Abstract

The Chinese city of Wuhan reported a novel pneumonia, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, by the end of December 2019. The disease, subsequently, came to be known as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and gradually spread around the world [1]. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that the spread of COVID-19 was such that it could be characterized as a pandemic. COVID-19 has a potential impact on the mental health of the general population and at-risk subgroups. One such subgroup is that of healthcare workers. Holmes et al. [2] identified frontline healthcare workers as one of the eight vulnerable groups for mental health research. Like many other physicians, obstetricians and gynecologists are on the front lines to treat patients with COVID-19. They are not only working tirelessly to care for such patients, but they also face a variety of psychological effects.

COVID-19大流行对利雅得五家三级医院妇产科医生心理健康的影响——一项调查
截至2019年12月底,中国武汉市报告了一种由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2引起的新型肺炎。随后,这种疾病被称为2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19),并逐渐在全球蔓延[1]。2020年3月11日,世界卫生组织宣布,COVID-19的传播可以被定性为大流行。COVID-19对普通人群和高危亚群体的心理健康有潜在影响。其中一个亚群体是医护人员。Holmes等人[2]将一线医护人员确定为心理健康研究的八个弱势群体之一。像许多其他医生一样,妇产科医生站在治疗COVID-19患者的第一线。他们不仅要不知疲倦地照顾这些病人,还要面对各种各样的心理影响。
