          Abstract

          Resumen El propósito principal es reflexionar sobre el trabajo del docente en la pandemia de COVID-19 y sus reflejos en la salud mental. La discusión se basó en la educación a distancia, ponderando las reflexiones que ha brindado la literatura científica acerca del COVID-19 hasta el momento y sus posibles repercusiones en la salud de los docentes de los diferentes niveles de formación disponibles.Los docentes se hallan muy expuestos a los riesgos de contraer enfermedades profesionales durante la pandemia de COVID-19, hecho este que debe ser controlado mediante la realización de investigaciones desarrolladas con estos profesionales, en forma directa, considerando los efectos de las diferentes fases de aislamiento y distancia social, así como también los diferentes niveles de formación y desempeño de esos docentes. El actual escenario de la educación a distancia puede operar como desencadenante y generar la afectación de la salud mental, razón por la cual, se requiere un seguimiento directo y crítico por parte de la literatura en el campo de la salud mental del trabajador.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract The main purpose of this study is to reflect on the work of professors in the pandemic of COVID-19 and on the effects on their mental health.This discussion was based on reflections provided by the scientific literature on COVID-19 so far and its possible repercussions for the health of professors at the different levels of training available. Professors are highly exposed to the risks of occupational illness during the COVID-19 pandemic, a fact that should be monitored by conducting research developed directly with these professionals, also taking into account the effects of the different phases of isolation and social distance experienced, as well as the different levels of training and performance of these professors.The current scenario can be a trigger for this problem, which must be followed in a direct and critical way by the literature in the field of the worker's mental health.

          The Effects of Social Support on Sleep Quality of Medical Staff Treating Patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in January and February 2020 in China

          Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan City, China. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a multivariate analysis method to determine the structural relationship between measured variables. This observational study aimed to use SEM to determine the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 in January and February 2020 in Wuhan, China. Material/Methods A one-month cross-sectional observational study included 180 medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 infection. Levels of anxiety, self-efficacy, stress, sleep quality, and social support were measured using the and the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Stanford Acute Stress Reaction (SASR) questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), respectively. Pearson’s correlation analysis and SEM identified the interactions between these factors. Results Levels of social support for medical staff were significantly associated with self-efficacy and sleep quality and negatively associated with the degree of anxiety and stress. Levels of anxiety were significantly associated with the levels of stress, which negatively impacted self-efficacy and sleep quality. Anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy were mediating variables associated with social support and sleep quality. Conclusions SEM showed that medical staff in China who were treating patients with COVID-19 infection during January and February 2020 had levels of anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy that were dependent on sleep quality and social support.

            Using Technology to Maintain the Education of Residents During the COVID-19 Pandemic

            Background The COVID-19 pandemic presents a unique challenge to surgical residency programs. Due to the restrictions recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other organizations, the educational landscape for surgical residents is rapidly changing. In addition, the time course of these changes is undefined. Methods We attempt to define the scope of the problem of maintaining surgical resident education while maintaining the safety of residents, educators, and patients. Within the basic framework of limiting in-person gatherings, postponing or canceling elective operations in hospitals, and limiting rotations between sites, we propose innovative solutions to maintain rigorous education. Results We propose several innovative solutions including the flipped classroom model, online practice questions, teleconferencing in place of in-person lectures, involving residents in telemedicine clinics, procedural simulation, and the facilitated use of surgical videos. Although there is no substitute for hands-on learning through operative experience and direct patient care, these may be ways to mitigate the loss of learning exposure during this time. Conclusions These innovative solutions utilizing technology may help to bridge the educational gap for surgical residents during this unprecedented circumstance. The support of national organizations may be beneficial in maintaining rigorous surgical education.

              Resumo Considerando-se a situação atual mundial, marcada por importantes crises na saúde pública e, mais recentemente, a pandemia causada pela COVID-19, o presente artigo buscou reunir informações e achados de pesquisa a respeito do impacto de tais crises na saúde mental. O texto traz conceitos relacionados à problemática do novo coronavírus e analisa consequências de medidas adotadas para lidar com situações desse tipo, tais como distanciamento social, quarentena e isolamento, ao longo de três períodos distintos: pré-crise, intracrise e pós-crise. O artigo enfoca as repercussões observadas na saúde mental da população, refletindo acerca dos desfechos favoráveis e desfavoráveis dentro do processo de crise. Por fim, são apresentadas questões relacionadas à emergência do cuidado em saúde mental, tanto aquele prestado pela Psicologia, como aquele que pode ser desenvolvido pelos demais profissionais de saúde, de modo a minimizar os impactos negativos da crise e atuar de modo preventivo.
