Description
Summary:Covid-19 affected their mental health of kinesiologists through work overload, crucial decision making, and continuous exposure to the virus. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize the evidence of Covid-19 on mental health in kinesiologists. We used PRISMA and 4 databases (Pubmed, Scopus, CINAHL and WOS), selected observational studies, which evaluated anxiety, depression, burnout, stress and post-traumatic stress in kinesiology professionals during Covid-19. Critical appraisal of the JBI's Critical Appraisal Checklist was performed. The 20included studies showed mild to severe stages for anxiety (n = 13), high prevalence of depressive symptoms (n = 15) and effects on burnout, stress and post-traumatic stress. Factors such as living with children, decreased income and continuous exposure to the virus are observed as aggravating factors. Actions should be promoted to protect the mental health of kinesiologists, considering the post-pandemic effects and generating prevention strategies in the face of high health demands
