Physician Wellness in Orthopedic Surgery: Challenges and Solutions

Jeffrey M Smith et al. Orthop Clin North Am. 2021 Jan.

Abstract

The growing epidemic of physician burnout suggests that a change is needed. Physician wellness is an ever-growing consideration, especially in orthopedic surgery, where the challenges to wellness are significant. This review provides many common sense wellness principles and solutions in four main components of wellness (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual) interwoven with current research on the topic. Although directed to orthopedic surgeons, this guide can be applied to all physicians, because they are based on common human principles of wellness. Wellness is not created overnight, so wellness practices that increase the likelihood of experiencing wellness are encouraged.

Keywords: Burnout; Emotional exhaustion; Ergonomics; Moral injury; Orthopedic surgery; Well-being; Wellness.
