The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant mental health toll on healthcare workers in Lebanon. We examined pandemic-related psychological distress among healthcare workers in a tertiary care medical center. One hundred and fifty participants completed an online questionnaire. About half showed a high risk of acute distress (58.7%) on the GHQ-28, while most (89.3%) scored low/moderate stress on the PSS-10. The IES-R revealed concern for post-traumatic stress in one-third of participants, significantly in nurses ( = 0.008) and those living with vulnerable individuals ( = 0.030). Mental health history did not increase the risk. Our findings highlight the need for early targeted interventions during the pandemic.
黎巴嫩的医护人员在新冠疫情中承受了巨大的心理健康压力。我们研究了一家三级医疗中心医护人员与疫情相关的心理困扰。150 名参与者完成了在线问卷。约一半的人在 GHQ-28 上表现出高度的急性压力风险（58.7%），而大多数人（89.3%）在 PSS-10 上得分较低/中等。IES-R 显示三分之一的参与者对创伤后应激表示关注，护士（ = 0.008）和与弱势群体一起生活的人（ = 0.030）中这一比例显著增加。心理健康史并不能增加风险。我们的研究结果强调了在疫情期间需要及早进行有针对性的干预。
