Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has notably changed the working and community environment for health-care workers (HCWs) leading to burnout and feeling of being stigmatized by the community due to their work. This study aims at assessing the prevalence of burnout, perceived social stigma, and their demographic and work-related predictors. Methods: A cross-sectional study using Oldenburg Burnout Inventory and perceived stigma scale was carried out among 348 HCWs in COVID-19 designated hospital at Ahmedabad about 6 months after the onset of the outbreak in September 2020. The prevalence of burnout was assessed in two dimensions: disengagement and exhaustion. Severity of each was measured on low, moderate, and high levels. Results: Total 348 HCWs participated in study with a mean age of 28.05 ± 6.75 years. Two hundred and sixty-five (76.15%) HCWs experienced burnout and 200 (57.47%) high levels of perceived stigma. The level of burnout was measured on three severities. Factors which predict high burnout are female gender, lower education, unmarried status, living in a nuclear family, and high perceived stigma. Work characteristics such as duty hours, days of working, monthly income, and work experience does not predict burnout. Intern doctors had high burnout (87.25%, χ2 = 28.067, P < 0.001) while nurses had high perceived stigma (70.97%, χ2 = 14.307, P < 0.05). Perceived stigma is positively correlated with burnout (r = 0.26, P < 0.001) with its both components, disengagement (r = 0.19, P < 0.001) and exhaustion (r = 0.30, P < 0.001). Conclusion: Burnout and stigmatization are prevalent among HCWs. Psychological interventions needed to reduce their burden and improve quality care during pandemic.
简介:2019冠状病毒病(新冠肺炎)大流行显著改变了医护人员(HCW)的工作和社区环境,导致他们精疲力竭,并因工作而感到被社区污名化。本研究旨在评估倦怠的患病率、感知的社会污名及其人口统计学和工作相关预测因素。方法:在2020年9月疫情爆发约6个月后,对艾哈迈达巴德新冠肺炎指定医院的348名HCW进行了一项使用Oldenburg燃尽量表和感知耻辱量表的横断面研究。倦怠的发生率从两个维度进行评估:脱离和疲惫。每种疾病的严重程度分别在低、中、高水平上进行测量。结果:共有348名HCW参加了研究,平均年龄为28.05±6.75岁。265名(76.15%)HCW经历了倦怠和200名(57.47%)高水平的耻辱感。职业倦怠的程度是通过三种严重程度来衡量的。预测高倦怠的因素是女性、受教育程度低、未婚、生活在核心家庭和高耻辱感。工作特征,如工作时间、工作天数、月收入和工作经历,并不能预测倦怠。实习医生有较高的倦怠感(87.25%,χ2=28.067,P<0.001),护士有较高的耻辱感(70.97%,χ2=14.307,P<0.05)。耻辱感与倦怠感呈正相关(r=0.26,P<0.01),包括倦怠感、脱离感(r=0.19,P<001)和疲惫感(r<0.30,P>0.001)。在疫情期间,需要心理干预来减轻他们的负担并提高护理质量。

Introduction: The psychological impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on health-care workers (HWs) are undeniable, especially that knowledge on the disease is limited, and the credibility of some existing sources of information is questionable. We aimed to assess the level of anxiety and trust in information resources among Iranians' HWs. Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted on 1199 HWs between March and April 2020 in Iran. Data on demographic variables, sources of information about the COVID-19, and the trust level to them were collected using online self-administered questionnaires. The anxiety severity level was assessed using the Zung self-rating anxiety scale. Data were analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression models. Results: The mean age of participants was 32.5 ± 8.79, and 65.7% (n = 763) were male. 30.4% (95% confidence interval (CI) (CI: 27.8%–33.1%) of HWs had mild to moderate, and 21.3% (95% CI: 18.9%–23.7%) had severe and extremely severe levels of anxiety. TV (83.7%) and social media networks (58.2%) were the most frequent information sources. The lowest trust level and highest anxiety levels, and in contrast, the highest trust level and lowest anxiety levels were observed among social media users and TV viewers, respectively. The results of the multiple linear analysis showed that less work experience (P = 0.003), master's degree or above (P = 0.006), being divorced or widowed (P < 0.001), higher levels of exposure to COVID-19 patients (P < 0.05), having a history of mental illness (P < 0.001), and having underlying medical conditions (P < 0.001) were associated with higher anxiety levels. Conclusion: The study results revealed that the anxiety level among the HWs is relatively significant, and the trust level in social media networks was the lowest. Further psychological assessments and more investigations regarding the reasons for the reduction of trust and the development of the appropriate approaches to improve it are required.
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)对卫生保健工作者(HWs)的心理影响是不可否认的,特别是对该疾病的了解有限,一些现有信息来源的可信度值得怀疑。我们的目的是评估伊朗hw对信息资源的焦虑程度和信任程度。方法:2020年3月至4月对伊朗1199名卫生保健工作者进行了基于网络的横断面调查。通过在线自我调查问卷收集了人口统计变量、COVID-19信息来源以及对这些变量的信任程度的数据。采用Zung焦虑自评量表评估焦虑严重程度。数据分析采用简单和多元线性回归模型。结果:参与者平均年龄为32.5±8.79岁,男性占65.7% (n = 763)。30.4%(95%可信区间(CI) (CI: 27.8% ~ 33.1%)的hw有轻度至中度焦虑,21.3% (95% CI: 18.9% ~ 23.7%)有重度和极重度焦虑。电视(83.7%)和社交媒体网络(58.2%)是最常见的信息来源。信任水平最低,焦虑水平最高,而信任水平最高的是社交媒体用户,焦虑水平最低的是电视观众。多元线性分析结果显示,工作经验较少(P = 0.003)、硕士及以上学历(P = 0.006)、离婚或丧偶(P < 0.001)、接触COVID-19患者较多(P < 0.05)、有精神病史(P < 0.001)、有基础疾病(P < 0.001)与较高的焦虑水平相关。结论:研究结果显示,卫生保健工作者的焦虑水平相对显著,对社交媒体网络的信任水平最低。需要对信任减少的原因进行进一步的心理评估和更多的调查,并制定改善信任的适当办法。

Introduction: Sleep is one of the main occupations defined in the occupational therapy (OT) Practice Framework-4. Methods: A survey link was sent to registered OT practitioners in Florida (N = 14,978) in September 2019 through E-mail addresses obtained from the Florida Department of Health website. A convenience sample of 213 OT practitioners responded; the majority were female (87%), with 56% reporting over 10 years of experience treating patients with neurological disorders. The person-environment-occupation-performance (PEOP) OT process provided the guiding framework for the proposed model. Spearman's rho correlation coefficients determined the correlations between the variables of interest. Regression coefficients attained through hierarchical ordinal logistic regression estimated the log odds between the variables. Results: Therapists who wrote more sleep-oriented goals were predicted to use a greater variety of sleep-related assessments (odds ratio [OR] = 1.256; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.171–1.347). Furthermore, a greater repertoire of sleep interventions was predicted when more types of sleep assessments were utilized (OR = 2.134 (95% CI = 1.750–2.602); more clients expressed sleep-related concerns to the OT practitioners (OR = 1.207; 95% CI = 1.044–1.395); and when the OT practitioners worked in a greater number of clinical settings (OR = 1.308; 95% CI = 1.113–1.539). Conclusion: The findings confirmed that the PEOP model might guide the OT service process when addressing sleep-related problems in neurorehabilitation. However, variations between settings and environmental facilitators/barriers may also play a role in sleep-related interventions.
引言:睡眠是职业治疗(OT)实践框架中定义的主要职业之一。方法:通过从佛罗里达州卫生部网站获取的电子邮件地址,于2019年9月向佛罗里达州注册的OT医生(N = 14,978)发送调查链接。213名门诊医生的便利样本作出了回应;大多数是女性(87%),56%报告有超过10年治疗神经系统疾病患者的经验。人-环境-职业-绩效(PEOP) OT过程为该模型提供了指导框架。斯皮尔曼相关系数决定了感兴趣的变量之间的相关性。通过层次有序逻辑回归获得的回归系数估计变量之间的对数赔率。结果:撰写更多睡眠导向目标的治疗师预计会使用更多种类的睡眠相关评估(优势比[OR] = 1.256;95%置信区间[CI] = 1.171-1.347)。此外,当使用更多类型的睡眠评估时,预测更多的睡眠干预措施(OR = 2.134 (95% CI = 1.750-2.602);更多的病人向门诊医生表达了与睡眠有关的担忧(OR = 1.207;95% ci = 1.044-1.395);当门诊医生在更多的临床环境中工作时(OR = 1.308;95% ci = 1.113-1.539)。结论:本研究结果证实了PEOP模型对神经康复患者睡眠相关问题的治疗具有一定的指导作用。然而,环境和环境促进因素/障碍之间的差异也可能在睡眠相关干预中发挥作用。

Introduction: There is a lack of research in investigating functional disability (FD) among middle-aged populations. The aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence and correlates of FD among middle-aged persons in India. Methods: The national cross-sectional sample consisted of 34,098 persons (45–59 years) from the Longitudinal Aging Study in India Wave 1 in 2017–2018. FD was assessed with difficulties of six items in activities in daily living (ADL) and seven items in instrumental activities in daily living (IADL). Results: The prevalence of 0 ADL/IADL was 70.7%, 1 ADL/IADL 10.4%, and 2 or more ADL/IADL 18.9%. The overall prevalence of ADL difficulty was 9.9% and IADL difficulty 26.5%. In the adjusted logistic regression analysis, older age (55–59 years) (adjusted relative risk ratio: 1.45, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23–1.70), having no education (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 1.79, 95% CI: 1.54–2.07), poor or fair self-rated health status (AOR: 2.06, 95% CI: 1.81–2.34), 2 or more chronic conditions (AOR: 1.67, 95% CI: 1.39–2.01), insomnia symptoms (AOR: 1.86, 95% CI: 1.57–2.20), major depressive disorder (AOR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.39–1.99), physical pain (AOR: 1.42, 95% CI: 1.22–1.65), poor distant vision (AOR: 1.37, 95% CI: 1.17–1.62), hearing or ear problem (AOR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.10–1.74), falls (AOR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.15–1.55), and poor word recall (AOR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.30–1.97) were positively associated with 2 or more ADL/IADL. In addition, male sex (AOR: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.31–0.45), and urban residence (AOR: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.58-0.84) were negatively associated with 2 or more ADL/IADL. Conclusion: Almost two in five middle-aged adults in India had 2 or more ADL/IADL and several associated factors were identified.

Introduction: Social distancing is a public health tool that seeks to reduce opportunities for an infectious agent to spread among individuals. The current study aimed at investigating the social-distancing compliance among pedestrians in Ahvaz city, South-west Iran during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Ahvaz, South-west Iran, from 2 to August 11, 2020. The data collection was performed based on observation of passers-by in the streets. Chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Chi-square for trend, and logistic regression were used for the data analysis. Results: The overall compliance rate of social distancing was 16.3%. There was a statistically significant difference between age groups and social distancing (P < 0.001), but this relationship was not seen in gender (P = 0.12). The compliance rate of social distancing was significantly higher during morning hours than evening hours (P < 0.001). A significant inverse association was founded between the number of observed group members and the compliance rate of social distancing so that the odds of social distancing compliance among two members groups were 59% higher than the group of 6 and more members (odds ratio = 1.59; 95% confidence interval, 1.47–1.72; P = 0.003). Conclusion: We found that the overall compliance rate of social distancing among the participants was very low and inefficient. This can make disease control difficult and leads the city to a critical situation in terms of coronavirus outbreaks. The findings can help health policymakers and health workers to plan and conduct preventive interventions.
社交距离是一种公共卫生工具,旨在减少传染病在个体之间传播的机会。本研究旨在调查2019冠状病毒病大流行期间伊朗西南部阿瓦士市行人遵守社交距离的情况。方法:本横断面研究于2020年8月2日至8月11日在伊朗西南部的阿瓦士进行。数据收集是基于对街道上行人的观察。数据分析采用卡方检验、Fisher精确检验、趋势卡方检验和逻辑回归。结果:保持社交距离的总体依从率为16.3%。年龄层与社交距离之间存在统计学差异(P < 0.001),但性别之间没有这种关系(P = 0.12)。保持社交距离的依从率在早上时段明显高于晚上时段(P < 0.001)。观察小组人数与社交距离遵守率呈显著负相关,2个小组遵守社交距离的几率比6人及以上小组高59%(比值比= 1.59;95%置信区间为1.47-1.72;P = 0.003)。结论:我们发现参与者对社交距离的总体遵守率很低,效率很低。这可能会使疾病控制变得困难,并导致该市在冠状病毒爆发方面处于危急状态。这些发现可以帮助卫生政策制定者和卫生工作者规划和实施预防性干预措施。

Introduction: Readmission after discharge is recognized as one of the major indicators of the quality of care provided in hospitals. Recurrent hospitalization is common among patients in psychiatric wards and is caused by a myriad of factors. The present study aimed to identify the causes of readmission and associated risk factors in patients with a history of recurrent hospitalization in 22 Bahman Psychiatric Hospital in Qazvin, Iran. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was performed by the census method in Psychiatric Hospital in Qazvin, Iran, on all the patients who were admitted at least three times from 2015 to 2019. The following data were extracted from patient profiles using certain checklists: age, gender, educational level, residential location, occupation, marital status, clinical diagnosis, number of hospitalizations, duration of disease, intervals between admissions, substance abuse, regular outpatient visits, and regular use of medications. Data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 22). A P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The current study was conducted on 182 patients with a history of readmission who were selected by the census method. The majority of subjects (n = 131) were male, and their mean age score was reported as 39.96 ± 10.41 years. Furthermore, the most frequent clinical diagnosis based on which the patients were admitted included bipolar I disorder (manic phase) (29.7%) and schizophrenia (22.2%), respectively. The number of hospitalizations was significantly correlated with education level (0.013), marital status (0.012), residential location (0.049), intervals between admissions (0.009), follow-up pattern (<0.001), and treatment pattern (<0.001). Conclusion: As evidenced by the results of the present study, clinical diagnosis, education level, marital status, residential location, intervals between admissions, treatment patterns, and follow-up patterns of patients were effective in the frequency of recurrent hospitalization in patients with mental disorders.
出院后再入院被认为是医院提供护理质量的主要指标之一。反复住院在精神科病房的病人中是常见的,是由无数的因素引起的。本研究旨在确定在伊朗Qazvin的22 Bahman精神病院有反复住院史的患者再入院的原因和相关危险因素。方法:采用人口普查方法,对2015 - 2019年在伊朗加兹温精神病院住院3次以上的患者进行回顾性横断面研究。以下数据是通过某些核对表从患者档案中提取的:年龄、性别、教育水平、居住地点、职业、婚姻状况、临床诊断、住院次数、疾病持续时间、入院间隔、药物滥用、定期门诊就诊和定期用药。数据分析采用SPSS (version 22)软件。P < 0.05为差异有统计学意义。结果:本研究采用普查方法选取182例有再入院史的患者。131例患者为男性,平均年龄为39.96±10.41岁。此外,患者入院时最常见的临床诊断包括双相I型障碍(躁狂期)(29.7%)和精神分裂症(22.2%)。住院次数与文化程度(0.013)、婚姻状况(0.012)、居住地(0.049)、入院间隔(0.009)、随访方式(<0.001)、治疗方式(<0.001)显著相关。结论:本研究结果表明,患者的临床诊断、文化程度、婚姻状况、居住地点、入院间隔、治疗方式、随访方式对精神障碍患者的再住院频率有影响。

Introduction: Internet pornography use is a sexual behavior, and it comprises a variety of online sexual activities, including watching pornography, online pornography exchange, and engaging in sex chats. Due to rise in Internet access and technologies, online pornography and other type of repetitive behaviors have increased. The current study was aimed to estimate the prevalence of problematic pornography consumption among undergraduate medical students. Methods: A multicenter, cross-sectional study was carried out at seven different centers of Gujarat from October 2020 to December 2020. Online structured questionnaire in two different parts: (1) Demographic details and usage pattern of pornography among students, (2) Problematic Pornography Consumption Scale was prepared and shared with all undergraduate students through designated faculty. Logistic regression analysis was used for problematic pornography consumption (as dependent variable) and other categorical variables as independent variables. Results: A total of 1926 participants completed the study. The prevalence of problematic pornography consumption among participants was 14.6% (95% confidence interval 12.4–16.1). Male participants and participants who are in a romantic relationship have higher problematic pornography consumption. Participants' gender (odds ratio OR = 3.562), relationship status (OR = 1.636), weekly (OR = 1.749), and daily (OR = 1.733) pornography consumption emerged as statistically significant with the problematic pornography consumption from the logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: Problematic pornography consumption is more prevalent among male under graduate medical students than females. It is important to educate the students about the potential harmful adverse effects of pornography and to develop a positive attitude toward sex.
简介:网络色情使用是一种性行为,包括观看色情、网络色情交流、性聊天等多种网络性活动。由于互联网接入和技术的发展,网络色情和其他类型的重复行为也有所增加。目前的研究旨在估计医学本科生中问题色情消费的流行率。方法:2020年10月至2020年12月,在古吉拉特邦的七个不同中心进行了一项多中心横断面研究。分为两个不同部分的在线结构化问卷:(1)学生色情的人口统计细节和使用模式;(2)编制有问题的色情消费量表,并通过指定的教师与所有本科生分享。Logistic回归分析用于问题色情消费(作为因变量)和其他分类变量作为自变量。结果:共有1926名参与者完成了这项研究。参与者中问题色情消费的患病率为14.6%(95%置信区间12.4-16.1)。男性参与者和处于恋爱关系中的参与者的问题色情消费较高。从逻辑回归分析来看,参与者的性别(比值比OR=3.562)、关系状态(OR=1.636)、每周(OR=1.749)和每日(OR=1.733)色情消费与有问题的色情消费具有统计学意义。结论:有问题的色情消费在医学研究生中男性比女性更普遍。重要的是教育学生了解色情的潜在有害副作用,并培养积极的性态度。

Introduction: People with traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been found to have significant cognitive challenges which negatively impact their psychosocial life. This calls for efficient supportive systems and coping mechanisms to enable them to function in the society. This study, therefore, examined the (1) supportive systems that affect people with TBI and (2) essential coping mechanisms for psychosocial activities among people with TBI. Methods: A total of forty participants with a mean age of 35.30 (standard deviation = 11.90) years, mostly males (70%) and married (55%) were recruited for this cross-sectional study. They completed measures on TBI severity, coping strategies, social support, religious coping activities, and psychosocial activities. Results: There were significant interrelationships between coping strategies, social support, religious coping activities, psychosocial activities, and severity of TBI. Coping strategies, religious coping, and psychosocial activities were the supportive systems that affect people with TBI. Coping strategies was the only factor that affects the psychosocial activities of people with TBI. Conclusion: Based on these findings, different supportive systems may be needed for different functional abilities of people with TBI. Hence, clinicians may have to individualize assessment in order to offer bespoke support systems needed for improvement.
引言:人们发现,创伤性脑损伤(TBI)患者存在严重的认知挑战,这对他们的心理社会生活产生了负面影响。这就需要有效的支持系统和应对机制,使他们能够在社会中发挥作用。因此,本研究考察了(1)影响TBI患者的支持系统和(2)TBI患者心理社会活动的基本应对机制。方法:本横断面研究共招募了40名参与者,平均年龄为35.30岁(标准差=11.90),其中大部分为男性(70%)和已婚(55%)。他们完成了关于TBI严重程度、应对策略、社会支持、宗教应对活动和心理社会活动的测量。结果:应对策略、社会支持、宗教应对活动、心理社会活动和TBI的严重程度之间存在显著的相互关系。应对策略、宗教应对和心理社会活动是影响TBI患者的支持系统。应对策略是影响TBI患者心理社会活动的唯一因素。结论:基于这些发现,TBI患者的不同功能能力可能需要不同的支持系统。因此,临床医生可能必须进行个性化评估,以便提供改进所需的定制支持系统。

Introduction: The spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a new public health concern that has shaken the whole world and possesses a challenge to the mental health of the public. This study aimed to investigate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the perceived stress, anxiety level, and mental health of medical students as well as to explore the knowledge of COVID-19 among Indian medical students. Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted among the undergraduate medical interns and postgraduate medical residents using the online data collection form. The form consisted of five domains (sociodemographic details, knowledge assessment, perceived stress assessment, generalized anxiety disorder-7 assessment, and assessment of the perceived level of change in social habits and personal hygiene related to COVID-19 outbreak). The statistical analysis of the responses was carried out by the Mann-Whitney U-test and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: Two hundred participants filled the distributed survey, 61% (n = 122) were males. The mean knowledge score of 200 participants was 4.27 ± 1.45. The participant had a mean perceived stress score of 18.35 ± 6.28, and the females had a significantly higher perceived stress level than the male (P = 0.037). About 10% (n = 20) of the participants reported high perceived stress level (27-40), and moderate stress (score 14-26) was reported in 69% (n = 138) of the participants. However, only 21% (n = 42) of the participants reported low stress (0-13). While only moderate anxiety (score 10-14) was reported in 16% (n = 32) of the participant and 4% (n = 8) of the participants reported severe anxiety (score >14). Conclusion: There is an increased stress and anxiety in Indian medical students due to overburdened responsibilities and lack of adequate resources. © 2021 Medknow. All rights reserved.
