Abstract
This is the eighth official document of the SIOP Working Committee on Psychosocial Issues in Pediatric Oncology, instituted in 1991. It deals with a topic discussed and approved by the SIOP Committee; namely, "Recognition, prevention, and remediation of burnout in health care professionals participating in the care of children with cancer." It is addressed to the Pediatric Oncology community and outlines: 1) the general definition of burnout as mental and physical exhaustion, indifference, sense of failure as a professional, and sense of failure as a person; 2) the causes of burnout from the nature of the work itself, the work environment, and the characteristics of the individual; 3) the prevention of burnout, changing the detrimental aspects of one's work environment and modifying one's own behavior; and accepting methods to remediate burnout when it occurs.
