Semashko National Research Institute of Public Health161220202545908042022Copyright © 2020,2020The author presented the results of a medical and sociological study of the neuropsychic health of 400 adult Muscovites and residents of the Moscow Region in the period from April 12-15, 2020. The survey was conducted by phone or email. Of the 400 respondents, 350 people underwent surveys with the author of this article on other socio-hygienic problems, that is, they have experience in such studies. The sample is random, related to the willingness of a person to participate in a medical sociological study. Of the surveyed number of individuals, women accounted for 56%, men - 44%. 15% of people were 18-24 years old; 13% - 25-35 years old; 28% - 36-49 years old; 25% - 50-60 years; 19% are over 60 years old. Non-working pensioners accounted for 14%; housewives - 7%; working in the public sector, government and administration, law enforcement agencies - 24%; employees in various business areas - 30%; self-employed entrepreneurs - 8%; pupils (students, graduate students) - 17%. The examination took place 21 (+/-3) days after the start of the voluntary isolation regime (during the epidemic of COVID-19). At the time of the study, students did not attend universities, did not study at all, or did self-education. Self-employed tried to continue remote work. 67% of small and medium-sized businesses stopped activity. The rest continued to work. 73% of employees stopped working. The rest continue to work as sellers of grocery stores, taxi drivers, couriers or switched to a shorter working day. Public sector employees worked remotely in 83% of cases or periodically visited the workplace. Civil servants continued to work, with the exception of people over 65 and mothers with children under 14. Law enforcement officers continue to serve with increased workload, sometimes in special conditions of service. These factors can be regarded as traumatic, caused by the regime of restriction of social contacts, violations of the usual way of life, lower incomes, the threat of illness and changes in living standards. None of those examined earlier in the psycho-neurological (or narcological) dispensary were registered; they did not actively contact a psychiatrist, psychotherapist, psychologist, or psychologist. 19% of the examined were previously observed by a doctor by reason of arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, coronary heart disease, vegetovascular dystonia, neurological pathology against the background of osteochondrosis of the cervical spine. 11% of people periodically took psychopharmacological drugs as prescribed by a doctor or on their own to treat the above pathology. No one had known the facts of contact with persons infected with coronavirus. After three weeks of being on voluntary self-isolation at home, 44% of respondents noted a feeling of vague anxiety. Denied a sense of vague anxiety of 18%. 38% could not confirm or deny the feeling of vague anxiety. Annoyance that appeared (or intensified during the period of self-isolation) was noted by 58% of respondents. 17% of individuals denied irritability. The rest did not note increased irritability or could not answer in the affirmative. 29% of people noted the appearance (or increase during the period of self-isolation) of excessive temper, anger, which arose unreasonably or as a result of neutral actions (inaction) of people who underwent self-isolation together with the subjects. 71% of people denied the presence of excessive temper, anger. However, many answers were evasive. 74% of people reported sleep disturbance (or worsening) during the period of self-isolation. The most common violations were falling asleep, less often a superficial sleep with frequent awakenings, or early awakening. 26% of respondents said they increased alcohol consumption. Patients with psychosomatic pathology note an increase in the dose of medications taken to correct blood pressure, reduce heart attacks, and relieve other symptoms. 11% of respondents noted an increase in the number of psychopharmacological drugs taken. From the data obtained it follows that during the period of the coronavirus infection epidemic, the number of borderline mental disorders increased, which require further research in order to optimize measures for the organization of medical and diagnostic assistance to the population.COVID-19COVID-19public healthneuropsychic (mental) healthобщественное здоровьенервно-психическое здоровье1.Березин Ф.Б.
