BACKGROUND/AIM: Despite the large amount of clinical data available of Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19), not many studies have been conducted about the psychological toll on Health Care Workers (HCWs).
In this multicentric descriptive study, surveys were distributed among 4 different Breast Cancer Centers (BCC). BCCs were distinguished according to COVID-19 tertiary care hospital (COVID/No-COVID) and district prevalence (DP) (High vs. Low). DASS-21 score, PSS score and demographic data (age, sex, work) were evaluated.
A total of 51 HCWs were analyzed in the study. Age, work and sex did not demonstrate statistically significant values. Statistically significant distribution was found between DASS-21-stress score and COVID/No-COVID (p=0.043). No difference was found in the remaining DASS-21 and PSS scores, dividing the HCWs according to COVID-19-hospital and DP.
Working in a COVID-19-hospital represents a factor that negatively affects psychosocial well-being. However, DP seems not to affect the psychosocial well-being of BCC HCWs. During the outbreak, psychological support for low risk HCWs should be provided regardless DP.
背景/目的:尽管有大量关于冠状病毒 19 型(COVID-19)的临床数据,但针对医护人员(HCWs)的心理影响,却没有太多研究。
在这项多中心描述性研究中,我们向 4 家不同的乳腺癌中心(BCC)发放了调查问卷。根据 COVID-19 三级保健医院(COVID/No-COVID)和地区流行率(DP)(高 vs. 低)区分 BCC。评估了 DASS-21 评分、PSS 评分和人口统计学数据(年龄、性别、工作)。
本研究共分析了 51 名 HCWs。年龄、工作和性别没有显示出统计学上的显著差异。在 COVID/No-COVID 之间,DASS-21 压力评分存在统计学显著分布(p=0.043)。根据 COVID-19 医院和 DP 对 HCWs 进行划分,在剩余的 DASS-21 和 PSS 评分中没有发现差异。
在 COVID-19 医院工作是一个对心理社会健康产生负面影响的因素。然而,DP 似乎不会影响 BCC HCWs 的心理社会健康。在疫情期间,无论 DP 如何,都应向低风险 HCWs 提供心理支持。
