Some studies have the objective of investigating the work context and the psychosocial risks of medical residency. Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze the work context, the communal mental upheavals, the agitation, and the suicidal ideation between preceptors and residents of the Medical Residency Program in Orthopedics and Traumatology at a university hospital. This is a case study, with a mixed focus, in which semi-structured interviews were carried out and applied to the Work Context Assessment Scale, General Health Questionnaire (v.12), Burnout Characterization Scale, Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire, and a socio demographic survey. The medical residency studied had good working conditions, but socio-professional relationships and work organization were critical. It showed a prevalence of mental disorders with moderate levels, and low scores related to burnout. The main complaints are related to work overload, stress, anxiety, and a case of suicidal ideation. It is necessary to implant interventional devices, in order to promote socio-professional support in the medical residency of orthopedics and traumatology.

Palabras clave : work conditions; psychosocial risks; medical residency.
