"This study focuses on burnout among healthcare workers in emergency departments in Dongola, Northern State, Sudan. Burnout is a work-related condition characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment, and emergency department staff may be exposed to heavy workloads, shift work, workplace stress, and violence. The study aims to determine the prevalence and level of burnout, assess its three dimensions, identify associated sociodemographic, occupational, and workplace factors, and compare burnout among physicians, nurses, and paramedics."

Participants' confidentiality and anonymity will be maintained throughout the study. Questionnaires will not include participants' names. Data will be coded, electronic data will be password protected, and results will be reported in an aggregated form. Only the research team will have access to the collected data.

The study involves minimal physical risk. Some participants may experience mild psychological or emotional discomfort when answering questions related to burnout, workload, workplace stress, or workplace violence. There is also a potential risk of confidentiality, which will be minimized through anonymous questionnaires, coding of data, password protection and aggregated reporting.

Participants may not receive a direct personal benefit from participating in the study. However, the study may help identify the prevalence and factors associated with burnout among emergency department healthcare workers. The findings may provide evidence to hospital administrators and policymakers to develop staff-support, workload-management, and workplace improvement strategies, which may contribute to maintaining the quality of emergency car.
