OBJECTIVE: Because of Covid 19, it has become necessary to revise the treatment of cancer patients ("how" and "when"). That has had important psychological repercussions. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the impact of Covid19 in terms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Depression and the potential association with coping strategies.
METHODS: We conducted an exploratory study with 106 patients undergoing treatment, using following questionnaires: Screening Questionnaire for Disaster Mental Health and Mini-Mental Adjustment to Cancer.
RESULTS: Only 25.5% of our sample showed symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and 6.6% revealed a probable presence of depression. In addition, it came up a significant correlation between SQD_P and the coping styles "Hopelessness" (r = 0.41 p < 0.001) and "Anxious Preoccupation" (r = 0.45, p < 0.001). A strong correlation also emerged between non-Covid 19 patients and PTSD (r = 0.29, p = 0.002).
CONCLUSIONS: Our preliminary data did not reveal a prevalence of PTSD, but the persistence of the health emergency requires to focus future research on protective and risk factors related to PTSD and psychological distress in cancer patients, in order to reduce the mental health burden of Covid19.
