Abstract

Background: COVID-19 pandemic disturbed mental health of healthcare personnel. Residents of the specialization programs could be at risk, since they were reassigned in their functions.

Aim: To describe the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on symptoms of depression, stress, anxiety and resilient coping in residents of Anesthesiology, Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine Material and Methods: Residents were invited to answer an online survey containing the DASS-21 scale for anxiety, stress and depression symptoms and the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS) for resilience skills.

Results: Fifty four out of 90 residents answered the survey. Eighteen to 24% of respondents had symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress at severe and extremely severe levels. Those with severe and extremely severe symptoms had also the lowest score on the BRCS resilience scale. We did not find an association between severity of symptoms and gender.

Discussion: A proportion of respondent residents had severe psychological symptoms and lower resilience scores during the COVID-19 pandemic.

【新冠肺炎疫情对三专科住院医师心理健康的影响】。

背景:COVID-19大流行对医护人员心理健康的影响。专业项目的住院医生可能会面临风险，因为他们被重新分配了职能。目的:探讨新冠肺炎疫情对麻醉科、内科和急诊科住院医师抑郁、压力、焦虑和弹性应对症状的影响。资料与方法:邀请住院医师填写一份在线调查问卷，问卷内容包括焦虑、压力和抑郁症状的DASS-21量表和弹性技能的简要弹性应对量表(BRCS)。结果:90名居民中有54人回答了调查。18%至24%的受访者有严重和极其严重的抑郁、焦虑和压力症状。那些有严重和极严重症状的人在BRCS恢复力量表上的得分也最低。我们没有发现症状严重程度与性别之间的关联。讨论:在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间，一定比例的受访居民有严重的心理症状和较低的恢复力得分。
