Abstract in brief
- The study found that a significant number of American surgeons (about 89 out of 7905) reported making a major medical error in the last three months, and most attributed these errors to personal rather than systemic issues.
- There is a strong link between burnout, depression, and the likelihood of reporting medical errors, with higher levels of burnout—particularly emotional exhaustion and depersonalization—leading to increased chances of errors.
- Factors like work hours, overnight call, and compensation did not significantly impact the probability of errors, suggesting that surgeon mental health and burnout are critical areas to address to improve patient safety.
