Resumen
La pandemia del COVID-19 es la más reciente en la historia de la humanidad, caracterizada por elevadas implicaciones en términos de mortalidad, morbilidad física y psicológica. El objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar pensamientos, percepciones, sentimientos, subjetividades y actuaciones con referencia al desempeño médico y la pandemia del COVID-19, así como estimar su asociación con probables trastornos de ansiedad generalizada [TAG]. Se realizó un estudio transversal en médicos generales del Caribe colombiano, por medio de invitación y participación electrónica para diligenciar un formulario que contenía características sociodemográficas y 41 interrogantes sobre pensamientos, sentimientos, percepciones, subjetividades o actuaciones relacionadas con el COVID-19, tomadas de una lluvia de ideas sobre pandemias y salud mental. Se aplicó Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale [GAD-7] para identificar probable TAG. Se realizó regresión logística no ajustada. Participaron 294 médicos generales, 59,6% femeninas, el 83% laboraba en capitales de departamentos. El 38,4% presentó TAG y más de la mitad manifestó temor al COVID-19. A la presencia de TAG se asociaron los síntomas: estrés, nerviosismo, temor, cansancio, síntomas virales, incomodidad con respecto a la pandemia, decepción laboral y percepción de discriminación. A menor presencia de TAG se asociaron.Citas
