Special education for students with autism during the COVID-19 pandemic: Each day brings new challenges

Sarah Hurwitz et al.

Summary: The study examined how special education teachers adapted practices to support students with autism spectrum disorder in response to pandemic conditions. Educators emphasized the importance of collaboration with parents, adjusted Individualized Education Programs by adding contingency learning plans, and sometimes eliminated social goals to meet the complex needs of students during the COVID-19 crisis. Despite challenges, educators showed remarkable resilience and innovation in adapting instruction.

Healthcare Workers and COVID-19-Related Moral Injury: An Interpersonally-Focused Approach Informed by PTSD

Andrea M. D'Alessandro et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has raised novel moral and ethical challenges for healthcare workers, increasing their risk of moral injury. However, there is a lack of empirical data on how to prevent and treat COVID-19-related moral injury. This article explores the role of social and interpersonal factors in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and suggests interventions for COVID-19-related moral injury in healthcare workers based on social support, social acknowledgment, and social exclusion. It also provides individual and organizational considerations to prevent moral injury in healthcare workers during the pandemic.

Ashraf Rouhbakhsh et al.

Summary: Health care professionals in Iran experienced a wide range of psychological reactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, including anxiety, guilt, depression, and anger. Uncertainty and lack of crisis management preparedness were identified as the two main sources of stress among health care professionals. It is important to assess the mental health needs of healthcare workers and improve equipment and crisis management simultaneously to reduce stress in COVID-19 care centers.

Theresa Halms et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has placed a significant burden on healthcare workers' mental health globally. Guidelines and recommendations to support healthcare workers during this pandemic have been published, but there is a lack of empirical evidence supporting these recommendations and involvement of different target groups and stakeholders. Strategies to identify potential barriers and implement these guidelines in clinical practice are also lacking.

The impact of COVID-19 related educational disruption on children and adolescents: An interim data summary and commentary on ten considerations for neuropsychological practice

Mary K. (Molly) Colvin et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented educational disruptions, particularly affecting students at risk for educational disparities, with attenuated learning gains and increased mental and physical health challenges. Normative data collected prior to the pandemic may be insufficient for interpreting scores, and evaluation and treatment may face delays due to increased demand and backlog.

Scaling Up Global Mental Health Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic and Beyond

Frances Adiukwu et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, global healthcare systems were unprepared to address the increasing mental health problems, especially in low- and middle-income countries, resulting in treatment gaps. To bridge these gaps globally, task shifting and telepsychiatry should be made available and maximized, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Task shifting to nonspecialist health workers has become the most viable strategy to improve essential mental health coverage and efficient use of available resources and technology.

Polyvagal Theory: A Science of Safety

Stephen W. Porges

Summary: Contemporary strategies for health and wellbeing fail to recognize the importance of feelings of safety, which are regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Polyvagal Theory provides a scientific perspective to study feelings of safety by understanding the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology involved. This theory identifies neural circuits that promote feelings of safety and support interpersonal interactions. By studying neural development and phylogeny, foundational principles and mechanisms can be extracted to enhance health, sociality, and productivity. Respecting the biological imperative of feeling safe can lead to a focus on promoting opportunities for safety and co-regulation in societal institutions.

Chan-Young Kwon et al.

Summary: This systematic review investigates the role of mind-body modalities (MBMs) in managing the mental health of healthcare workers (HCWs) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results show that MBMs significantly improved the perceived stress of HCWs and had positive effects on various psychological issues, quality of life, and well-being. However, further high-quality clinical trials are needed due to the limitations of the included studies.

Single Slow-Paced Breathing Session at Six Cycles per Minute: Investigation of Dose-Response Relationship on Cardiac Vagal Activity

Min You et al.

Summary: The practice of slow-paced breathing has been shown to increase cardiac vagal activity, decrease symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, and increase well-being. Session duration may influence the spontaneous respiratory frequency, potentially contributing to additional relaxation effects during and after slow-paced breathing exercises.

Mental Health of Children and Adolescents Amidst COVID-19 and Past Pandemics: A Rapid Systematic Review

Salima Meherali et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic and associated public health measures have had a significant impact on the mental health of children and adolescents, leading to increased stress, worry, and behavioral problems. Interventions such as art-based programs, support services, and clinician-led mental health services have been shown to effectively decrease mental health issues among children and adolescents. Monitoring the impact of the pandemic on young people's mental health and developing tailored strategies to improve outcomes are crucial for addressing long-term consequences.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Mental Health Problems Among Healthcare Workers During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Qinjian Hao et al.

Summary: This meta-analysis summarized the prevalence and risk factors of mental health problems among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The prevalence of depression, anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress symptoms, phobia, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and somatization symptoms was found to be relatively high, with female and nurses showing a higher prevalence of depression and anxiety. Frontline healthcare workers had a higher prevalence of anxiety and a lower prevalence of depression than second-line workers, with a higher proportion of moderate-severe depression and anxiety among frontline workers. Recommendations include focusing on high-risk healthcare workers, taking mental health problems seriously, and implementing timely screening and appropriate intervention.

Summary: The study identified four main themes that impact on the effectiveness of key workers' service provision, which are Engagement with the workplace, Engagement with clients, Professional capacity and Staff Wellbeing. These findings align with previous studies and provide new insights into key workers' lack of confidence in addressing parental mental health issues, despite operating under a family-centred approach.
