A panel of six U.K. healthcare experts also shared their experiences with the researchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ucl.ac.uk\/psychiatry\/people\/jo-billings\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Jo Billings<\/a>&nbsp;of University College London, U.K., who was not involved in the research, explained to&nbsp;<em>Medical News Today<\/em>&nbsp;the value of this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cBy synthesizing findings from across a range of reviews, this study shows that a serious and detrimental impact on mental health is being replicated consistently across numerous studies. This gives us confidence in saying that this negative impact is very real and enduring,\u201d she told us.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the reviews under analysis \u2014 19 of them \u2014 were focused on healthcare workers. Additionally, researchers considered children and adolescents in five studies, COVID-19 patients with preexisting conditions in two studies, and homeless individuals in one study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Billings pointed out, \u201cthe review identified only a small number of other reviews [that] had considered these populations, highlighting that these vulnerable groups warrant more consideration and research.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The systematic review explored the experiences of people from many countries. Scientists included China in all the reviews under study. Two of the reviews were concerned strictly with that country.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twelve of the reviews under study considered the mental health effects of COVID-19 alone. Another 12 investigated a mix of conditions, including COVID-19,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/7543\">SARS<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/262538\">MERS<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/280598\">Ebola<\/a>, influenza A\/H1N1 (swine flu), or influenza A\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/272784\">H7N9<\/a>, known as \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/5556\">avian influenza<\/a>\u201d or \u201cbird flu.\u201d A final review was concerned only with SARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>Healthcare workers<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHealthcare workers,\u201d notes Dr. Uphoff, \u201cmay already have a higher risk of adverse mental health outcomes due to the stressful nature of their work. However, there were some indications that mental health may be further affected as a result of working on the frontline during an infectious disease outbreak.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For example, a year after the SARS outbreak, healthcare workers were six times more likely than others to be experiencing mental health issues. Two years after the crisis, 30% of those most closely exposed to SARS patients still reported significant emotional exhaustion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quarantines were also linked to increased alcohol consumption, acute&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/145855\">stress<\/a>&nbsp;disorder, and PTSD, while&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/9155\">insomnia<\/a>&nbsp;was more common in healthcare workers than in the general population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Billings noted that it is hard to keep track of frontline workers\u2019 mental state during a crisis in a way that is \u201cnot invasive or overly burdensome.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She was also concerned about workers\u2019 willingness to speak up, saying: \u201cStigma about mental ill health is still pervasive in healthcare settings. We need to create a culture in which healthcare workers can openly talk about their own mental health difficulties without this being detrimental to their career.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>Children, adolescents, and those with other conditions<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The researchers found that quarantine and worry about the pandemic had links to a higher risk of \u201cacute stress disorder, adjustment disorder, symptoms of grief, and PTSD\u201d in children and adolescents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a broad range of estimates for the percentage of children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, from 19% to 37%, while 35\u201344% had depression symptoms. Six percent of young people reported symptoms of PTSD, 40% symptoms of psychological distress, and 17% acute stress disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors write that \u201c[c]hildren and adolescents may be at increased risk of experiencing adverse mental health outcomes when experiencing stigma, social change, such as school closures, and changes in household interactions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>College students reported symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, and sleeping disorders.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers also surveyed children with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/147960\">cystic fibrosis<\/a>&nbsp;in a study, reporting lower levels of anxiety about the pandemic than other children experienced. In contrast, their parents reported greater levels of anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Estimates for the prevalence of anxiety among COVID-19 patients with preexisting physical health conditions ranged from 40% to 82%. For depression, it was 50%. There were also indications that existing mental health issues may have worsened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>Input from the six-person panel<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The researchers convened a panel of six hospital or community U.K. healthcare workers for a 2-hour review of the systematic review\u2019s findings and a discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panel emphasized to the researchers the importance of support from coworkers and clear communication in the workplace. Where this was not in place, for example, for healthcare workers working from home, this was reported to be a source of stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr. Uphoff told&nbsp;<em>MNT<\/em>&nbsp;that one of the more surprising and positive findings of their analysis was the prevalence of helpful workplace support. But the areas where healthcare professionals could make improvements were also clear.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat came back in review after review,\u201d said Dr. Uphoff, \u201cwere the things we all hope to find in a workplace: clear communication and guidance from managers, a balanced workload, access to mental health support, and the availability of training and education.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>What comes next<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cWe have identified types of mental health support, which could protect the mental health of healthcare workers in a pandemic,\u201d said Dr. Uphoff. \u201cAlthough research is needed on their effectiveness, we hope governments and organizations will consider implementing some of these measures.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Uphoff also described further research that could be helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe nature of systematic reviews is that they are always running slightly behind \u2014 we found mostly evidence from hospital workers in China,\u201d she notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI would like to conduct another systematic review of mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic with the evidence we have available now, focusing on other groups who may be more vulnerable in terms of their mental health. This includes children and [older adults], key workers outside the hospital, [historically marginalized groups], and people with physical health conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new systematic review highlights the significant mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9354,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[104],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10659","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-resources_mhc"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.8 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
