Resumo: | Introduction: The coronavirus outbreak 2019 (COVID-19) has overloaded healthcare professionals with a significant amount of stress. Objectives: The aim of this study is to analyze demographic and sentiments in healthcare providers associated with the exposure to patients with COVID-19. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted with data remotely obtained in the period between March 20, to September 20 through a project created in March 2020 named TELEPAN Saúde UFMG, which redirects healthcare workers to volunteer psychologists, psychiatrists and other professionals. Summary of the main complaint, profession, workplace, preferred time for contact and preference media for contact were obtained from each patient. Sentiments were grouped into categories. Then, an exploratory and descriptive analysis were conducted. Results: The median age of patients was 36 years of age (21 to 64). Most professionals were women (85.45%) and came from primary care, emergency services, or secondary level of care (hospitals). Primary care professionals had a higher median of age, while those working on emergency establishments had the lowest. Suicidal thoughts or emergent needs were present in 7.27% of cases. Minas Gerais (southeast region) had the highest number of patients. A significant proportion of providers suffered from symptoms of anxiety and exhaustion (11.82%), followed by sadness with anxiety. Insomnia affected 17 professionals (15.45%), and fear of being infected, 8 patients (7.27%). Conclusions: Middle-aged female healthcare professionals, mainly from primary care establishments in Brazil, were the most affected workers by anxiety, exhaustion and insomnia during COVID-19 outbreak. |

Objetivos: O objetivo deste estudo é analisar demografia e sentimentos em profissionais de saúde associados à exposição a pacientes com COVID-19. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal com dados obtidos remotamente no período de 20 de março a 20 de setembro por meio de um projeto criado em março de 2020 denominado TELEPAN Saúde UFMG, que redireciona profissionais de saúde para psicólogos, psiquiatras e outros profissionais voluntários. Resumo da queixa principal, profissão, local de trabalho, horário preferencial para contato e mídia de preferência para contato foram obtidos de cada paciente. Os sentimentos foram agrupados em categorias. Em seguida, foi realizada uma análise exploratória e descritiva. Resultados: A idade mediana dos pacientes foi de 36 anos (21 a 64). A maioria dos profissionais era do sexo feminino (85,45%) e vinha da atenção primária, serviços de emergência ou nível secundário de atenção (hospitais). Os profissionais da atenção básica apresentaram maior mediana de idade, enquanto os que trabalhavam em estabelecimentos de emergência tiveram a menor. Pensamentos suicidas ou necessidades emergentes estiveram presentes em 7,27% dos casos. Minas Gerais (região sudeste) teve o maior número de pacientes. Uma proporção significativa de provedores sofria de sintomas de ansiedade e exaustão (11,82%), seguido de tristeza com ansiedade. A insônia atingiu 17 profissionais (15,45%), e o medo de ser infectado, 8 pacientes (7,27%). Conclusões: As profissionais de saúde do sexo feminino de meia-idade, principalmente de estabelecimentos de atenção primária no Brasil, foram as trabalhadoras mais afetadas por ansiedade, exaustão e insônia durante o surto de COVID-19.Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisBrasilMED - DEPARTAMENTO DE MEDICINA PREVENTIVA SOCIALUFMG2024-07-02T15:48:10Z2024-07-02T15:48:10Z2021info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlepdfapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.32443/2175-2990(2021)3872175-2990http://hdl.handle.net/1843/69579https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6159-8614https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9098-1089https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3792-5288https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9729-9808https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6394-9692https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0899-2003https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4271-6704https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6363-2932https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6863-637Xhttps://orcid.org/0000-0003-1635-5175engLatin american journal of telehealthThales Pardini FagundesJulia Cheik AndradeGuilherme Teixeira ChateaubriandNicole Font dos SantosIsabela Botelho PiovezanFelippe Miranda RibasMadara da Silva SimõesBruno Henrique Lima SantosKarine Laurindo de AlmeidaHelena Pereira OliveiraHelian Nunes de Oliveirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMG2024-07-02T15:48:11Zoai:repositorio.ufmg.br:1843/69579Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttps://repositorio.ufmg.br/oairepositorio@ufmg.bropendoar:2024-07-02T15:48:11Repositório Institucional da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |
