目的：医护人员，尤其是在为2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）患者提供护理的部门工作的医护人员，患这种传染病的风险高于在其他部门工作的医护人员。本研究的目的是评估医护人员在COVID-19爆发期间的心理状况，这加剧了利比亚现有的内战相关问题。方法：进行了一项关于抑郁症状，焦虑症状和虐待的多中心横断面调查。采用医院焦虑抑郁量表（HADS）对15所医院的745名医务人员进行调查。将抑郁和焦虑症状与参与者的基本特征进行比较，以确定相关性。共有420名（56.3%）参与者有抑郁症状，而348名（46.7%）有焦虑症状。年龄，居住状况，部门，污名化，生活在冲突地区与抑郁症状显着相关。年龄、部门、工作年限、每周工作时间、国内流离失所、污名化、生活在冲突地区和言语虐待与焦虑症状显著相关。结论：我们的研究提出了关于在COVID-19爆发和利比亚内战期间提供护理的医生中的抑郁，焦虑症状和虐待的重要发现。它还证明了与该人群中抑郁和焦虑症状相关的几个因素。
Objective: Healthcare workers, particularly those working in departments that provide care for patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are at a higher risk of this contagious disease than those who work in other departments. The aim of this study was to assess the psychological status of healthcare workers during the COVID-19 outbreak, which has compounded Libya's existing civil war-related problems.Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional survey on depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and abuse was conducted. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to measure the prevalence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among healthcare workers.Results: The data of 745 eligible healthcare workers from 15 hospitals were analyzed. Depressive and anxiety symptoms were compared to the basic characteristics of the participants to determine the association. A total of 420 (56.3%) participants had depressive symptoms, while 348 (46.7%) had anxiety symptoms. Age, residency status, department, stigmatization, and living in a conflict zone were significantly associated with depressive symptoms. Age, department, years of experience, working hours per week, internal displacement, stigmatization, living in a conflict zone, and verbal abuse were significantly associated with anxiety symptoms. Conclusion: Our study presents important findings regarding depressive, anxiety symptoms, and abuse among physicians providing care during the COVID-19 outbreak and civil war in Libya. It also demonstrates several factors that can be associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms in this population.
