Abstract

We aimed at investigating the association of personal and work-related burnout with blood pressure and hypertension among working adults in Chile. We conducted a cross-sectional study among 1872 working adults attending the Hospital del Trabajador in Santiago, Chile, between September 2015 and February 2018. The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory was used to assess personal and work-related burnout. Blood pressure was measured by medical practitioners. Multivariable linear and logistic regressions were used to estimate the association of burnout status with systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and hypertension. After adjusting for confounders, participants with both types of burnout had a 1.66 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.02–3.30) mmHg higher mean DBP than those without burnout. The odds of isolated diastolic hypertension among the participants with only personal burnout and both types of burnout were 2.00-fold (odds ratio [OR] = 2.00; 95% CI: 1.21–3.31) and 2.08-fold (OR = 2.08; 95% CI: 1.15–3.78) higher than those without burnout. The odds of combined systolic/diastolic hypertension among the participants with only work-related burnout increased by 59% (OR = 1.59; 95% CI: 1.01–2.50) compared with those without burnout. Both work-related and personal burnouts were associated with increased DBP and odds of diastolic hypertension among working adults in Chile.
