Abstract Introduction The physiotherapists were one of the health professional categories on the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic front line, however little is known how the pandemic has affected the mental health of these professionals. Objective To analyze the relation-ship between the presence of common mental disorder (CMD) and elements related to the work of physiotherapists who have been assisting patients with COVID-19. Methods: This is a cross-sectional survey study composed by physiotherapists from four states of Brazil: Alagoas, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte. Working conditions evaluated were type of contract, weekly worked hours, time working, job satisfaction, and psychosocial aspects related to work. The CMD assessment was performed using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20). Results A total of 288 physiotherapists answered the electronic form, out of which 76.2% had CMD. Fear of reinfection (OR 2.75, 95%CI: 1.35-5.63) and previous infection by COVID-19 (OR: 2.03, 95%CI: 1.09-3.78) were factors related to a higher chance of risk of CMD. However, those who reported being satisfied with the work (OR: 0.28, 95%CI 0.11-0.72) and being more than 30 years old (OR: 0.46, 95%CI 0.24-0.88) had a lower chance of CMD risk. Conclusion Physiotherapists showed a higher prevalence of CMD. Fear of reinfection and previous infection by COVID-19 were risk factors to CMD, while satisfaction with the work and being more than 30 years old were protective factors to CMD.

Resumo Introdução Os fisioterapeutas foram uma das categorias profissionais da linha de frente do combate à pandemia do coronavírus (COVID-19), todavia, pouco se sabe como esta pandemia afetou a saúde mental destes profissionais. Objetivo Analisar a relação entre a presença de transtorno mental comum (TMC) e elementos relacionados ao trabalho de fisioterapeutas que assistiram pacientes com COVID-19. Métodos Trata-se de um estudo transversal composto por fisioterapeutas de quatro estados do Brasil: Alagoas, Paraíba, Pernambuco e Rio Grande do Norte. As condições de trabalho avaliadas foram tipo de contrato, jornada semanal, tempo de trabalho, satisfação e aspectos psicossociais relacionados ao trabalho. A avaliação do TMC foi realizada por meio do Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20). Resultados Um total de 288 fisioterapeutas responderam ao formulário eletrônico, dos quais 76,2% tinham TMC. Medo de reinfecção (OR 2,75, IC 95%: 1,35-5,63) e infecção anterior por COVID-19 (OR: 2,03, IC 95%: 1,09-3,78) foram fatores relacionados a uma maior chance de risco de TMC. No entanto aqueles que relataram estarem satisfeitos com o trabalho (OR: 0,28, IC 95% 0,11-0,72) e os que tinham até 30 anos (OR: 0,46, IC 95% 0,24-0,88) tiveram menor chance de risco de TMC. Conclusão Os fisioterapeutas apresentaram maior prevalência de TMC. Medo de reinfecção e infecção prévia por COVID-19 foram considerados fatores de risco para TMC, enquanto a satisfação com o trabalho e ter mais que 30 anos foram fatores protetores ao TMC.
