Objectives: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has spread rapidly, locally and internationally after it started in Hubei province of China in December 2019. During the spread of this infectious disease in the world, health care workers are taking place as the main people in the screening and treatment of the disease. The present study aims to evaluate the relationship between anxiety and depression levels with perceived stress and coping strategies in health care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: In this study, 200 participants were included. Beck Anxiety Inventory (BDI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10) and COPE (Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced) were applied. Results: Mean scores for BDI and BAI were 9.2±8.9 and 8.2±9.2, respectively. BDI scores of 33 (16.5%) of 200 participants were ≥17. 62% of the participants had minimal depression, 21.5% of the participants had mild depression, 13.5 % of the participants had moderate depression, and 3% of the participants had severe depression according to BDI scores. 60.5% of the participants had minimal anxiety, 25.5% of the participants had mild anxiety, 8.5% of the participants had moderate anxiety and 5.5% of the participants had severe anxiety according to BAI scores. BAI and BDI scores of the female participants were statistically higher than the male participants. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between BAI and BDI scores and PSS-10 scores. A statistically significant difference was found in the averages of BAI and BDI, PSS-10 COPE 3 (Focus on and venting of emotions), 7 (Religious coping) and 13 (Acceptance) subscales levels in occupational groups. A statistically significant difference was found in BDI levels in the clinical units during the pandemic. Conclusion: This study indicated that different coping strategies can be used in health care workers regarding anxiety, depression and stress levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. While problem-solving and emotion-focused adaptive coping mechanisms help reduce symptoms, maladaptive and negative coping mechanisms can cause symptoms to exacerbate. Thus, training should be given to developing attitudes of health care workers to cope with stress.
Target: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has shown a rapid spread on a local and international level after it began in the Hubei state of China in December 2019. During the spread of this infectious disease worldwide, health workers have been the main persons in the screening and treatment of the disease. The aim of this study in our hospital is to evaluate the relationship between the methods of dealing with stress and stress detected in health workers during the COVID-19 pandemic process and the levels of anxiety and depression. Method: Two hundred volunteers have been involved in the work. Beck’s Anxiety Scale (BAO), Beck’s Depression Scale (BDO), Detected Stress Scale-10 (ASO) and COPE (Evaluation of Behavioral Attitudes) were applied. Results: The average scores of the BDÖ and BAÖ scales were 9.2±8.9 and 8.2±9.2 respectively. The score of 33 of 200 participants (16.5%) was 17 and above. In 62 percent of participants, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression, low depression and low depression. The results show that 60.5 per cent of participants had minimal anxiety, 25.5 per cent had mild anxiety, 8.5 per cent had medium anxiety and 5.5 per cent had severe anxiety. The women’s participants’ BAE and BDÖ scores were statistically higher than the male participants. A statistically meaningful relationship between BAÖ and BDÖ scores and ASÖ-10 was found in a very positive direction. In the professional groups, a statistically meaningful difference was found in the average levels of BAO and BDO, ASO-10 COPE 3 (Focus on the Problem and Disclosure of Emotions), 7 (Religious Treatment) and 13 (Acceptance). During the pandemic period, statistically significant differences were found in clinical units groups, in BDÖ levels. Results: This study has shown that the COVID-19 pandemic process can be used in health workers with different attitudes of dealing with anxiety, depression and stress levels. Problems solving and emotional-oriented, adaptive methods of dealing help reduce symptoms, while maladaptive and negative methods of dealing can cause symptoms to become even more intense. Therefore, training should be given to health workers to improve their attitudes to cope with stress. (SETB 2020-10-205)
