Abstract

Background: The current study aimed to develop and implement the National Assistance in Mental Health for Health Care Providers (NAMAH) module, which focused on wellness and building resilience for a cohort of physicians.

Methods: The NAMAH module is a 12-week tele-mentoring program leveraging videoconference technology that uses the ECHO (Extension of Community Healthcare Outcome) HUB and SPOKE and consists of real-life case discussions and a brief didactic. The module's content was developed after iterative feedback from experts and incorporated suggestions from healthcare providers (HCPs) following a needs assessment. A pre and post-design was used to assess the impact of the module on psychological distress using the self-reported Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and burnout using the Maslach Burnout-Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) among the 32 physicians who participated.

Results: There was a significant decrease in the mean scores before (19.5 ± 6.27) and after (17.38 ± 6.23) the NAMAH module (p < .05) in the psychological distress as measured by K 10 with a Cohen's d of 0.41 (95% CI: 0.05-0.77). There was also a significant decrease in the mean scores after the intervention in the emotional exhaustion and depersonalization domain of the MBI-HSS with a medium effect size (Cohen's d of 0.65) and large effect size (Cohen's d of 0.94), respectively.

Conclusion: The findings from this pilot study lay a foundational framework, encouraging further exploration, research, and scaling-up of such interventions to enhance mental health among physicians and HCPs.

NAMAH--一项旨在促进医生身心健康的创新型远程 ECO 指导计划。

研究背景本研究旨在开发和实施 "全国医疗保健提供者心理健康援助"（NAMAH）模块，该模块重点关注医生群体的健康和复原力建设：NAMAH 模块是一项为期 12 周的远程指导计划，利用视频会议技术，使用 ECHO（社区医疗保健成果扩展）HUB 和 SPOKE，包括真实案例讨论和简短的说教。该模块的内容是在专家反复反馈后开发的，并采纳了医疗保健提供者 (HCP) 在需求评估后提出的建议。在 32 名参与的医生中，使用自我报告的凯斯勒心理压力量表（K10）和马斯拉赫倦怠-发明-人类服务调查（MBI-HSS）评估了该模块对心理压力和倦怠的影响：在接受 NAMAH 模块治疗前（19.5 ± 6.27）和治疗后（17.38 ± 6.23），K10 量表测量的心理压力平均得分明显下降（p < .05），Cohen's d 为 0.41（95% CI：0.05-0.77）。干预后，MBI-HSS 的情绪衰竭和人格解体领域的平均得分也有明显下降，分别达到了中等效应（Cohen's d 为 0.65）和较大效应（Cohen's d 为 0.94）：这项试点研究的结果奠定了一个基础框架，鼓励进一步探索、研究和推广此类干预措施，以提高医生和保健人员的心理健康水平。
