levels of psychological resilience was protective factor against burnout(OR = 0.86,95%CI 0.84-0.88,P＜0.01).Conclusion The occurrence of burnout among anesthesiology residents is high.It is crucial to focus on and design practical preventive measures to en-hance psychological resilience,ensuring healthy physical and mental development of the resident community.

Objective Burnout is a triad of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment resulting from job stress. Although with distinct regional and cultural characteristics, burnout among anesthesiologists in the Tibet has not been described. This study aimed to explore the prevalence of burnout among anesthesiologists in Tibet and its associated factors. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Tibet, China, with an anonymous questionnaire. Social-demographic characteristics, work status, three dimensions of burnout assessed by the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 133 individuals from 17 hospitals completed the survey from March to June 2018. The prevalence of moderate- to high-level of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and burnout in personal accomplishment was 65.4% (95%

Objective To understand the incidence and risk factors of warfarin related hemorrhagic events during anticoagulation therapy with warfarin in patients with cirrhosis and portal vein thrombosis (PVT)after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). Methods The patients with liver cirrhosis who were treated with warfarin after TIPS due to portal hypertension were followed up from January 2012 in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases,Air Force Military Medical University. The data of medical records and follow-up records up to the end of December 2015 in patients undergoing TIPS were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Cumulative incidence of hemorrhagic events related to warfarin treatment was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. The patients were divided into warfarin-related bleeding group (bleeding group ) and non warfarin-related bleeding group (non-bleeding group ). The risk factors of hemorrhagic events related to warfarin treatment were analyzed using Cox regression model and the hazard ratio (HR)and the 95% confidence interval (CI)were calculated. Results A total of 179 patients were enrolled,including 117 males and 62 females with ages of 25-79 years and average age of (52 ± 12)years;the bleeding group comprised 47 patients (26.3%)and the non-bleeding group comprised 132 patients (73.7%). The follow-up time after discharge ranged 1-74 months and the average time was (28 ± 21) months. The average portal pressure gradient dropped from (25.4 ± 5.2)to (8.7 ± 3.7)mmHg before and after TIPS (P＜0.001). The median dose of oral warfarin in patients in the bleeding group was 2.5 (ranged from 2.5 to 3.75)mg and the median INR was 3.12 (ranged from 2.04 to 9.41);the median dose of oral warfarin in patients in the non-bleeding group was 1.8 (ranged from 0.63 to 2.5)mg and the median INR was 1.85 (ranged from 1.5 to 3.38). Fifty eight cases of hemorrhagic events occurred in 47 patients in the bleeding group,including 24 cases of gingival bleeding,16 cases of epistaxis,8 cases of cutaneous purpura, 4 cases of conjunctival hemorrhage,2 cases of hemorrhage of digestive tract,2 cases of intracranial hemorrhage,1 cases of hematuria,and 1 cases of menorrhagia. Nine of the 47 patients in the bleeding group had bleeding from multiple sites. The results of Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the 1-,2-,3-,4-,5-and 6-year cumulative incidences of hemorrhagic events related to warfarin treatment after operation were 19%,23%,24%,30%,41%,and 45%,respectively. Warfarin was stopped in 11 patients and given at reduced doses in 36 patients among the 47 patients in the bleeding group. After that,43 patients'hemorrhagic symptoms disappeared and 3 patients' symptoms relieved,and then warfarin treatments were continued,except that 1 patient with a long history of hypertension died of intracranial hemorrhage. Multiple Cox regression analysis showed that the baseline serum creatinine level ＞115 μmol/L was an independent risk factor for hemorrhagic events related to warfarin treatment (HR＝1.82,95%CI:1.01-3.28,P＝0.045). Conclusions It is relatively safe for patients with liver cirrhosis and PVT receiving warfarin anticoagulation therapy after TIPS. Elevated serum creatinine is an independent risk factor for hemorrhagic events related to warfarin treatment.
