BACKGROUND
Nurses who are one of the pivotal elements of countries' strategic responses to COVID-19 are being exposed to COVID-19.
AIMS
To investigate the underlying characteristics of nurses who died due to COVID-19.
METHODS
On 1 September 2020, a grey literature search was conducted. Data obtained through Medscape, Google, PubMed, government and non-government websites. The search strategy was carried out using variants and combinations of keywords related to 'nurse' and 'COVID-19' in English. Abstracted data included age, gender, type of nurse, department of nursing, country, date of death and publication characteristics.
RESULTS
Out of reported 1518 COVID-19-related nurse deaths, details of age, gender and department of nursing were available for 766 (50%), 945 (62%) and 153 (10%) of nurses, respectively. The median age of the nurses was 56 years. The majority of deaths were reported in the 46- to 65 (32%)-year age range. While the registered nurses had the highest number of deaths according to types of nurses (680/957; 71%), they are mental health nurses (42/153; 28%) in the department of nursing. The countries with the most reported nurse deaths were USA, South Africa, Mexico and Russia.
CONCLUSIONS
The predominance of deceased mental health nurses among nursing departments can be examined in future studies. Supportive health policies can be developed to increase the motivation of nurses.
背景
护士是各国应对 COVID-19 战略的关键要素之一，他们正面临着 COVID-19 的威胁。
目的
调查因 COVID-19 而死亡的护士的基本特征。
方法
2020 年 9 月 1 日，进行了灰色文献检索。数据来自 Medscape、Google、PubMed、政府和非政府网站。使用与“护士”和“COVID-19”相关的关键词的变体和组合，进行了搜索策略。提取的数据包括年龄、性别、护士类型、护理部门、国家、死亡日期和出版特征。
结果
在所报告的 1518 例与 COVID-19 相关的护士死亡中，766 例（50%）、945 例（62%）和 153 例（10%）的护士的年龄、性别和护理部门的详细信息可用。护士的中位年龄为 56 岁。大多数死亡发生在 46 至 65 岁（32%）年龄范围。虽然按护士类型登记的死亡人数最多（957 例中有 680 例；71%），但在护理部门中，精神科护士（153 例中有 42 例；28%）的死亡人数最多。报告护士死亡人数最多的国家是美国、南非、墨西哥和俄罗斯。
结论
在未来的研究中，可以进一步研究护理部门中死亡的精神科护士居多的现象。可以制定支持性的卫生政策来提高护士的积极性。
