Association of pediatric resident physician depression and burnout with harmful medical errors on inpatient services.
The objective of this paper was to determine whether higher rates of medical errors were associated with positive screenings for depression or burnout among resident physicians. Results of this prospective cohort study showed that resident physicians with a positive depression screen were three times more likely than those who screened negative to make harmful errors, indicating the importance of determining what interventions might mitigate the patient safety risk.

Decisions and repercussions of second victim experiences for mothers in medicine (SAVE DR MoM).
Researchers characterized events contributing to the second-victim effect among a diverse sample of physician mothers, described the impact on both provider and patient, and sought to determine the association between experiencing a mistake and burnout. They found that physician mothers involved in errors experience negative outcomes and may be at increased risk for burnout. They recommended additional research focusing on strategies to mitigate burnout associated with the second victim effect, particularly among women physicians and those with family responsibilities.

Predictors and outcomes of burnout in primary care physicians.
This study assessed relationships between primary care work conditions, physician burnout, quality of care, and medical errors. It found that burnout is highly associated with adverse work conditions and a greater intention to leave the practice, but not with adverse patient outcomes. Care quality thus appears to be preserved at great personal cost to primary care physicians.
