Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overall objective of this study is to assess the enormity of mental health outcomes among healthcare providers (nurses and physicians) exposed to COVID-19 during the time of the pandemic in the United States, specifically targeting those areas most effected.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Healthcare providers (nurses and physicians) on the frontlines of the COVID-19 response are facing a critical situation and are subject to increased psychological distress. Those directly involved in the diagnosis, treatment and care of patients with COVID-19 are at significant risk of developing physical, psychological, and psychosocial distress.

The data examined in this study will further clarify the mental distress experienced by healthcare workers and lead to the development of peer-support and educational initiatives to improve these findings. The central hypothesis of this research is that high levels of mental distress will be associated with caring for patients with COVID-19.

This study will use an observational, cross-sectional on-line survey design. Participants will complete a 15 minute self-administered questionnaire. All data will be de-identified.
