Abstract
Importance: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant psychological distress among healthcare workers worldwide.
Objective: To systematically review and meta-analyze the prevalence of mental health problems among healthcare workers in China during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Data Sources: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases were searched from inception to December 31, 2020.
Study Selection: Observational studies reporting the prevalence of anxiety, depression, insomnia, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among healthcare workers in China during the COVID-19 pandemic were included.
Data Extraction and Synthesis: Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed study quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist. Random-effects models were used to pool prevalence estimates.
Main Outcomes and Measures: Pooled prevalence rates of anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTSD among healthcare workers in China.
Results: A total of 45 studies involving 58,921 healthcare workers were included. The pooled prevalence rates were 26.3% (95% CI, 22.8%-30.1%) for anxiety, 27.5% (95% CI, 23.9%-31.4%) for depression, 34.2% (95% CI, 29.8%-38.9%) for insomnia, and 14.8% (95% CI, 11.2%-19.3%) for PTSD.
Conclusions and Relevance: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial impact on the mental health of healthcare workers in China. Targeted interventions are urgently needed to support their psychological well-being.
