Abstract
GARCIA-BORRERO, Luis Mauricio; AGUIRRE-ACEVEDO, Daniel Camilo; ZAPATA-RUEDA, Carla María and GARCIA-GARCIA, Héctor Iván. Validity and reliability of the SBI (Spanish Burnout Inventory) in medical surgical specialists. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2022, vol.50, n.2, e201. Epub May 20, 2022.

Introduction:
Burnout Syndrome is the term used to describe the psychological response to patient care-related chronic work stress. Studies have found that the prevalence of practitioner burnout in Colombia ranges between 17.6% and 45%. Given the importance of this phenomenon in our setting, we decided to carry out a validation and reliability study of the Spanish Burnout Inventory (SBI).
Objective:
To assess the validity and reliability of the SBI in medical surgical specialists working in fourteen health care facilities in Antioquia (Colombia) in 2018.
Methods:
The study was conducted in 14 healthcare institutions among 8 surgical specialties. The tool consists of 20 items collected by means of face-to-face interviews under the supervision of a psychologist, and maintaining confidentiality. The psychometric assessment included content validity (CV), construct validity using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and reliability using Cronbach's Alpha.
Results:
The study sample consisted of 234 participants. CV of the tool was 0.82. The CFA showed acceptable model fit, with the results of goodness-of-fit being X2=384.578 (p<0.00i; df: 165), RMSEA = 0.075 [90% CI: 0.066 - 0.085], CFI = 0.953, TLI = 0.946 and WRMR=1.074. The SBI Cronbach's alpha was 0.79.
Conclusions:
The SBI showed acceptable CV levels for all the items and domains. The SBI is a valid tool with adequate reliability for use in medical surgical specialists of healthcare institutions in Antioquia-Colombia.
