Healthcare workers, who are at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19, are particularly susceptible to physical and mental health consequences such as anxiety and depression. The aim of this umbrella review of meta-analyses is to determine the prevalence of anxiety and depression among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Using relevant keywords, data resources including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane, ProQuest, Science Direct, Google Scholar and Embase were searched to obtain systematic reviews and meta-analyses reporting the prevalence of anxiety and depression among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic from the beginning of January to the end of October 2020. The random effects model was used for meta-analysis, and the I index was employed to assess heterogeneity among studies. Data was analyzed using STATA 14 software.
In the primary search, 103 studies were identified, and ultimately 7 studies were included in the umbrella review. The results showed that the overall prevalence of anxiety and depression among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic was 24.94% (95% CI: 21.83-28.05, I = 0.0%, P = 0.804) and 24.83% (95% CI: 21.41-28.25, I = 0.0%, P = 0.897), respectively.
This umbrella review shows that the prevalence of anxiety and depression is relatively high among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare workers should be provided with resources to minimize this risk.
医护人员作为抗击 COVID-19 的第一线人员,特别容易受到焦虑和抑郁等身心健康后果的影响。本次汇总分析的目的是确定 COVID-19 大流行期间医护人员焦虑和抑郁的患病率。
使用相关关键字,检索包括 PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science、Cochrane、ProQuest、Science Direct、Google Scholar 和 Embase 在内的数据资源,以获取系统评价和荟萃分析,报告 COVID-19 大流行期间医护人员的焦虑和抑郁患病率。从 2020 年 1 月初到 10 月底,采用随机效应模型进行荟萃分析,并使用 I 指数评估研究之间的异质性。使用 STATA 14 软件进行数据分析。
在初次搜索中,共发现 103 项研究,最终有 7 项研究纳入汇总分析。结果显示,COVID-19 大流行期间医护人员焦虑和抑郁的总体患病率分别为 24.94%(95% CI:21.83-28.05,I ² = 0.0%,P = 0.804)和 24.83%(95% CI:21.41-28.25,I ² = 0.0%,P = 0.897)。
本次汇总分析表明,COVID-19 大流行期间医护人员焦虑和抑郁的患病率相对较高。应为医护人员提供资源以最大程度地降低这种风险。
