[Professional dysadaptation syndrome in anesthetists-resuscitators].
The professional dysadaptation syndrome (PDS) has just recently been recognized in Russian medicine and regarded as a response to long-term professional stresses. PDS has a high tropicity for educated anesthetists-resuscitators (AR) whose profession is socionomic and high-technonomic. Irrespective of the length of service, psychoemotional stress in AR is significantly higher than that in surgeons. Typical PDS, the so-called alexithymia, the psychological characteristics of a personality, which includes a difficulty in defining and describing his/her own emotions, was identified in 82% of anesthetics and in only 57% of surgeons. Alexithymia is considered as a risk factor of cardiovascular and gastrointestinal diseases. Its correction assumes psychotherapeutic care in the conventional forms. However, only 7.6% of the respondents agreed to be questioned.
