title: [Facilitating the diagnosis of depression and burnout by identifying demographic and work-related risk and protective factors among nurses].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Depression and burnout are frequent comorbidities among nurses. Despite similar symptoms, their management differ. Therefore, their timely diagnosis is essential.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To identify demographic and work-related risk and protective factors of burnout and depression, and facilitate their diagnosis.
  
  
  METHODS
  A cross-sectional study among 1,713 nurses was carried out. Depression and burnout were assessed by the shortened Beck Depression Questionnaire and Maclach Burnout Inventory, respectively. Risk and protective factors were explored using t-tests and analysis of variance.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The prevalence of depression and moderate-to-high burnout was 35.1% and 34-74%, respectively. Having a partner/child and longer employment in the outpatient setting protected from burnout. Lack of a partner and male sex emerged as risk factors of depression and depersonalisation, respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  High prevalence of depression and burnout among nurses poses a significant public health issue. Familiarity with the disease-specific risk and protective factors identified in this research may facilitate timely diagnosis and effective disease management.
