Burnout was associated with self-reported medical errors. The results of this cross-sectional study suggest that depression but not physician burnout is directly associated with suicidal ideation. In the adjusted model for self-reported medical errors, each SD-unit increase in burnout was associated with an increase in self-reported medical errors (OR, 1.48 95% CI, 1.28-1.71), whereas depression was not associated with self-reported medical errors (OR, 1.01 95% CI, 0.88-1.16). In the adjusted model, each SD-unit increase in depression was associated with 202% increased odds of suicidal ideation (OR, 3.02 95% CI, 2.30-3.95). After adjusting for depression, there was no longer an association (OR, 0.85 95% CI, 0.63-1.17). Each SD-unit increase in burnout was associated with 85% increased odds of suicidal ideation (odds ratio, 1.85 95% CI, 1.47-2.31). Associations were evaluated using multivariable regression models.
