dc.description.abstract | Background: The aims of this study were to evaluate the short-term impact of 2019-nCoV outbreak on the mental/
psychological state of Spaniard health care workers (HCWs) and to explore the influencing factors, including
organizational factors.
Methods: : A web-based survey (Google forms questionnaire) spread via professional and scientific associations,
professional WhatsApp and email lists, following a snowball technique was used. Data were collected from May
11th and May 31st, 2020
Results: : A total of 1407 subjects were included in final analyses. 24.7% (348 out of 1407) of HCWs reported
symptoms of acute stress (SARS-Q measurement) and 53.6% (754 out of 1407) reported symptoms related to
poorer general health (GHQ-28 measurement). A higher risk of having an acute stress disorder was associated to
being female, not having access to protective material, and several subjects´perceived risks. Additionally, poorer
overall general health (GHQ>24) was related to being female, working in a geographical area with a high
incidence of infection, not being listened to by your co-workers, having a greater perception of stress at work and
being able to transmit the infection to others.
Limitations: : We must consider a likely memory bias.
Conclusion: : The high prevalence of affective and general health symptoms among the HCWs and the critical
influence of organizational issues and subjects´ perceived risk should lead health authorities to design future
strategies to protect health professional force for facing a potential upcoming epidemiological crisis. | es |
