SUMMARY:

Covid-19 is a disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARSCoV-2), with a significant global spread and mortality. Within the context of the pandemic, there has been an observed increase in mental disorders specifically depression and anxiety among healthcare professionals, particularly those in the nursing team. The aim of this research was to analyze the prevalence and factors associated with anxiety and depression in nursing professionals who were actively involved in healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic. This cross-sectional epidemiological study was conducted with nursing professionals at a university hospital in a city in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Data were obtained with a sociodemographic, economic, and work questionnaire, along with the Beck Anxiety Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory. The data collection process involved distributing Google Forms access links via participants’ WhatsApp and/or email. Data analysis was conducted using R 3.6 statistical software. The study sample predominantly consisted of female nursing professionals, nursing technicians/assistants. Most of the sample was composed by those who were brown/mulatto race, single, with income greater than three minimum wages, self-rated health as good. Nursing professionals with a family income greater than two and a half minimum wages and those working 40 hours per week exhibited a higher likelihood of developing moderate and severe anxiety. Furthermore, professionals with four or more years of experience in the field and a university degree demonstrated a higher likelihood of developing moderate anxiety. Those who were married or/in a relationship and had and had a college degree were more likely to experience severe anxiety. Nursing professionals with a university degree are more likely to experience mild depression. Additionally, individuals who were married/cohabiting, separated/divorced and had a college degree exhibited a higher likelihood of experiencing moderate depression. Moreover, individuals with an income greater than two and a half minimum wages and self-rated health as regular and good were more likely to experience severe depression. The prevalence of anxiety and depression was higher among nursing professionals who were married, had a university degree, and worked 40 hours per week. Specifically for depression, higher prevalence was observed among professionals with higher family income. However, there was no influence of gender, age, presence of children or self-assessment of health status on the prevalence of both anxiety and depression was observed.
