Resumo
Um novo tipo de coronavírus, identificado inicialmente na China, na província de Wuhan se espalhou rapidamente por vários países no final de 2019. No início de 2020, devido ao número crescente de casos em todos os continentes, a Covid-19 foi elevada ao status de pandemia. Devido a repentina demanda nos serviços de saúde para atender ao sem precedente quantitativo de internações simultâneas, muitos profissionais de saúde foram submetidos a jornadas de trabalho ainda mais longas, devido a falta de mão de obra disponível, além da exposição direta à contaminação, especialmente enfermeiros e outros profissionais da enfermagem. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo buscar, na literatura científica, o que as evidências apontam sobre os principais impactos da pandemia da Covid-19 sobre o enfermeiro no Brasil. Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa da literatura, no qual foram obtidos inicialmente 73 artigos e após aplicados critérios de inclusão e exclusão, 9 artigos foram selecionados. A mortalidade e a exaustão física, seguida pela ansiedade e a depressão foram os impactos mais relatados. No entanto, distúrbios do sono, infecção pelo novo coronavírus e medo de contaminar-se ou a seus entres queridos, estresse, Burnout, sintomas psicossomáticos, desmotivação, uso de drogas lícitas e ilícitas e ideação suicida também foram relatados. Este trabalho evidenciou a importância de estudos que identifiquem os principais impactos de pandemias, endemias e outros surtos sobre profissionais de saúde para o melhor entendimento de cenários como o corrente, viabilizando uma melhor alocação de recursos humanos e financeiros, para melhor delinear estratégias de enfrentamento a ocorrências semelhantes a esta no futuro.
A novel type of coronavirus, first identified in China, in Wuhan province, quickly spread to several countries in late 2019. In early 2020, due to the growing number of cases on all continents, Covid-19 was elevated to a pandemic status. Due to the sudden demand on health services to meet the unprecedented amount of simultaneous hospitalizations, many health professionals were required to even longer working hours, due to the lack of available working force, in addition to direct exposure to contamination, especially nurses and other nursing professionals. Thus, the present study aimed to seek, in the scientific literature, what the evidence points on the main impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on nurses in Brazil. An integrative literature review was performed, in which 73 articles were collected and after the inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, 9 articles were selected. Mortality and physical exhaustion, followed by anxiety and depression were the most reported impacts. However, sleep disturbances, infection by the new coronavirus and fear of infection or infecting your loved ones, stress, Burnout, psychosomatic symptoms, lack of motivation, use of legal and illegal drugs and suicidal ideation were also reported. This work highlighted the importance of studies that identify the main impacts of pandemics, endemics and other outbreaks on health professionals for a better understanding of scenarios such as the current one, enabling a better allocation of human and financial resources, in order to better delineate strategies for fight similar occurrences in the future.
