“…On the other hand, post-COVID-19 psychological and psychiatric symptoms have been investigated using numerous standardized questionnaires: the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) [ 90 ] and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) [ 84 ], for anxiety and related symptoms. In detail, Monterrosa-Blanco recommended the use of GAD-7 during the COVID-19 pandemic; it is a widely used screening tool for anxiety with a cut-off score of 10, and it has been standardized in a sample of Colombian general practitioners [ 91 ], while the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) is for depression. The PHQ-9 is a commonly used screening tool for depression with a cut-off of 10 to consider the diagnosis.…”

Long COVID is a clinical syndrome characterized by profound fatigue, neurocognitive difficulties, muscle pain, weakness, and depression, lasting beyond the 3–12 weeks following infection with SARS-CoV-2. Among the symptoms, neurocognitive and psychiatric sequelae, including attention and memory alterations, as well as anxiety and depression symptoms, have become major targets of current healthcare providers given the significant public health impact. In this context, assessment tools play a crucial role in the early screening of cognitive alterations due to Long COVID. Among others, the general cognitive assessment tools, such as the Montreal Cognitive assessment, and more specific ones, including the State Trait Inventory of Cognitive Fatigue and the Digit Span, may be of help in investigating the main neurocognitive alterations. Moreover, appropriate neurorehabilitative programs using specific methods and techniques (conventional and/or advanced) through a multidisciplinary team are required to treat COVID-19-related cognitive and behavioral abnormalities. In this narrative review, we sought to describe the main neurocognitive and psychiatric symptoms as well as to provide some clinical advice for the assessment and treatment of Long COVID.

“…These scales are widely used in clinical trials and have excellent psychometric properties (Kroenke et al, 2019). Previous research found high internal consistency (α ≥ .82) and strong convergent validity of the GAD-7 in Mexican (Gutiérrez-Velilla et al, 2022) and Colombian (Monterrosa-Blanco et al, 2021) samples. Likewise, the PHQ-9 has shown high internal consistency (α ≥ .80) and strong convergent validity in Mexican (Arrieta et al, 2017) and Colombian (Miranda & Scoppetta, 2018) samples.…”

Šių dienų COVID-19 pandemijos problema paskatino sveikatos priežiūros specialistus iš pagrindų pakeisti savo darbo įpročius, mokytis ir iš naujo prisitaikyti prie pasikeitusių darbo sąlygų. Pokyčiai ypač palietė pirminės sveikatos priežiūros specialistus ir jų psichoemocinę būklę. Tyrimo tikslas – išanalizuoti mokslinę literatūrą apie šeimos gydytojų darbo iššūkius COVID-19 pandemijos metu. Metodika. Atlikta elektroninė literatūros analizė ClinicalKey ir PubMed duomenų bazėse anglų kalba, naudojant šias raktažodžių kombinacijas: family medicine (or) family doctor (or) general practitioner, COVID-19, mental health, telemedicine. Rezultatai. Remiantis išanalizuotais moksliniais straipsniais, nustatyta, kad telemedicinos naudojimas pirminės sveikatos priežiūros specialistų darbe COVID-19 pandemijos metu palengvino šeimos gydytojų darbą. Dėl COVID-19 pandemijos atsiradę šeimos gydytojo darbo pokyčiai padarė žalą psichoemocinei sveikatai. Išvados. Pasikeitęs pacientų konsultavimo būdas pandemijos metu palengvino šeimos medicinos gydytojų darbą. Kito pirminės sveikatos priežiūros specialistų psichoemocinė būklė – dažniausiai pasitaikė nerimo, miego, potrauminio streso sutrikimai, depresija.
