Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of network group psychological intervention and mental health education on the anxiety,depression and insomnia severity of medical staff and the effect of 3-month follow-up. Methods From May to November 2022,a total of 109 medical staff who participated in medical treatment work in a hospital in Tianjin were selected and randomly divided into comprehensive intervention group(network group psychological intervention combined with mental health education,n=53) and mental health education group(n=56) by a randomized controlled experiment design. Self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS) and insomnia severity index(ISI) were used to evaluated before,after the intervention and at 3-month follow-up. Results There were no statistically significant differences in gender,age,marital status,education background,occupation type and time of participating in medical treatment work between the two groups of medical staff(all P>0.05). Before the intervention,the scores of SAS[(41.46±10.38)points],SDS[(46.34±14.50)points] and ISI[(7.62±5.12)points] in the comprehensive intervention group were not statistically significantly different from those in the mental health education group [(40.47±9.59),(45.29±11.60),and (7.50±4.72)points](all P>0.05). After the intervention,the scores of SAS[(31.44±5.38)points] and SDS[(33.96±7.55)points] in the comprehensive intervention group were significantly lower than those in the mental health education group[(35.47±7.88),(39.44±11.88)points](both P<0.05). At 3-month follow-up,the scores of SAS[(35.97±8.37)points] and SDS[(38.56±10.58)points] in the comprehensive intervention group were still significantly lower than those in the mental health education group[(39.91±11.89) and (43.50±14.29)points](both P<0.05). The scores of anxiety and depression after the intervention were significantly lower than before the intervention in the two groups(both P<0.05),and the scores of anxiety and depression in the comprehensive intervention group at 3 months follow-up were still significantly lower than before the intervention(both P<0.05). The score of ISI among medical staff in the comprehensive intervention group after the intervention was (5.70±3.70)points,significantly lower than before the intervention(P<0.05),and significantly lower than the score of the mental health education group[(7.21±3.94)points](P<0.05). However,the ISI score at the 3 month follow-up was (6.19±3.86)points,and there was no statistically significant difference compared with the score of before the intervention[(7.62±5.12)points](P>0.05). The ISI scores of medical staff in the mental health education group showed no statistically significant difference after the intervention and at 3 month follow-up compared to before the intervention(both P>0.05). Conclusion Network group psychological intervention combined with mental health education can effectively improve the anxiety,depression and insomnia of medical staff,and the effect is better than simple mental health education alone.
