Abstract
In addition to the above mentioned four main roles, anaesthesiologist should be highly self-motivated and have the ability to withstand long working hours and night shifts. A considerable number of consensual factors (time constraints, excessive and fluctuating workload, complexity of task, lack of job control) can cause stress, resulting in a high burn-out rate among anesthesiologist. Personal factors such as a high level of emotional intelligence and realistic self-awareness are important prerequisites for this profession and have to be fostered throughout the professional development and career.
