- A randomized clinical trial tested a parental support package for pregnant and postpartum trainees to reduce burnout.
- The package included a smart bassinet, wearable breast pump, virtual perinatal support, and formal faculty mentorship.
- Burnout scores increased less in the support group compared to usual care, with a statistically significant difference.
- The reduction in burnout was driven by improvements in interpersonal disengagement, not emotional exhaustion.
