Resumen A review. Critical-care medical centres exert different types of stress, such as hard work and problems about patient care, the physician's own identity, human relationships, ethics, etc. Physicians often fall into exhaustion, aggressive behaviour, or "burn-out syndrome". Some of them show inappropriate adaptation or defense against such stress; insisting on staying at the hospital day and night without taking care of their own families, or behaving cynically and concealing their own feelings. Physicians may be able to cope with the stress by making a clear separation between work and other area of life, and spending time with their families or close friends. Rational efforts to establish a more acceptable working system would also help them.
