Abstract

BACKGROUND

College students show higher prevalence of mental health issues as compared to the general population. Unfortunately, this year, students all over the world have to face, added pressure due to COVID-19. This study aimed to estimate the effect of COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown on the mental health of Medical and Engineering Students.

SUBJECTS AND METHODS

The study was carried out at different medical and engineering colleges in Bihar, Delhi and Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu. 699 responses were collected and analyzed during the study period. Data was collected by email/ online platform through Google form via non- probability Sampling Technique. Mental health status was determined by using Corona virus anxiety screening (CAS), GHQ (General Health Questionnaire)-12, GAD (General Anxiety Disorder)-7 scale and PHQ (Patient Health Questionnaire)-9 scales.369 (53%) MBBS and 330 (47%) Engineering students participated in the study.

RESULTS

Maximum participants in both groups did not have anxiety related to COVID-19 (MBBS (96.8%) and Engineering (95.2%). About two-third participants secured above cut off score i.e., MBBS (62.3%) and Engineering (64.8%) in GHQ-12. Approximately comparable proportion in both groups were found to have severe anxiety and depression (16% vs 20%), when applied GAD-7 and PHQ-9. Uncertainty in the timing of the exams/ Academic delay was found to be the most worrying factor (MBBS, 41.19% vs Engineering 31.82%).

CONCLUSIONS

About two-thirds of medical and engineering students psychologically equally affected by current pandemic in our study. A student wellness clinic is the need of hour in current scenario, which is supported by mental health experts (Psychiatrists, Clinical Psychologists) and residents on rotation basiswhere all psychological problem including Stress, Anxiety, Interpersonal crisis, Relationship issues and Personality problems of the students are dealt effectively in institute campus near to student residential area.

摘要

背景

与普通人群相比，大学生的心理健康问题更为普遍。不幸的是，今年，世界各地的学生都因 COVID-19 而面临额外的压力。本研究旨在评估 COVID-19 大流行和封锁对医学生和工科学生心理健康的影响。

受试者和方法

该研究在比哈尔邦、德里和马哈拉施特拉邦以及泰米尔纳德邦的不同医学院和工程学院进行。在研究期间共收集和分析了 699 份回复。通过电子邮件/在线平台通过非概率抽样技术使用 Google 表格收集数据。通过冠状病毒焦虑筛查（CAS）、一般健康问卷（GHQ）-12、一般焦虑障碍（GAD）-7 量表和患者健康问卷（PHQ）-9 量表来确定心理健康状况。369 名（53%）MBBS 和 330 名（47%）工科学生参与了这项研究。

结果

两组学生中，大多数学生没有与 COVID-19 相关的焦虑（MBBS（96.8%）和工科（95.2%）。大约三分之二的参与者在 GHQ-12 中获得了高于截止分数，即 MBBS（62.3%）和工科（64.8%）。在应用 GAD-7 和 PHQ-9 时，两组学生中都有大约相同比例的学生出现严重焦虑和抑郁（16%对 20%）。不确定考试时间/学业延迟被认为是最令人担忧的因素（MBBS，41.19%比工程 31.82%）。

结论

在我们的研究中，大约三分之二的医学生和工科学生在当前的大流行中受到同样的心理影响。在当前情况下，学生健康诊所是急需的，它得到了心理健康专家（精神病学家、临床心理学家）和轮值居民的支持，在学院校园内为学生提供了一个靠近学生住宅区的地方，有效地处理所有心理问题，包括压力、焦虑、人际危机、人际关系问题和学生的人格问题。
