    Salud mental y género en el personal sanitario durante la pandemia COVID-19 en Latinoamérica
    (2023-07-31)
    La emergencia sanitaria producto de la pandemia COVID-19 generó afectaciones en la salud mental de la población en general y en especial en el personal sanitario. Este estudio se basa en una encuesta realizada a personal sanitario en cinco países (Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Perú y Uruguay). La muestra fue de 9.820 participantes, con 79,6% de mujeres. Se construyeron modelos de regresión logística múltiple para hombres y mujeres en cada país, identificando los factores que estaban asociados al deterioro de su salud mental. Las mujeres reportaron un mayor deterioro de su salud mental y un perfil diferente de factores asociados a esto. Estos hallazgos se relacionan con los roles tradicionales según género, donde las mujeres tienen un mayor peso en el cuidado de los otros y valoran los aspectos relacionales por encima de los personales, a diferencia de los hombres quienes otorgan más importancia al ámbito público y al cuidado propio. Se resalta la importancia de incluir el enfoque de género en el diseño de políticas para el personal de salud, especialmente en el cuidado de su salud mental.

    Efectos de la pandemia y las medidas de confinamiento sobre la salud mental en población infantil de Chile
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2023-07-03)
    The COVID-19 pandemic has evolved complex challenges especially for families with children and adolescents. The impact of the pandemics' confinement on mental health has been described as devastating, limiting the resources available to families and increasing caregivers' stress levels and demands on their efforts. This study showed the results of an online survey of caregivers, mothers or fathers, with at least one child between 0 and 11 years old who lived the first weeks of confinement throughout Chile. The variables associated with physical symptoms, anxiety, mood, disruptive behavior, sleep problems, low frustration tolerance, attentional difficulties, hyperactivity and regressive behaviors that are related to the psychological impact that the measure of confinement has had on children from 0 to 11 years of age were studied through a questionnaire quantifying their frequency by age group, identifying how these effects are expressed in relation to the vital stages of child development. The results indicate that the younger the age of the children (0 to 3 years) the greater the presence of disruptive behaviors, while the older the age (9 to 11 years) the greater the presence of symptoms such as sadness, anxiety, listlessness and sleep problems. The implications of these results are discussed in terms of policies and strategies to address them, which should consider both the developmental stage of the children and the main caregivers, given the protective role they can play in stressful situations.
