AI-generated Abstract
This study examines the psychological effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on hospital doctors, comparing those with and without PTSD. Results reveal that 15.6% of the 212 surveyed doctors exhibit PTSD symptoms, which correlate with increased exposure to terror outside of work. Significant differences in burnout and coping strategies are identified between both groups, emphasizing the need for early interventions and support for doctors working in high-stress environments.
