“…Treatment duration ranged from brief interventions of 30 minutes (35) to 8 weeks (27,59,60). Some studies offered access to the intervention for three (61)(62)(63)(64), four (65) or six months (48) without specifying the intended treatment duration. The majority of e-mental health interventions (N=22) were based on CBT, some studies (N=7) gave normative personalized feedback on a treated mental condition, often as part of a general health check, while other studies used mindfulness training as a key treatment element (N=6), used psychoeducation (N=5), and the remaining studies used cognitive training (N=2), problem-solving training (N=2), positive psychology (N=2), and applications of Lazarus & Folkman's transactional theory (66) of stress and coping (N=2); each study involved resilience training, career identity training, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT).…”

Objective This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effectiveness of occupational e-mental health interventions aimed at stress, depression, anxiety, burnout, insomnia, mindfulness, well-being, and alcohol misuse and their potential treatment moderators. Methods We systematically reviewed randomized control trials published in English using three electronic databases (MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL) and three register trials. A pooled effect size for each mental health area was calculated using random-effects modelling. For each meta-analysis, we conducted an analysis of potential moderators (ie, type of recruitment, age, gender, initial psychological symptoms, guidance, therapy type, and study quality). Results In total, 50 studies were included in the systematic review, and 34 studies were included in the metaanalyses. We noted moderate treatment effects on stress (Hedges'g=0.54), insomnia (g=0.70), and burnout (g=0.51) and small treatment effects on depression (g=0.30), anxiety (g=0.34), well-being (g=0.35), and mindfulness (g=0.42). The pooled effect on alcohol intake was small and nonsignificant. Conclusions Our results suggest that occupational e-mental health interventions are associated with significant health improvements. However, more research is required to understand which factors contribute to the variation in effectiveness of particular interventions depending on the mental health area and characteristics of participants and interventions.

“…Both groups improved in work functioning over time, with no significant differences between the two. Another study 41) also compared the work health surveillance module plus online interventions to a waitlist control. While there was no impact on worker's general well-being, depression, or anxiety scores, significant improvements in mental health and psychological well-being were reported versus control postintervention.…”

Objectives:This review sought to determine what is currently known about the focus, form, and efficacy of web-based interventions that aim to support the well-being of workers and enable them to manage their work-related stress. Method: A scoping review of the literature as this relates to web-based interventions for the management of work-related stress and supporting the psychological well-being of workers was conducted. Results: Forty-eight web-based interventions were identified and reviewed, the majority of which (n = 37) were " individual " -focused and utilized cognitive-behavioral techniques, relaxation exercises, mindfulness, or cognitive behavior therapy. Most interventions identified were provided via a website (n = 34) and were atheoretical in nature. Conclusions : There is some low-to-moderate quality evidence that " individual " -focused interventions are effective for supporting employee well-being and managing their work-related stress. There are few webbased interventions that target "organizational" or "individual/organization" interface factors, and there is limited support for their efficacy. A clear gap appears to exist between work-stress theory and its application in the design and development of web-based interventions for the management of work-related stress. Supporting employee well-being in the workplace is an increasingly important public health challenge 1) . Recent organizational trends have pointed to the emergence of progressively more challenging and dynamic working environments, attributable in part to economic globalization, the decline of traditional industries, and the growth of occupational sectors such as IT and service industries 2) . Issues associated with this changing landscape include pressure to upskill, job insecurity, role conflict, reduced employees leave and rest time, fewer rewards, and insufficient work-life balance 3) . Much of the current research with regard to worker stress interventions is marked by a distinct transition in focus from the traditional face-to-face format to webbased delivery modalities. Web-based behavioral health interventions are typically delivered through dedicated program websites, computer program, or smartphone application 4) . The benefits of web-based versus traditional face-to-face interventions include fewer constraints with regard to time and location, the potential to access a larger target group, and protection of participant anonymity, thereby reducing possible stigma with regard to seeking help for stress. An increasing number of studies have reported on the delivery and evaluation of web-based stress management interventions for workers. However, the literature has yet to be reviewed with regard to the focus and form of such interventions and their efficacy in the prevention and management of employee stress.A considerable number of worker-directed stress management intervention studies have been published. A recent meta-review synthesized the findings of 23 systematic reviews, reporting 499 primary research st...

“…A saúde mental (SM) é um estado de bem-estar em que o indivíduo percebe suas próprias habilidades, pode lidar com as tensões normais da vida, pode trabalhar de forma produtiva e é capaz de contribuir para sua comunidade. (Bolier et al, 2014). Tendo em conta o alto grau de complexidade dos contextos de trabalho em ambiente hospitalar, os profissionais de saúde que aí trabalham estão sujeitos a que o seu bem-estar e SM possam ficar comprometidos, levando à ocorrência de problemas de SM (Martins, Campos, Duarte, Chaves & Silva, 2016).…”

Os enfermeiros estão sujeitos a que o seu bem-estar e saúde mental possam ficar comprometidos. Dois terços dos enfermeiros apresenta uma perceção negativa da sua saúde mental. A manutenção e prevenção da saúde mental dos enfermeiros é fundamental para que se prestem cuidados eficazes e de qualidade. OBJETIVO(S):. Conhecer a saúde mental de um grupo de enfermeiros de um Centro Hospitalar da região centro de Portugal e correlacionar com as variáveis sociodemográficas MÉTODOS: Estudo quantitativo, descritivo-correlacional, transversal. A amostra, não probabilística de conveniência, foi composta por 83 enfermeiros. O questionário foi constituído por dados sociodemográficos e a versão portuguesa reduzida do Mental Health Inventory. Foram assegurados todos os princípios éticos e formais, recorrendo-se a software estatístico para análise estatística com testes não paramétricos. RESULTADOS: A saúde mental da amostra é considerada razoável, com valores acima do ponto de corte para a possível existência de sintomas moderados de sofrimento psicológico. A dimensão depressão é a mais bem cotada e a dimensão ansiedade aquela com menor cotação média. Ocorre a prevalência de sintomas graves de depressão em 20,5% da amostra. As mulheres apresentam níveis mais baixos de saúde mental do que os homens. Os enfermeiros que trabalham em serviços psiquiátricos evidenciam maiores níveis de saúde mental comparativamente aos que não trabalham em serviços de psiquiatria CONCLUSÕES: Os enfermeiros que constituíram a amostra apresentam níveis razoáveis de saúde mental, parecendo contudo ser importante o desenvolvimento de programas para a sua promoção no contexto ocupacional.
