“…Our meta-analysis also showed a higher frequency of anxiety (29.0%) and depressive (26.3%) features in HCW compared to the general population with SARS/MERS infection (metaanalyses: depression=15% (Rogers et al, 2020); anxiety dis-orders=14.8% (Rogers et al, 2020)), although the current meta-analysis was not restricted to categorical diagnoses. Furthermore, the SARS outbreak has resulted in historically high suicide rates in the general population (Cheung et al, 2008;Yip et al, 2010); suicide cases related to COVID-19 have been already reported, also in HCW (Jun et al, 2020). However, it is not known how risk of suicide is in HCW compared to the general population.…”

“…This lack of communication may be linked to the sense of moral suffering that they report in relation to taking on non-consensual decisions ( Cacchione, 2020 ). According to Jun et al (2020) , teamwork and group cohesion in times of crisis provide essential support to enhance coping and resilience. Additionally, middle managers, who are responsible for implementing care plans in care units, must take into account care nurses’ experience when managing the response to the existing demands in situations of crisis ( Estalella et al, 2020 ).…”

Highlights Critical care nurses have had to perform tasks for which they have not received proper training. Nurses have had to manage the fear of becoming infected and spreading it to their families. Moral suffering and emotional exhaustion are major consequences of front-line care. Heavy workloads, high patient-nurse ratios, and lack of rest are causing exhaustion among nurses.

Background: Few studies investigated COVID-19 pandemic psychological effects on pediatric healthcare staff. The aim of this study was to evaluate sleep quality and psychological effects of pediatric healthcare workers during COVID-19 epidemic in Italy and to evaluate potential differences between Primary and Secondary Care operators. Methods: Pediatric healthcare workers were involved in an online survey aimed to characterize responders and to define their clinical expertise in the management of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients during pandemic. Using validated scores, the online questionnaire assessed sleep quality, stress and anxiety level, self-efficacy and social support in pediatric healthcare workers. Results: During COVID-19 outbreak, 67.43% of our population were suffering sleep disturbance, and we found a positive correlation between sleep disturbances with stress and anxiety. Furthermore, 19.42% of subjects were suffering anxiety and 53% were at risk of developing an acute stress disorder. Stress resulted inversely correlated with self-efficacy and social support.Secondary care operators were more affected than family pediatricians by sleep disturbances, stress but especially by anxiety. Social support was considerably higher in secondary care operators compared to family pediatricians.Conclusions: Despite the less exposure and the less infection probability, much of pediatric healthcare workers were suffered sleep disturbance, anxiety and potential stress disorder. In the Pediatric Units, these psychological effects could be related to other factors compared to frontline departments, such as the early confused situation, the difficulties in workplaces managing and in finding personal protective equipment, as well as the subsequent sense of helplessness and frustration.
