Abstract
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented stress on healthcare workers worldwide. This study aims to systematically review and meta-analyze the impact of the pandemic on the mental health of healthcare workers in China.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science) for studies published between January 2020 and December 2022. Studies reporting prevalence rates of anxiety, depression, or PTSD among healthcare workers in China were included. Random-effects models were used to pool prevalence estimates.
Results: A total of 45 studies involving 28,500 participants were included. Pooled prevalence rates were 32.5% for anxiety, 28.7% for depression, and 15.3% for PTSD. Frontline workers showed significantly higher rates compared to non-frontline staff.
Conclusion: The mental health burden among healthcare workers in China during the pandemic is substantial. Urgent interventions are needed to support their psychological well-being. Future research should focus on long-term effects and effective coping strategies.
