摘要

Objectives: To evaluate life events, anxiety and depression levels among physicians and nurses in emergency department (ED). Design: An anonymous, self-reporting survey was employed between January 2013 and April 2013 that included Life Event Scale (LES), Zung's Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Zung's Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and other Likert-style questions. Participants: A total sample of 412 participants (124 physicians and 288 nurses) from the emergency department of eleven grade-3 and grade-2 general hospitals in Hunan Province, China. Results: ED physicians and nurses both experienced more negative life events than positive life events (mean total score: 14.13 VS. 6.41). The high pressure of work as a negative life event was the most frequently reported of all life events. Suggestive anxiety symptoms were reported by 6.34 % (5.65 % in physicians and 6.60 % in nurses) and suggestive depression symptoms were reported by 17.73 % (14.5 % in physicians and 18.8 % in nurses). Negative, but not positive, life events correlated with symptoms of depression and anxiety. Physicians experienced many more work-related negative events than nurses. Nurses showed higher levels of anxiety and depression than physicians. Conclusion: These findings suggest that emergency department physicians and nurses experienced many more negative life events than positive life events, and these negative life events, especially work-related negative events, may harmfully impact their mental health placing them at risk for depression and anxiety. Developing a range of coping strategies for decreasing the harmful effects of these negative life events and minimizing, or controlling, the occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms should be emphasized for physicians and nurses who work in a hospital’s emergency department.
