“…A literature review regarding correlations between psychiatric disorders and COVID-19 showed that the infectious disease may act as a trigger for a new onset of psychiatric dysfunctions and may also aggravate the severity of previously diagnosed mental disorders ( 7 , 28 , 29 ). This may have multiple causes and studies published previously to the pandemic period demonstrate that self-isolation and stress are determining a special form of inflammatory syndrome ( 30 ). Reports from Italy analyzing the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in the database of COVID-19 deaths (where the median age at death was 80 years with an interval of 72-86 years in the analyzed group) presented a frequency of 6.5% of the patients with a psychiatric diagnosis prior to the infection ( 31 , 32 ).…”

“…We found significant differences between studies coming from heterogeneous patient populations and study designs, and scarce data regarding the variation in older vs. younger COVID-19 patients manifesting psychiatric symptomatology in the acute phase. Generally anxiety and depression have a high incidence, also delirium is frequently mentioned as a symptom during acute SARS-CoV-2 infection ( 30 , 32 ).…”

“…After more than 2.5 years of living with the pandemic, there are sufficient data to demonstrate that older individuals are more prone to aggravated infections of SARS-CoV-2, with more severe manifestations of pulmonary disease, heart failure, hepatic and kidney dysfunction, neurocognitive damage; all triggered by the direct viral invasion and cytokine storm with microvascular coagulation among the main pathogenic mechanisms ( 6 , 30 ). These initial alterations continue in the majority of affected senior individuals beyond the acute phase, and we still have to evaluate and develop strategies for long term psychological and neuropsychiatric sequelae of the pandemic.…”

The complex manifestations of COVID-19 include psychiatric symptoms, having multifaceted profiles with varying severity during the acute phase and further during the recovery period. Limited data exist which have analyzed whether there are any age-related differences. A study lot of 89 COVID-19 patients with mild-to-moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection requiring hospitalization for mental issues provided comparative data from two age groups below and above 60 years. The majority of patients had new onset of a mental issue during COVID-19, 24.7% of the total lot being diagnosed with depressive disorder. The senior patient set had a significantly higher prevalence of sleep disorder vs. the younger study group (53.3 vs. 28.8%), depression (33.3 vs. 10.2%) and cognitive impairment (26.7 vs. 8.5%), while patients <60 years of age had a higher prevalence of hallucinations, delirium and bizarre behavior. Psychiatric manifestations are an important part of the symptomatology of COVID-19, sometimes requiring hospitalization. Age-related neuropsychiatric substrate could explain some of these differences between the two study subgroups. Further data are needed to complete the acute and long-term distinctive profiles of COVID-19-related mental illness in older and younger patients.

“…As the subthemes of "spectrum of psychiatric symptoms and disorders," we extracted the following: a new episode of mental breakdown in case of a patient predisposed to major mental disorders, rapid exacerbation in patients with preexisting disorders, occurrence of disorders related to trauma or stress factors (e.g., acute pandemic are as follows: substance use disorder 74,75) , schizophrenia 76) , personality disorders 77) , obsessive compulsive disorder 78) , PTSD 79,80) , anxiety disorders 81) , cognitive disorders (e.g., dementia) 82,83) , panic disorder 84) , bipolar disorder 85) , suicide 86,87) , eating disorders 88) , and sleep disturbance [89][90][91] . For "emotional disturbance," subthemes were extracted based on related emotions.…”

Objectives: The persistence and unpredictability of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and new measures to prevent direct medical intervention (e.g., social distancing and quarantine) have induced various psychological symptoms and disorders that require self-treatment approaches and integrative treatment interventions. To address these issues, the Korean Medicine Mental Health (KMMH) center developed a field manual by reviewing previous literature and preexisting manuals.Methods: The working group of the KMMH center conducted a keyword search in PubMed in June 2021 using “COVID-19” and “SARS-CoV-2”. Review articles were examined using the following filters: “review,” “systematic review,” and “meta-analysis.” We conducted a narrative review of the retrieved articles and extracted content relevant to previous manuals. We then created a treatment algorithm and recommendations by referring to the results of the review.Results: During the initial assessment, subjective symptom severity was measured using a numerical rating scale, and patients were classified as low- or moderate-high risk. Moderate-high-risk patients should be classified as having either a psychiatric emergency or significant psychiatric condition. The developed manual presents appropriate psychological support for each group based on the following dominant symptoms: tension, anxiety-dominant, anger-dominant, depression-dominant, and somatization.Conclusions: We identified the characteristics of mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic and developed a clinical mental health support manual in the field of Korean medicine. When symptoms meet the diagnostic criteria for a mental disorder, doctors of Korean medicine can treat the patients according to the manual for the corresponding disorder.

“…A pandemia ocasionada pelo Covid -19 está sendo caracterizada como um dos maiores problemas de saúde pública internacional das últimas décadas (Coronavirus disease -World Health Organization, 2020). Segundo o Departamento de Psicologia do Reino Unido, o impacto da pandemia na saúde mental ocorre não somente devido às restrições do governo e medo da doença, bem como por uma carga geral sobre os sistemas de saúde, perturbando o acesso das pessoas que necessitam de acompanhamento à saúde mental, demonstrando um déficit de 55% dos cuidados ao paciente pela dificuldade de acesso aos serviços primários (He et al, 2021). Isso demonstra as consequências a longo prazo do Covid-19, por deixar esses serviços sobrecarregados e exacerbar o quadro desses pacientes.…”

Objetivos: Avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde dos pacientes acometidos pelo Covid -19, através do instrumento SF-36. Métodos: Estudo transversal e observacional realizado entre os meses de janeiro e agosto de 2021. A amostra foi constituída por 221 participantes, com base na aplicação do questionário SF-36, avaliando-se a qualidade de vida em oito domínios naqueles pacientes atendidos pelo Instituto de Promoção e de Assistência à Saúde de Servidores do Estado de Sergipe – IPESAÚDE, diagnosticados com o Covid-19 mediante teste RT-PCR positivo e que tenham sido cadastrados e acompanhados pelo projeto “Monitora Corona”. O nível de significância estatística adotado foi de 0,05 e o software utilizado o R Core Team 2021. Resultados: Um total de 221 pacientes foram incluídos no estudo. Destes, 63,8% eram do sexo feminino, com idade média de 43,6 anos. Os domínios apontaram os determinados valores: Capacidade Funcional - 68,5 DP (desvio-padrão); Limitação por Aspectos Físicos - 48,9 DP; Dor - 55,5 DP; Estado Geral de Saúde - 54,9 DP; Vitalidade - 50,5 DP; Aspectos Sociais - 53,5 DP; Limitação por Aspectos Emocionais - 43,4 DP; Saúde Mental - 54,3 DP. Considerações finais: Na amostra avaliada, a maioria dos pacientes foram constituidos por mulheres adultas jovens com a qualidade de vida e saúde mental significativamente alteradas pela infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 e seu tratamento. Diante o exposto, sugere-se necessidade de enfrentamento das repercussões negativas da saúde mental com propostas de organização e implementação de serviços de atenção à saúde da população.
