Introduction: Burnout is a condition due to chronic stress and overload at work. It affects professionals with high emotional involvement; care aid occupations come first. Objectives: Assess the degree of burnout and identify factors related to this syndrome among emergency department nurses. Methods: This is a descriptive and cross-sectional study, carried out using a self-quiz: the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). It was carried out in 2019 with the healthcare staff of four major hospitals in Tunis. Results: Sixty participants agreed to answer our questionnaire. Women accounted for 53% compared to 47% of men with an average age of 31.8 years. Fifty percent (50%) participants were under the age of 30. Eighty-eight percent of caregivers were burnout. Thirty-three percent (33%) had a severe burnout. Thirty-five percent (35%) had an average burnout. Twenty percent (20%) had a low burnout. Burnout was severe in 72% of participants, while 60% had a severe degree of depersonalization and 57% had a low degree of personal achievement. The analytical study showed that burnout affected women more than men. Married participants with children were more concerned with burnout. Excessive workload was the major factor in burnout for 46 caregivers. Conclusions: These alarming results should lead to practical both institutional and individual actions to improve the quality and working conditions of nurses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
