PSYCHOEMOTIONAL STATE OF MEDICAL WORKERS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Introduction. Medical workers need to cope with a number of serious problems, ranging from an increased risk of death in medical institutions and at home, an increase in working hours and physical and psychological stress at work, as well as solving difficult situations arising from contact with members of the public and social isolation from colleagues and loved ones. The physical and psychological impact of working during the COVID-19 pandemic was significant: thousands of medical workers worldwide died from SARSCoV-2 infection, and some even committed suicide. It is important to note that healthcare professionals are crucial to any healthcare system. In addition, the negative impact of COVID-19 on global mental health is obviously increasing. From a social perspective, the emerging mental health burden on health care workers and other workers raises serious concerns about the sustainability of health services. Aim: To analyze the literature data on the psycho-emotional state of medical workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Search strategy: The search for sources was carried out in the following bases: Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection, MedLine, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar in the electronic scientific library e-Library.ru, CyberLeninka. Inclusion criteria: the depth of the literature search was 3 years (2019-2021), original articles, literature reviews, meta-analyzes, regulatory documents in English and Russian. Exclusion criteria: publications of low methodological quality, which did not reflect the main importance, with unclear and ambiguous conclusions, repeated publications, conference proceedings and clinical cases. As a result of the search, we identified only 215 foreign and domestic publications, of which 74 publications were included in this review. Results and conclusions: According to the results of our study, numerous publications show that during the COVID-19 pandemic, at least one symptom of emotional burnout and distress was detected in medical workers.
