Research progress on psychological stress response,influencing factors and intervention strategies of front-line medical workers:taking the COVID-19 as an example
By searching the literature on mental health of front-line medical workers in the prevention and control of novel coronavirus infection at home and abroad,the psychological stress response,influencing factors and intervention strategies of front-line medical workers were systematically summarized and ana-lyzed.The front-line medical workers in epidemic prevention and control showed acute and chronic psychologi-cal stress reactions,including physical symptoms such as insomnia and fatigue,as well as psychological symp-toms such as depression,anxiety,and post-traumatic stress.Risk and protective factors at three levels of indi-vidual,work and social affect psychological stress response.Online and offline psychological intervention can help relieve the pressure of front-line medical workers.At present,most of the research focuses on the out-break period of the epidemic,and there is a lack of follow-up research on the long-term impact of the epidem-ic.Intervention studies report more on the development and implementation of the program,and less on the evidence-based test of the effect of the intervention.In the future,we can consider combining digital technolo-gy to develop intervention programs and test the effect of intervention.
