| Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Multidisciplinary residents rely on intrinsic and extrinsic factors to determine their individual perception of quality of life. These healthcare professionals work under pressure, and stressful situations can lead to psychological and psychosomatic changes. OBJECTIVE: To analyze work, health, and quality of life among Brazilian multidisciplinary residents. METHODS: An integrative literature review was conducted using the standardized MeSH descriptors ("Quality of Life," "Internship and Residency," and "Patient Care Team") and their equivalents in Portuguese (DeCS) and Spanish in the Medline, Lilacs, and Cinahl databases. The article selection process followed PRISMA recommendations, and the articles were classified according to their level of evidence based on the American AHRQ framework. RESULTS: A total of 2,001 articles were identified, of which six addressed the proposed theme and were selected for the sample. CONCLUSION: Knowledge exchange, social and family recognition, peer acknowledgment of this new phase, and patients' recognition of the benefits generated by their practice contribute to positive perceptions. Conversely, work overload, relational difficulties among peers, patient loss, and clinical practice errors generate negative perceptions, leading to distress, illness, and even withdrawal from the residency program.
