Abstract

Objective To explore the characteristics of anxiety, depression and insomnia of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients in Shanghai makeshift hospital. Methods Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), and self-complied questionnaire were used to survey 765 COVID-19 patients in a Shanghai makeshift hospital during April 9 and May 15, 2022 through an online survey system. Their statuses and characteristics of anxiety, depression, and insomnia as well as their influencing factors were analyzed. Results The positive detection rate of anxiety, depression and insomnia of the patients was 22.22%, 26.67% and 24.05%, respectively, which were significantly lower than the rates of 2020 (P 0.9, RMSEA=0.063, SRMR=0.053), indicating that adverse effects positively predicted a latent variable of anxiety, depression, and insomnia, with a standardized coefficient of 0.209 (P < 0.001). Conclusion With the global development of the epidemic, the infected individuals have decreased anxiety and depression, and the adverse effects on them have shifted from the disease itself to concerns about the economy, work, and family.
