Burnout among Japanese emergency medicine physicians: A multicentric questionnaire study.

Our results suggest that 8.9% of Japanese EPs are in higher degrees of burnout. In particular, Japanese EPs scored more severely on PA. To avoid burnout in Japanese EPs, it is important to improve the working environment by ensuring more than 6 h of sleep, providing more support for young EPs, and taking effective action to combat low EP self-esteem.
