What this trial studies
This observational study examines how the COVID-19 pandemic affects stress levels in individuals undergoing SARS-CoV2 screening. Participants will complete a self-survey via a REDCap questionnaire, which includes 31 questions assessing stress, socio-demographic factors, and lifestyle habits. The survey will be distributed in the waiting rooms of COVID screening centers, allowing for real-time data collection without any incentives for participation. The goal is to gather data on the relationship between stress and the screening process during the pandemic.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are individuals who are volunteering for COVID-19 screening.
Not a fit: Patients who are not undergoing COVID-19 screening will not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide insights into how screening procedures can be improved to reduce stress for patients.
How similar studies have performed: While there may be studies on stress related to healthcare procedures, this specific focus on COVID-19 screening is novel and has not been extensively tested.
