Objective: To identify the prevalence of Burnout Syndrome and AS associated sociodemographic and occupational characteristics in nurses of FHTs from municipalities of the 28th Health Region of Rio Grande do Sul. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, including Family Health Strategy nurses from 13 municipalities of a region of southern Brazil that answered an online questionnaire with sociodemographic and occupational aspects and the Maslach Burnout Inventory to measure the SB outcome from March to August 2018. Results: A total of 47 nurses answered the instrument. The prevalence of SB was 57.4%. Nurses with an interest in changing jobs, as well as those working in the urban area, had an association with SB (p≤0.05).
