O esgotamento profissional (EP) caracteriza-se por exaustão emocional, despersonalização, e baixa realização profissional, podendo ocorrer entre profissionais da saúde. Esse artigo avalia o EP entre trabalhadores da Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) em três municípios de pequeno porte da Zona da Mata Mineira. O estudo analisa a associação por regressão logística entre EP, aspectos socioeconômicos, demográficos e aspectos do trabalho. Um total de 149 profissionais foi selecionado, destes 107 responderam a todos os questionários. Para mensurar o EP foi utilizado o Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) e para a caracterização dos profissionais foi utilizado outro questionário segundo três diferentes questões: aspectos individuais, sociodemográficos e área de cobertura da equipe. Foram classificados 101 profissionais com indicação positiva para EP (41,6%). As variáveis presentes no modelo de regressão logística backward stepwise associadas positivamente com indicativo de esgotamento profissional foram: possuir idade inferior a mediana da população (>29,5 anos) e fazer uso de medicamentos “calmantes, tranqüilizantes e remédios para dormir”. Os resultados contribuem para identificar fatores associados com o esgotamento profissional e apontam, neste sentido, para a necessidade de investigações mais detalhadas.

This article evaluates burnout among workers in Primary Health Care (PHC) in three small towns in the Zona da Mata Mineira. The study analyses associations by logistic regression between burnout, socioeconomic, and demographic aspects of the work. A total of 149 professionals were selected, 107 of these responded to all questionnaires. To measure the burnout was used Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and to characterize the professional was used a questionnaire in three different issues: individual aspects, sociodemographic and area coverage team. Were classified 101 professionals with positive indication for burnout (41,6%). The variables present in the backward stepwise logistic regression model positively associated with indicative of burnout were: being younger than the population median (> 29.5 years) and use of drugs "sedatives, tranquilizers and sleeping pills". The results help to identify factors associated with burnout and point in this sense the need for more detailed investigations.
