SUMMARY:

In the context of the pandemic, it is possible to verify an increase in traumas or disorders related to depression, anxiety and stress, we face health professionals in front of Covid-19, due to constant exposure to certain risks and stressors. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the existence of correlations between the levels of social support dimensions and the levels of depression, anxiety, and stress of Covid-19 front-line health professionals in an Adult Intensive Care Unit . It is a quantitative, cross-sectional and correlational study, carried out in a general hospital in the north of the State of Piauí. The research sample consisted of 93 professionals, including physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, psychologists, nutritionists and social workers, who work or have worked at the ICU Covid-19. The instruments consisted of a structured questionnaire, including sociodemographic, professional and health data; the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale – 21 and the Social Support Scale. After approval by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, data collection took place through a Google Forms access link, with the instruments added, sent to the participants' WhatsApp and/or e-mail. Data were analyzed using the free statistical software R, version 4.2.0. The results indicated a strong positive correlation between stress with depression and anxiety, with the prevalence of moderate levels of stress. And a weak positive correlation of these variables with the dimensions of social support, suggesting that such constructs were influenced by health variables, for example, having sought or received help from a mental health professional during the pandemic. This concludes the need for measures to protect the mental health of health professionals working in the ICU to combat Covid-19 of the hospital under study.
