Abstract

Introduction. Psychoemotional disorders arising against the background of general somatic diseases, and often being their root cause, undoubtedly affect not only the prognosis and dynamics of somatic pathology, but also the quality of life of the individual as a whole. Aim. The aim of the work was to assess the extent of stress load, identify premorbid deviations of the psycho-emotional state, as well as the presence of signs of borderline mental disorders in order to use the results in the planning and implementation of psychocorrective (psychotherapeutic) interventions. Material and methods. A study of the psycho-emotional state of 98 employees of internal affairs bodies who were admitted for treatment to the therapeutic department of the hospital of Federal Medical Unit of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the Amur region was carried out. 46 of those examined tested positive for COVID-19. Results and discussion. A comparative analysis of the frequency of occurrence of deviations in the psycho-emotional state in patients who underwent COVID-19 and patients who did not have a new coronavirus infection did not reveal statistically significant differences. Conclusion. It was concluded that the approach of continuous psychological testing of patients entering hospitalization helps to quickly identify a contingent with signs of comorbid pathology (simultaneous coexistence of somatic diseases and psycho-emotional disorders), which in turn makes it possible to plan and implement psycho- correctional measures in a timely manner.
