Abstract

Introduction: COVID-19 is an infectious disease that first appeared in Wuhan in December 2019. Indonesia as of January 2021 has reached more than one million cases, with more than 300 doctors dying. Resident doctors of Universitas Hasanuddin continue to provide services during the pandemic so that it is vulnerable to infection and anxiety. However, there is no clear data regarding this. Methods: Comparative research with a quantitative approach, conducted in October-December 2020 on resident doctors of Universitas Hasanuddin. A total of 399 residents filled out an anonymous questionnaire online, consisting of general data, PSS-10, and GAD-7. Data processing used Microsoft Excel and SPSS 24.0 to obtain the expected statistical results. Analysis used the chi-square test. Results: Almost 50% of resident doctors of Universitas Hasanuddin experienced anxiety (GAD-7: 49.6% mild-severe anxiety; PSS-10: 48.4% moderate-severe stress). Psychiatric history and COVID-19 confirmed history were associated with anxiety (p<0.05). Study period level and working hours also affected stress levels. Availability of personal protective equipment was associated with anxiety. Age, gender, marital status, financing, number of children, number of households, infectious work area and contact history had no effect on anxiety.Sources of anxiety included fear of infection, availability of PPE, transmission to family, continuity of study, continuity of incentives, and uncertainty of the end of the pandemic. Conclusion: Psychiatric history and COVID-19 diagnosis are factors associated with MPPDS anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic.
