ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on understanding burnout among internal medicine doctors, which is when they feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or emotionally drained from their work. The study will involve a questionnaire that asks doctors about their feelings, sleep habits, and overall emotional health. The goal is to gather important information that can help improve the well-being of medical staff and the quality of care they provide to patients.

To participate in this study, doctors must currently work in internal medicine or related specialties, like cardiology or neurology, and should be able to fill out the questionnaire without any issues. Importantly, they should not have a history of mental health problems. By joining this study, participants will help identify ways to support their colleagues and create a healthier work environment for everyone in the medical field.
