Abstract

This systematic review was conducted to estimate the pooled score of death anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic. All eligible articles from January 2020 to May 2022 reporting the death anxiety score were included in the analysis b.y searching the Scopus, PubMed, Embase, and ISI databases. The standard score of death anxiety in the COVID-19 pandemic was 50%. The highest score of death anxiety was related to patients with COVID-19 (59.4%), other chronic patients (58.9%), and the elderly (56.4%). The lowest death anxiety score was related to the general population (42.9%) and health care workers (48.2%). The death anxiety score in the studies whose data was collected in 2020 and 2021 was 51% and 62%, respectively. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people experienced high death anxiety, which had terrible effects on their lives. Therefore, it seems necessary to provide training courses to deal with death anxiety for other possible pandemics.

关于 COVID-19 大流行期间死亡焦虑的系统回顾和元分析。

本系统综述旨在估算 COVID-19 大流行期间死亡焦虑的综合得分。通过检索 Scopus、PubMed、Embase 和 ISI 数据库，将 2020 年 1 月至 2022 年 5 月期间所有符合条件的报告死亡焦虑评分的文章纳入分析。COVID-19 大流行中死亡焦虑的标准分是 50%。死亡焦虑得分最高的人群是 COVID-19 患者（59.4%）、其他慢性病患者（58.9%）和老年人（56.4%）。死亡焦虑得分最低的是普通人群（42.9%）和医护人员（48.2%）。在 2020 年和 2021 年收集数据的研究中，死亡焦虑得分分别为 51% 和 62%。在 COVID-19 大流行期间，人们经历了高度的死亡焦虑，这对他们的生活造成了可怕的影响。因此，似乎有必要为其他可能发生的大流行病提供应对死亡焦虑的培训课程。
