Abstract

Objective: To determine the prevalence of insomnia, depression, anxiety, stress and burnout syndrome in the personnel in charge of the maintenance of biomedical equipment at the Hospital de Especialidades Carlos Andrade Marín.

The data were obtained through an ad-hoc questionnaire elaborated in Google Forms that contained sociodemographic-labor variables and the tests of the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), DASS- 21 and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), ensuring anonymity and its confidentiality. Results: 25% of the participants indicated suffering from anxiety, 25% depression, 5% stress and 20% sleep problems. Regarding the burnout syndrome, professional achievement is the predominant subscale with 60%, followed by cynicism with 20% and finally exhaustion with only 5%. Discussion: the present study shows a lower prevalence and intensities of scale in terms of the psychological impact of the study subjects during the pandemic, in comparison with the evaluated investigations, mainly as a consequence of the fact that the participants are not part of the personnel classified as first class attention line
