“…In this context, it is beneficial to use functional diagnosis as a basis for diagnosing a mental condition (Urata et al, 1990). We agree with the opinion of experts that the functional diagnosis of compensatory capabilities of the personality can be represented by blocks that contain extra-nosological features: biological block of adaptive potential; psychological block of mental adaptation; social block of mental adaptation; social support block (Broker et al, 1989;Kocjubinskij et al, 2005;Luca et al, 2020;Rebegea et al, 2019;Urata et al, 1990). It will also be appropriate to study the psychophysiological mechanisms of human stress for the psychophysiological support of various activities.…”

Aim. The aim of the study is to perform psychological and psychophysiological analysis of the features of stress resistance that provide adaptation of medical personnel in the situation of uncertainty. Materials and methods. The study involved: 125 students of III and IV years of study majoring in “Treatment” and “Nursing”; 95 internship doctors 2-3 years of training in various specializations. 36.84% of the total numbers of studied internship doctors were those whose specialization is characterized by an increased level of stress. Methods: correlation analysis, tests with standardized questionnaires. Result. It was found that the manifestation of open, direct aggression by respondents is an acceptable strategy of interaction, which does not significantly affect adaptability. It has been studied that hostility, as an internal directive of the personality, is often not observed externally and determines the decrease in emotional comfort and violation of adaptation. Conclusions. It is proved that adaptive activity as a system-forming factor is accompanied by a number of psychological, biological and social processes and collectively forms the stress resistance of the personality. It is indicated that the immune system is an important part of the functional systems that form the biological factor of functional diagnosis at the stage of low stress resistance and borderline disorders. It is noted that it is appropriate to use functional diagnosis as a basis for diagnosing a person’s mental state in the development of stress resistance.

“…In literature, the syndrome represented a subject of great interest, its definitions being varied. While certain authors put forth a simple explanation, such as a psychological phase of exhaustion, cynicism and inefficiency at work, others have delved deeper in researching the substance of the problem, analysing its components (Luca et al, 2020b). As such, it has been argued in doctrine that an individual, throughout several weeks, may notice in his own person strong feelings of exhaustion, displaying a considerable decrease in performance, experiencing feelings of alienation from his activity, from colleagues, as well as from the institution (Fengler, 2016).…”

The burnout syndrome has represented a subject of great interest for both medicine professionals, and those in the sphere of psychology. For years, scientists have carried out researches meant to reveal the main causes and characteristics of this modern ailment, but many of the issues arisen remain unresolved. At present, work has become a segment taking up more than half a day. Most times, pressed by their superiors, people grow mentally and physically exhausted, the permanent stress giving birth to various medical conditions that are hard to combat. Unfortunately, the recommendations given by specialists are frequently ignored. Because of this, the symptoms of the burnout syndrome affect increasingly more people, regardless of the age range they belong to or their profession. Even if the human resource is finite, it should be exploited very gently. The era we live in, demands that we are productive, while health-related aspects (rest, sport and so on) are deemed less important. The numerous researches have shown that there are certain categories especially affected, as permanent pressure and long work spans are among the main causes for exhaustion. However, there are also certain professions that, despite not requiring an intense physical or mental effort, are predisposed to creating an environment favourable for exhaustion.

“…Coercive practice is the most radical measure in controlling aggression in patients with mental disorders (Ciobotea et al, 2016;Olofsson & Norberg, 2001;Untu et al, 2015;). Coercive measures in psychiatric hospitals have been, are and will be topics with extensive ethical and legal debates in psychiatric care (Luca et al 2020;Katsakou et al, 2010). The use of coercive measures is regulated in several laws, which differ internationally, depending on the socio-cultural and legal variety.…”

Coercion raises serious ethical and legal issues in psychiatric care. Coercive medical measures are applied in psychiatric institutions for protective purposes. Alcoholism is a social and medical problem because it especially affects the behavior of the individual. Alcohol consumption can catalyze exacerbations of mental illness and predispose to behaviors with an increased risk of violence. Aim: The purpose of this study is to illustrate medical and legal issues related to coercive measures in emergency psychiatric care during the pandemic. Methods: The study is retrospective, and the data were taken from the observation sheets of patients in the period between March 1, 2020–March 31, 2021, in acute section II in the Institute of Psychiatry "Socola" Iasi. Results: Of those who required coercive measures during hospitalization, most were restraint for symptoms such as: self-aggression and aggression towards others. Mechanical restraint measures were also necessary in cases with hallucinatory-delusional symptoms, associated with self-aggression and aggression towards others. The share of hospitalized patients for alcohol abuse, who required coercive measures, was significantly higher during the pandemic. Conclusion: Manifestations of violence among patients with major mental disorders are rare. Mechanical restraint was necessary especially in those who had self-aggression and aggression towards others, symptoms secondary to alcohol consumption. Alcohol consumption amplifies the psychological imbalance in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
