ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Maslach and Jackson proposed a comprehensive and multi-dimensional description of burnout. They developed an inventory of occupational burnout to detect and measure its level.

Aim of the research:
A meta-analysis of published studies on burnout among European psychiatric nurses using MBI.

Material and methods:
A systematic review of studies published in the following databases was made: PubMed, Web of Science, ProQuest, and Google Scholar. Works published between 01/01/2018 and 31/12/2020 have been taken into account. Two meta-analyses were performed: quantitative in the group of 740 and qualitative in the group of 2378 nurses.

Results:
The analysis of metanalyses showed that the level of burnout of the respondents in terms of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization is medium. The quantitative analysis showed a high level and the qualitative analysis a low level of one’s own achievements.

Conclusions:
European psychiatric nurses show moderate burnout in terms of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization.
