Background: Burnout is a psychological condition characterised by mental exhaustion with reduced sense of accomplishment. Health care workers are more vulnerable for burnout which not only might impair quality of their own life but also could compromise patients care. Covid19 pandemic posed additional threat which might worsen burnout. Aims and Objective: Few studies were available in the Indian context regarding the prevalence of burnout of medical professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence the study was conducted to assess the burnout in a Covid-19 designated hospital. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional, questionnaire based online survey using Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) was done. Responses were collected from 130 doctors who were working in a covid-19 dedicated medical college hospital through Google forms. The data was analysed for the 3 domains of burnout viz., personal, work and pandemic related. A cut-off score of 50 for each domain was kept for defining burnout. Results: The prevalence of burn out in each domain as follows - personal burn out 59.2% (n=77), work-related 47.7% (n=62) and pandemic related burnout 67.7% (88). The mean (±SD) scores of the personal, work-related, and pandemic-related burnout domains of the questionnaire were 54.50(±17.80), 48.85 (±17.98), and 54.82(±10.68) respectively. Conclusion: Significantly higher level of pandemic related burnout compared to work-related burnout indicate that Covid-19 specific factors like fear of getting and spreading infection might operate for higher burnout observed by us.
