Telementoring Intervention (ECHO) for the Transformation of Professional Engagement, Practice Efficiency, and Community Building Through Team Meetings in Diagnostic Imaging Clinicians

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the feasibility of the proposed anti-burnout intervention for faculty at MD Anderson, defined as at least 35/50 of participants each attending at least 9 out of 13 sessions.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To explore any changes in burnout, measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Mini-Z surveys.

II. To explore any changes in the self-reported health status of participants, as measured by the RAND Short-Form 36 (SF36) survey.

III. To understand participants' perception of the benefits and usefulness of the intervention, measured by the customized Globalized Perception/Impression of Benefits Survey.

IV. To define methods for improving the intervention, based on participants' feedback following each session.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Participants attend ECHO telementoring sessions over 1 hour weekly for 13 weeks.

ARM B: Participants are placed on a wait-list for 13 weeks and then attend ECHO telementoring sessions over 1 hour weekly for 13 weeks.
