Objective: to estimate the prevalence of Burnout Syndrome, and identify the sociodemographic, occupational, lifestyle, and health profile of multi-professional healthcare residents at a public university in Bahia, Brazil. Methods: a descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with 63 residents, using the Maslach Burnout Inventory and a questionnaire on sociodemographic, labor, lifestyle, and health issues. Results: on examining the dimensions of the syndrome, 82.5% were found to present high levels of emotional exhaustion; 55.5%, moderate levels of depersonalization; and 88.8%, high levels of diminished professional fulfilment. Burnout occurred most often in nurses (50%), professionals working in hospitals (71.4%) and recent graduates (mean 2.1 years), while 60.3% of the residents regarded their diet at unhealthy, and 29.5% were overweight. Conclusion: the results indicate a significant prevalence of Burnout Syndrome, and marked changes in the three dimensions of the syndrome were found in 22.2% of the residents.
