Özet:

 Aim: This study was conducted to determine the mental workload levels of health workers and to examine the relationship between burnout levels. Material and Method: The study population consist of 124 health care workers in a branch hospital in Samsun. A questionnaire was applied to 101 health personnel. Two different questionnaires, respectively, National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index NASA-TLX and Maslach Burnout Inventory were applied. Results: Emotional exhaustion was found to be above the average of 3.25 for physicians and 3.11 for physiotherapists, which is the high threshold of 3. The mental workload average is; It was calculated as 76.25 for physicians, 76.93 for physiotherapists, 70.67 for nurses and 64.73 for other health personnel. A positive directional weak correlation have been found between mental workload and emotional exhaustion r 0.272, p 0.006. However, no significant relationship have been found between the mental work load and the level of personal accomplishment.

 Amaç: Sağlık çalışanlarının zihinsel iş yükü düzeylerini tespit etmek ve tükenmişlik düzeyleri ile olan ilişkisini incelemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmanın evreni olarak Samsun ilinde bir dal hastanesinde görev yapmakta olan 124 sağlık çalışanı alınmış ve 101 sağlık personeline anket uygulanmıştır. Anket olarak zihinsel iş yükü düzeyini belirlemek amacıyla Ulusal Havacılık ve Uzay Kurumu İş Yükü İndeksi National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index-NASA-TLX, tükenmişlik düzeyini belirlemek için ise Maslach Tükenmişlik Envanteri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Duygusal tükenmenin hekimlerde 3.25, fizyoterapistlerde ise 3.11 ile yüksek eşik değeri olan 3 ortalamanın üstünde olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Zihinsel iş yükü ortalaması ise; hekimlerde 76.25, fizyoterapistlerde 76.93, hemşirelerde 70.67 ve diğer sağlık personelinde 64.73 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Zihinsel iş yükü ile duygusal tükenme arasında pozitif yönlü zayıf düzey anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur r0.272, p0.006. Ancak zihinsel iş yükünün duyarsızlaşma ve kişisel başarı düzeyi ile arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunamamıştır. Sonuç: Sağlık çalışanlarının zihinsel iş yükü düzeyinde meydana gelen artış duygusal tükenme düzeyini de artırmaktadır. Ayrıca zihinsel iş yükü düzeyi ve tükenmişlik düzeyi sağlık çalışanlarının mesleklerine göre farklılıklar gösterebilmektedir.
