During the COVID-19, healthcare workers are exposed to a higher risk of mental health problems, especially anxiety symptoms. The current work aims at contributing to an update of anxiety prevalence in this population by conducting a rapid systematic review and meta-analysis. Medline and Pubmed were searched for studies on the prevalence of anxiety in health care workers published from December 1, 2019 to September 15, 2020. In total, 71 studies were included in this study. The pooled prevalence of anxiety in healthcare workers was 25% (95% CI: 21%-29%), 27% in nurses (95% CI: 20%-34%), 17% in medical doctors (95% CI: 12%-22%) and 43% in frontline healthcare workers (95% CI: 25%-62%). Our results suggest that healthcare workers are experiencing significant levels of anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially those on the frontline and nurses. However, international longitudinal studies are needed to fully understand the impact of the pandemic on healthcare workers' mental health, especially those working at the frontline.
在 COVID-19 期间，医护人员面临更高的心理健康问题风险，尤其是焦虑症状。本项工作旨在通过快速系统评价和荟萃分析，为更新该人群中焦虑症的患病率做出贡献。从 2019 年 12 月 1 日至 2020 年 9 月 15 日，在 Medline 和 Pubmed 上检索了关于医护人员焦虑症患病率的研究。共有 71 项研究纳入本研究。医护人员焦虑症的总患病率为 25%（95%CI：21%-29%），护士为 27%（95%CI：20%-34%），医生为 17%（95%CI：12%-22%），一线医护人员为 43%（95%CI：25%-62%）。我们的研究结果表明，医护人员在 COVID-19 大流行期间经历着显著的焦虑水平，尤其是一线医护人员和护士。然而，需要进行国际纵向研究，以充分了解大流行对医护人员心理健康的影响，尤其是对一线医护人员的影响。
