The impact of waiting for surgery on the mental health of patients usually receives little attention. Because of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the waits for elective surgery have been lengthening, potentially inducing or exacerbating mental health burdens. Provinces' health systems need to provide better support to assess not only patients' physical health, but also their mental health, and provide them with timely access to care based on need. A stepped care approach is needed to mitigate negative mental health effects associated with prolonged waits for elective operations. To provide the best care possible, we need to recognize and address both the physical and mental health problems of our waiting patients.
等待手术对患者心理健康的影响通常很少受到关注。由于 2019 冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行，择期手术的等待时间延长，可能会导致或加重心理健康负担。各省的卫生系统需要提供更好的支持，不仅要评估患者的身体健康，还要评估他们的心理健康，并根据需要为他们提供及时的护理。需要采取分级护理方法来减轻与择期手术长时间等待相关的负面心理健康影响。为了提供尽可能好的护理，我们需要认识到并解决等候患者的身体和心理健康问题。
