About This Trial

The objective of this prospective cohort study is to explore the association between the development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in surgeons and anesthesiologists and postoperative prognosis in surgical patients they care for during the COVID-19 pandemic. There are 2 cohorts included in this study. The first cohort consists of registered surgeons and anesthesiologists in the study center. The development of PTSD will be evaluated with a series of questionnaires and scales. This cohort defines exposure (with PTSD). The second cohort consists of surgical patients managed by the surgeons and anesthesiologists in the first cohort. The postoperative outcome of these patients will be evaluated thus to explore the association between PTSD in physicians and adverse patient outcomes. The second cohort defines the outcomes( response).
