我们的目的是探索学生和工作人员对英国大学校园内试点SARS-CoV-2无症状检测服务（P-ATS）的看法和经验。这是一项混合方法研究，包括在线调查，以及在为期12周的P-ATS课程中点和结束时对访谈和焦点小组进行的定性数据进行专题分析。99名学生（84.8%为女性，70%为一年级学生，93.9%为P-ATS参与者）完成了在线调查，41人参加了访谈或焦点小组，包括31名学生（21名一年级学生，10名大四学生）和10名教职员工。所有类型的检测和后勤工作（病毒：拭子、唾液；抗体：手指刺）都是高度可接受的，94.9%的人会再次参加。报告的每周病毒检测依从性很高（92.4%完成≥6次检测；70.8%提交了全部10份拭子；89.2%完成了≥1份唾液样本），76.9%提交了≥3份血液样本。学生们接受了“维护校园安全”、“为国家防控新冠肺炎贡献力量”和“保护他人”的测试。根据广泛性焦虑障碍量表（GAD-7）测量，总共有31.3%的患者有高度焦虑（第一年为27.1%）。焦虑程度较低、对大学围绕P-ATS的交流更满意的学生更有可能坚持进行病毒和抗体测试。坚持检测的人数增加与自我和他人感染COVID-19的感知风险增加有关。定性研究结果揭示了5个主题和13个副主题：“对COVID-19的情绪反应”、“COVID-19期间的大学生活”、“对参加考试的影响”、“测试身体和后勤因素”和“测试对心理健康的影响”。无症状COVID-19检测（SARS-CoV-2病毒/抗体）在大学校园环境中被学生和工作人员高度接受。明确的沟通和减少焦虑的策略可能对测试的接受和坚持很重要。需要制定战略，促进社会联系，减轻COVID-19和自我隔离对心理健康的影响。
We aimed to explore student and staff perceptions and experiences of a pilot SARS-CoV-2 asymptomatic testing service (P-ATS) in a UK university campus setting. This was a mixed-method study comprised of an online survey, and thematic analysis of qualitative data from interviews and focus groups conducted at the mid-point and end of the 12-week P-ATS programme. Ninety-nine students (84.8% female, 70% first year; 93.9% P-ATS participants) completed an online survey, 41 individuals attended interviews or focus groups, including 31 students (21 first year; 10 final year) and 10 staff. All types of testing and logistics were highly acceptable (virus: swab, saliva; antibody: finger prick) and 94.9% would participate again. Reported adherence to weekly virus testing was high (92.4% completed ≥6 tests; 70.8% submitted all 10 swabs; 89.2% completed ≥1 saliva sample) and 76.9% submitted ≥3 blood samples. Students tested to “keep campus safe”, “contribute to national efforts to control COVID-19”, and “protect others”. In total, 31.3% had high anxiety as measured by the Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7) (27.1% of first year). Students with lower levels of anxiety and greater satisfaction with university communications around P-ATS were more likely to adhere to virus and antibody tests. Increased adherence to testing was associated with higher perceived risk of COVID-19 to self and others. Qualitative findings revealed 5 themes and 13 sub-themes: “emotional responses to COVID-19”, “university life during COVID-19”, “influences on testing participation”, “testing physical and logistical factors” and “testing effects on mental wellbeing”. Asymptomatic COVID-19 testing (SARS-CoV-2 virus/antibodies) is highly acceptable to students and staff in a university campus setting. Clear communications and strategies to reduce anxiety are likely to be important for testing uptake and adherence. Strategies are needed to facilitate social connections and mitigate the mental health impacts of COVID-19 and self-isolation.
