Abstract

Abstract: Throughout these last 3 years we have seen how the world has changed rapidly as a result ofthe health crisis we have faced. The results in the world have been devastating; not only on a healthy level, but also on an economic, social, political and psychological level. In particular, we can see how many people have suffered during these years asa result of the difficulties caused by the pandemic (such as isolation or fear) and their mental health has been diminished. This research sought to determine and analyze the mental health status of doctors (health personnel) in hospitals and private organizations in the city of Guayaquil -Ecuador, since they are the ones who are at the forefront fighting the health crisis and who are most exposed to the difficulties mentioned. In this research we can observe that, regardless of the difficulties mentioned, the levels of burnout syndrome reflected low exhaustion, stress, anxiety and depression were identified at mild levels, perception and psychological flexibility were low, and the difficult to sleep wasn ttoo big.
