The study aimed to explore the effects of psychological intervention on alleviating anxiety in patients in novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) isolation wards.
Between January 24th, 2020 and March 5th, 2020, 103 patients were studied. Among these, 32 were patients in the isolation ward of the Infectious Disease Department in Baoding Second Hospital with suspected 2019-nCoV, and 71 patients diagnosed with 2019-nCoV were in the Tangshan Infectious Disease Hospital. Of the 103 patients included, 97 cases were observed in isolation. Using a self-control study design, each patient's anxiety was scored on a self-rating anxiety scale before receiving the psychological intervention (on the 7th day of isolation) and after receiving the intervention (on the 14th day of isolation). The severity of anxiety was evaluated based on the anxiety score before receiving the intervention. The anxiety scores before and after receiving the intervention were then compared using the paired t-test, and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
After receiving the psychological intervention once or twice a week, the anxiety of the patients improved significantly after one week.
The anxiety of patients with 2019-nCoV in isolation wards can be alleviated through psychological intervention. By alleviating patient anxiety, this intervention also helps patients maintain their psychological wellbeing, which promotes rehabilitation and helps with the control of 2019-nCoV.
本研究旨在探讨心理干预对缓解新型冠状病毒（2019-nCoV）隔离病房患者焦虑的影响。
2020 年 1 月 24 日至 2020 年 3 月 5 日期间，共研究了 103 例患者。其中，32 例为保定市第二医院传染病科隔离病房疑似 2019-nCoV 的患者，71 例为唐山市传染病医院确诊的 2019-nCoV 患者。103 例患者中，97 例接受隔离观察。采用自身对照研究设计，每位患者在接受心理干预前（隔离第 7 天）和干预后（隔离第 14 天）使用自评焦虑量表对其焦虑程度进行评分。根据干预前的焦虑评分评估焦虑严重程度。采用配对 t 检验比较干预前后的焦虑评分，p<0.05 为差异有统计学意义。
每周接受 1-2 次心理干预后，患者的焦虑在一周后明显改善。
通过心理干预可以缓解隔离病房 2019-nCoV 患者的焦虑。通过缓解患者的焦虑，这种干预还可以帮助患者保持心理健康，促进康复，并有助于控制 2019-nCoV。
