Objective: Adolescents with COVID-19 are usually asymptomatic or they have milder symptoms, but the psychological effects of the disease on adolescents is unknown. In our knowledge, to date no published studies have evaluated the anxiety status of adolescents with COVID-19 infection. In this study, we aimed to investigate the anxiety status of adolescents with COVID-19.
Material and Methods: Eighteen adolescents hospitalized with moderate symptoms of COVID-19 and seventeen adolescents non hospitalized with mild symptoms of COVID-19 and 29 healthy adolescents were enrolled in the study. The State and Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire was performed to both groups and scores were compared.
Results: The adolescents with COVID-19 had significantly higher anxiety scores in the State Anxiety Inventory (SAI) (p:0.019) and the Trait Anxiety Inventory (TAI) (p:0.048) than healthy adolescents. Comparison of adolescents with mild and moderate symptoms showed no significant difference both in SAI (p:1.0) and TAI (p:0.98) scores.
Conclusion: COVID-19 has a psychological impact on adolescents causing higher anxiety scores independent from the disease severity.

Amaç: COVİD-19’lu adolesanlar genellikle asemptomatiktir ya da hafif belirtiler gösterirler ancak hastalığın adolesanlar üzerindeki psikolojik etkileri bilinmemektedir. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla şu ana kadar COVİD-19’lu adolesanların kaygı düzeyleri değerlendirilmemiştir. Bu çalışmada COVİD-19’lu adolesanların kaygı durumlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: COVİD-19 nedeniyle orta düzeyde semptom gösteren ve hastaneye yatan 18 adolesan, hafif semptom gösteren hastaneye yatmayan 17 adolesan ve 29 sağlıklı adolesan çalışmaya dahil edildi. Durumluluk sürekli kaygı ölçeği (STAI) anketi tüm gruplara uygulandı ve kaygı skorları karşılaştırıldı.
Bulgular: COVİD-19’lu adolesanların durumluluk kaygı ölçeği (SAI) (p:0.019) ve sürekli kaygı ölçeği (TAI) (p:0.048) skorları sağlıklı adolesanlara göre anlamlı yüksek saptandı. Hafif ve orta semptomlu adolesanların SAI (p:1.0) ve TAI (p:0.98) skorları karşılaştırmasında anlamlı fark saptanmadı.
Sonuç: COVİD-19’un adolesanlar üzerinde hastalık şiddetinden bağımsız olarak kaygı arttıran psikolojik bir etkisi vardır.
