There are no dedicated studies specifically assessing burnout in neurology residency program directors (PDs). A study of residency and fellowship directors across specialties found neurology residency PDs had the highest work-related Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) score, which may reflect high-level burnout in neurology in general. Indeed, the American Academy of Neurology Burnout Task Force reported burnout in 60% of neurologists. The aims of this study are to determine the level of burnout in adult and pediatric neurology residency PDs, and to determine whether perception of value is related to burnout.
Higinbotham et al. (Sun,) studied this question.
