High Rate of Stress among Doctors As the HIN1 swine flu virus spreads rapidly through the Northern Hemisphere, doctors and other health care professionals face a heavier - than - usual workload. Even without a flu pandemic, studies show, up to 60 percent of physicians in the United States suffer to some degree from" burnout" - physical and emotional exhaustion: The stress on doctors can cause medical mistakes even errors that could cost people their lives, so the universities that train America’ s doctors are looking for ways to prevent burnout. At a hospital in Tennessee, Dr. William May tries to diagnose his patients as quickly as he can. "We don’ t like to have to add that extra space. We’ re just busy. Very, very busy, "he says. Even without a pandemic to add to the workload, doctors are busier than ever In Rochester, New York, primary -care physician Michael Schneider has seen the stress from his work increase steadily over the past 30 years. " It’ s something lost when we have phones ringing, consultants calling, and computer screens flashing. "he says. Another study looks at how to help physicians cope with stress. Dr. Michael Krasner, leader of the study, saw a definite change in the doctors after a year of relaxation training. His theory is that physicians who have better communication skills, and who know how to relax when they can, can avoid symptoms of emotional exhaustion, such as a lack of a sense of accomplishment or difficulty empathizing with patients. Dr Schneider says the course helped him. "We are so removed from some of the skills we had all learned - or believed we had learned in medical school - about communication, that having an intensive course that really re-teaches and reinforces the skills that we had perhaps lost, is very valuable, "he says.
