Abstract:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, medical residents had the task of being the frontline of the response, being exposed to high risk of infection, increased clinical duty, and long and irregular working hours in highly restricted environments, increasing their levels of stress. We sought to expose the experiences of a group of geriatrics residents during this period of change in their professional and personal lives through the photovoice methodology. Thirteen participants were recruited and had 2 weeks to take photographs. The photographs were discussed in group meetings; the content of the conversations was transcribed and analyzed using interpretive description. Sixteen themes were identified. They were divided into personal life (11 themes) and life as a resident (5 themes). Adaptation was the main theme that came into discussion. The photographs and themes show how life changed for the participants, having a feeling of isolation, especially from their families, and highlighting their experiences as a team and community. While the pandemic, particularly at its beginning, was a period of uncertainty and a heavy load of work, it also provided learning and experience to this group of young physicians, which should not hide the fact that mental health concerns and burnout were a common situation. An online gallery was created which is publicly accessible.
摘要:
在COVID-19大流行期间,医疗居民的任务是成为应对措施的前线,暴露于高感染风险,增加临床职责,以及在高度受限的环境中长时间和不规则的工作时间,增加他们的压力水平。我们试图通过photovoice方法揭露一群老年病居民在职业和个人生活变化期间的经历。招募了13名参与者,并有2周的时间拍照。在小组会议上讨论了这些照片;使用解释性描述对对话的内容进行了转录和分析。确定了16个主题。他们分为个人生活(11个主题)和居民生活(5个主题)。适应是讨论的主题。这些照片和主题展示了参与者的生活是如何改变的,有一种孤立的感觉,尤其是他们的家人,并强调他们作为团队和社区的经验。虽然大流行,特别是在它的开始,是一段不确定的时期和繁重的工作,它还为这群年轻的医生提供了学习和经验,这不应该掩盖心理健康问题和倦怠是常见情况的事实。创建了一个可公开访问的在线画廊。
