Abstract Introduction During the COVID pandemic, the 2019-2020 cohort of final year students were invited to participate in Foundation interim Year 1 placements (FiY1). FiY1 aimed to ease transition to Foundation Year 1 doctor (FY1). We assessed the psychological impact of FiY1 on final year medical students. Method A cross-sectional survey was distributed to final year medical students in the UK between June 4th and July 4th, 2020. The survey contained the following domains: participant demographics, rationale for FiY1 participation, a checklist of the key safety principles for FiY1s, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Perceived Stress scale-4. Results 107 final years responded to the survey. 72.0% (n = 77) of final year students surveyed were working as FiY1s. Final year students participating in FiY1 postings had reduced rates of anxiety (29.9% vs 43.4%, P = 0.186), depression (5.2% vs 20.0%, P = 0.018) and lower perceived stress levels (5.0 vs 7.2, P < 0.001). 19.5% (15/77) FiY1s reported working beyond their competency, 27.3% (22/77) felt unsupervised, but 94.8% (73/77) of FiY1s felt the post prepared them for FY1. Conclusions Students participating in FiY1 postings felt less stressed and depressed than those not participating in the scheme and the majority felt it was preparing them for FY1.

Aim This study was conducted to examine spiritual wellbeing and its relationship with perceived stress, anxiety and depression among cardiac patients. Methods The present descriptive study was conducted on 120 patients with cardiac diseases. The Perceived Stress Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Paloutzian and Ellison Spiritual Wellbeing Questionnaire were used for data collection. Results Of 120 patients, 79 were diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome, 30 were diagnosed with heart failure, and the rest were diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia (mostly atrial fibrillation). The mean scores for depression, anxiety and stress in the studied patients were 10.1, 9.9, and 19.5, respectively. The mean score of the total spiritual wellbeing was 86.2. Results showed an inverse and significant relationship between spiritual wellbeing with perceived stress (R2=−0.535, P=0.001), anxiety (R2=−0.389, P<0.001), and depression (R2=−0.388, P<0.001). Conclusions Improving cardiac patients’ spiritual wellbeing should be recognised as an essential part of holistic care and an effective strategy in reducing depression, anxiety and stress among cardiac patients.

Abstract Background: Medical students experience significant stress and anxiety during undergraduate education. Coaching is a possible way of supporting these students throughout this challenging time. To assess the benefits of coaching for medical students, a pilot study providing coaching was performed. This pilot assessed how coaching affected the mental health of medical students and how coaching was received by them. Methods: Twelve third-year medical students were each given eight 30-60 minute coaching sessions. Each participant took the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) pre-, mid-and post-coaching. After coaching, there were three open-ended questions to measure the reactions to coaching and a scale to determine the likelihood of accessing coaching in the future. Results: There was a significant effect of coaching on perceived stress(p=.023); a trend toward significant effect of coaching on anxiety(p=.057); and no effect of coaching on depression. Qualitative analysis indicated Affective responses (gaining perspective and self-awareness); Cognitive responses (goal setting and working through solving problems); and Skills responses (developing reflection abilities and critical thinking). Attributes of coaching included perceiving coaching as a positive, individualized and supportive experience that students were highly likely to access again. Conclusions: Coaching holds promise as an intervention offered to medical students to reduce stress and anxiety, and provide positive support for students, preparing them for their professional futures.

A brief, 3-item index of social support among college students, the Social Support at University Scale, is introduced. Its psychometric properties are examined in a sample of 90 college students (51 women, 39 men) and compared with those of an equivalent scale distributed among 100 university staff (67 women, 33 men). The Short-Form Social Support Questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were also administered to each participant. The data suggest that the Social Support at University Scale possesses internal consistency reliability suitable for research (α= .68), external validity as indicated by comparisons between the student and staff samples, concurrent validity as indicated by correlations with measures of generic social support, and criterion validity as indicated by associations with known correlates of social support, namely, perceived stress, anxiety, and depression.

Introduction. Both peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and varicose disease (VD), as chronic diseases, can generate high levels of emotional distress, with negative affects, which will influence treatment adherence and quality of life. The study’s aim was to analyze the relationship between anxiety, depression, perceived stress and social support in patients with PAD and with VD. Method. The study included a number of 54 patients (38 men and 16 women) diagnosed with PAD (39 patients) and with VD (15 patients).There were applied (before surgery) psychological tests: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), The Duke-UNC Functional Social Support Questionnaire (FSSQ). Results. Women had higher levels of anxiety and depression than men (ns), higher scores on perceived stress scale (32,94 vs 29, t=-2,26; p<0,028), but lower scores on social support scale (25,50 vs 30,42, t=2,13; p<0,038). Patients with PAD had higher scores at anxiety (10,31 vs 8,33, t=2,58; p<0,012), depression (7,36 vs 5,40, t=2,05; p<0,045) and perceived stress (31 vs 28, ns) and lower scores at social support scale (27,62 vs 32,47, t=-2,05; p<0,045) than patients with VD. Both anxiety and depression positively correlated with perceived stress (0,639 respective 0,410; p=0,01) and negatively with social support (-0,574, respective -0,522; p=0,01). Age negative correlated with social support (-0,464; p=0,01). Conclusions. The indication for surgical treatment of vascular disease is a distress factor, leading to anxiety and depression. The increased anxiety at patients with PAD compared with those with VD can be explained by greater severity of this group of diseases, higher surgical risks, more frequent complications and a high risk of amputation. Low social support mainly observed in some elderly patients indicate, on the one hand the restriction of support network at this age and, on the other hand, its usefulness especially in the case of diseases that require surgery and postoperative recovery.

This study investigated the intensity of stress, anxiety and depression in a sample of 141 migraineurs compared with a control group of 109 non-migraine workers matched for age and sex. Stress was measured using the Perceived Stress Questionnaire, and anxiety and depression using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Results indicated that stress and anxiety were higher in the migraine group than in the control group and above the clinical level. Depression scores remained low in both groups, under clinical relevance. Stress is a primordial factor in the triggering and perpetuation of migraine attacks. The high score of the items ‘morning fatigue’, ‘intrusive thoughts about work’, ‘feeling under pressure’, ‘impatience’, and ‘irritability’ of the stress questionnaire in the migraineurs is particularly significant in the intensive stress response. It seems necessary to manage stress to improve the daily life of migraineurs and to study the link between stress, anxiety and migraine.
