In this study, the aim is to examine the changes in research on occupational burnout among healthcare workers and studies related to occupational burnout over the years. To achieve this, the existing literature is summarized to identify trends and gaps in the literature. In this context, studies conducted on occupational burnout among healthcare workers between 1998 and 2022 were included in the research using the "Web of Science" database. VOSviewer program was used to access bibliometric profiles and visual mapping findings of the included studies. The research illustrates the most productive authors, institutions, most cited authors, and collaborations among authors in the context of occupational burnout specifically among healthcare workers. Keyword analyses revealed that communication, behavior, palliative care, end-of-life care, Covid-19, and nursing practices were prominent concepts in relation to occupational burnout among healthcare workers. After 2018, telemedicine, quality improvement, digitalization, depression, evidence-based practices, and patient safety emerged as important concepts in publications. The obtained results are important for identifying the relevant topics in occupational burnout among healthcare workers and providing guidance for researchers working in this field.

Sağlık Çalışanlarında Mesleki Tükenme: Görsel Haritalama Tekniği ile Bibliyometrik Bir Analiz

Öz

Bu çalışmada sağlık çalışanlarında mesleki tükenme ile mesleki tükenme üzerine yapılan çalışmaların yıllar içinde gösterdiği değişimin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçla mevcut literatürün özetlenerek, literatürdeki eğilimlerin ve boşlukların ortaya konulması hedeflenmiştir. Bu bağlamda “Web of Science” veri tabanı kullanılarak 1998-2022 yılları arasında mesleki tükenme üzerine yapılan ve sağlık çalışanlarını konu alan çalışmalar araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. Araştırmaya dahil edilen çalışmaların bibliyometrik profilleri ve görsel haritalama bulgularına erişebilmek için VOSviewer programından yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma, sağlık çalışanları özelinde mesleki tükenmişlik kavramı üzerine en üretken yazarları, en çok yayın yapan kurumları, en çok atıf alan yazarları ve yazarlar arasındaki iş birliklerini göstermektedir. Anahtar sözcük analizleri ile sağlık çalışanlarında mesleki tükenme üzerinde iletişim, davranış, palyatif bakım, yaşam sonu bakım, Covid-19, hemşirelik uygulamaları kavramlarının ön plana çıktığı belirlenmiştir. 2018 ve sonrası yayınlarda teletıp, kalite iyileştirme, dijitalleşme, depresyon, kanıt temelli uygulamalar ve hasta güvenliği kavramlarının önem kazandığı görülmüştür. Ulaşılan sonuçlar, sağlık çalışanlarında mesleki tükenme üzerinde hangi konuların önem kazandığının belirlenmesi ve bu konuda çalışacak araştırmacılara yol göstermesi açısından önemlidir.
