“… Management of icu nursing teams during the covid-19 pandemic. Gestión de los equipos de enfermería de uci durante la pandemia covid-19 Raurell-Torredà, 2020 Enfermeria intensiva The disproportion in the number of patients seen during the pandemic and the small number of nurses is one of the main conditions that mark the exhaustion of these professionals. Thus, a new dynamic must be carried out to equalize the number of patients to the number of nurses, as well as the hiring of physiotherapists, specialized in intensive care, to reduce the number of tasks performed by nurses.…”

“…In the meantime, a criticism mentioned by the Spanish Society of Intensive Nursing and Coronary Units concerns the lack of recognition of this group's specialty in intensive care and the negligence on the part of the services in hiring a sufficient number of physiotherapists. It has, generally, one physiotherapist per unit, who also suffers from work overload ( Raurell-Torredà, 2020 ; Raurell-Torredà et al, 2020 ).…”

“…It is asked to hospitals, in a general way, to provide adequate environments so the teams can rest, especially because they are trying to maintain family isolation and do not have other places to rest ( Chen et al, 2020 ; Walton et al, 2020 ; Rana et al, 2020 ; Pappa et al, 2020 ; Zaka et al, 2020 ). Besides this, it is suggested to redefine the equivalence between patients and nurses, seeking proportions such as 1: 1 or 1: 2, respectively, as well as the stimulus for hiring physiotherapists, specialized in intensive care ( Raurell-Torredà, 2020 ).…”

Introduction During the COVID-19 pandemic period, the structure of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) activities changed fast. It was observed that the mental and physical health of the frontline workers reached levels of extreme clinical and psychological concern. Objective Understand the impact that COVID-19 is having on the front-line clinical team in the ICU environment, as well as reveal what proposals are being made to mitigate the clinical and psychological impacts that this group experiences. Method A systematic review was made following the PRISMA protocol (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis). We included any type of study on health workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, with results about their mental health. We were, therefore, interested in quantitative studies examining the prevalence of problems and effects of interventions, as well as qualitative studies examining experiences. We had no restrictions related to study design, methodological quality or language. Results Twenty-one studies reported on the urgent need for interventions to prevent or reduce mental health problems caused by COVID-19 among health professionals in ICU. Eleven studies demonstrated possibilities for interventions involving organizational adjustments in the ICU, particularly linked to emotional conflicts in the fight against COVID-19. Conclusion The disproportion between the need for technological supplies of intensive care medicine and their scarcity promotes, among many factors, high rates of psychological distress. Anxiety, irritability, insomnia, fear and anguish were observed during the pandemic, probably related to extremely high workloads and the lack of personal protective equipment.

“…Se tuvieron que habilitar en formato exprés nuevas UCI, con nuevas enfermeras sin formación en cuidados críticos para atender a pacientes con diagnóstico de COVID-19, la mayoría de ellos extremadamente graves. Además, tal y como sugiere Raurell-Torredà “eso provocó que el concepto de equipo tuviera que cambiar y superar cualquiera de las anteriores realidades” 1 .…”

“…New express ICUs had to be created with new nurses who had had no training in critical care to attend to the patients diagnosed with COVID-19, most of whom were extremely seriously ill. Also, as suggested by Raurell-Torredà “this meant that the concept of team had to change and supplant any previous realities”. 1 …”
