Özet:

 Objective: It was aimed to evaluate the phobia levels of COVID-19 Coronavirus disease 2019 in medical staff working in the pandemic service and intensive care service and to examine its relationship with psychosocial impact levels. Material and Method: The study included 100 people working in the pandemic service and intensive care units in the first year of the pandemic. Sociodemographic Data Form, COVID-19 Pandemic Psychosocial Impact Scale CPPIS and COVID-19 Phobia Scale CPS were administered to all participants. Results: The mean age of the participants was 32.57.4 years and 74 of them were women. Of them 29 were doctors, 52 were nurses, 19 were allied health personnel and 66 worked in the service, 29 in the intensive care unit and 5 in both. There were very strong correlations between the CPS and the CPPIS total score, the death anxiety and anxious thoughts subscale scores. A strong positive correlation was found between the CPS and CPPIS subscales scores including close relationships, functionality and somatic symptoms. A significant positive correlation was found between CPS and CPPIS scores and the duration of working in the pandemic service and intensive care unit. Conclusion: It was thought that as choranophobia increased in medical staffs working in the pandemic service, their psychosocial effects also increased. It has been thought that reducing the working time in the service andor intensive care unit during the pandemic, performing short-term rotations, may reduce the level of psychosocial impact and even be protective in terms of mental health of medical staff.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmada pandemi servisi ve yoğun bakım servisinde çalışan sağlık çalışanlarında COVID-19 Coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19 fobi düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi ve psikososyal etkilenme düzeyleri ile ilişkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya pandeminin ilk yılında pandemi servis ve yoğun bakımlarında çalışan 100 kişi alınmıştır. Tüm katılımcılara Sosyodemografik Veri Formu, COVID-19 Pandemisi Psikososyal Etkilenme Ölçeği CPPEÖ ve COVID-19 Fobi Ölçeği CFÖ uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılanların ortalama yaşı 32,57,4 ve 74ü kadındır. Katılımcıların 29u hekim, 52si hemşire, 19u yardımcı sağlık personelidir ve 66sı servis, 29u yoğun bakım, 5i hem servis hem yoğun bakımda çalışmıştır. CFÖ puanı ile CPPEÖ toplam puanı arasında ve CFÖ puanı ile CPPEÖ alt ölçekleri olan ölüm kaygısı ve endişeli düşünceler boyutu puanları arasında çok güçlü; yakın ilişkiler, işlevsellik ve bedensel belirtiler boyutu puanları arasında güçlü pozitif korelasyon saptanmıştır. CFÖ ve CPPEÖ puanı ile pandemi servis ve yoğun bakımlarında çalışma süresi arasında anlamlı pozitif korelasyon saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Pandemi servisinde çalışan sağlık çalışanlarında koronafobi artıkça psikososyal etkilenmelerinin de arttığı düşünülmüştür. Pandemide servis veveya yoğun bakımda çalışma süresinin azaltılması, kısa süreli rotasyonlarla yapılması, psikososyal etkilenme düzeyini azaltabileceği hatta sağlık çalışanı ruh sağlığı açısından koruyucu olabileceği düşünülmüştür.
