About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the level of decision fatigue among anesthesiologists actively practicing in clinical settings in Turkey and to examine its relationship with emotional exhaustion. Participants will complete an online survey including demographic information, the Decision Fatigue Scale (DFS), and the Emotional Exhaustion subscale of the Maslach Burnout Inventory. The study will explore associations between decision fatigue scores and demographic or professional variables, as well as correlations with emotional exhaustion levels. Data will be collected anonymously and analyzed to identify factors contributing to cognitive load and burnout among anesthesiologists.
