Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the prevalence rate and related risk factors of anxiety, depression and insomnia symptoms in close contacts of COVID-19 patients undergoing centralized quarantine and observation, so as to provide references for follow-up targeted psychological crisis intervention. MethodsFrom February 6 to 8, 2020, a total of 136 close contacts at designated quarantine sites in four districts and counties of Ya'an city were enrolled, and assessed using the general information questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). ResultsA total of 26 quarantined individuals (19.12%) had various degrees of anxiety, depression or insomnia, including 16 cases (11.76%) with anxiety, 9 cases (6.62%) with depression and 16 cases (11.76%) with insomnia. Correlation analysis showed that HAD (A) score was positively correlated with HAD (D) score (r=0.642, P<0.01). HAD (A) score was positively correlated with ISI score (r=0.590, P<0.01). HAD (D) score was positively correlated with ISI score (r=0.329, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factor of anxiety was the first week of isolation (OR=3.290, P<0.05), meantime, the risk factors of insomnia included the old age (OR=7.990, P<0.05) and the first week of isolation (OR=4.659, P<0.05). ConclusionThe close contacts of COVID-19 infections undergoing centralized quarantine and observation in Ya’an have high prevalence rate of anxiety and insomnia, and the symptoms are most severe during the first week of quarantine.
