Abstract
Caseload midwifery was associated with lower burnout scores, which is in accordance with the results from other studies on burnout among caseloading midwives. The proportion of high score among all the midwives in this study were low compared to results from other countries. According to the high response rate the results are valid for this maternity unit but this study is too small to be generalised. This study should be repeated among all midwives in Denmark. In studies of burnout in caseload midwifery the midwives' self-selection into this workform needs consideration.
