مقدمه: افسردگی یکی از اختلالات شایع خلقی در بیشتر جوامع بشری است که موجب افت قابل ملاحظه در عملکرد شغلی، تحصیلی، اجتماعی و یا خانوادگی می‌شود. این پژوهش با هدف تعیین میزان افسردگی و تأثیر آن بر عملکرد بهورزان دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان در سال 1392 انجام گرفت.روش‌ها: این مطالعه‌‌ی توصیفی- تحلیلی از نوع همبستگی بود که در آن تعداد 297 نفر از بهورزان شاغل در خانه‌های بهداشت دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اصفهان، به روش نمونه‌گیری سیستماتیک انتخاب شدند. برای اندازه‌گیری میزان افسردگی از پرسش‌نامه‌ی PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9) استفاده گردید و عملکرد بهورزان مورد مطالعه نیز توسط مربیان مرکز آموزش بهورزی با استفاده ازچک‌لیست‌های تهیه شده در واحد آموزش بهورزی سنجیده شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از آزمون‌های همبستگی Pearson و Spearman، Independent t و One-way ANOVA مورد تجزیه و تحلیل آماری قرار گرفت.یافته‌ها: شیوع افسردگی در بهورزان مورد مطالعه، 9/53 درصد بود. 6/26 درصد دارای افسردگی خفیف، 8/11 درصد افسردگی متوسط و 5/16 درصد دارای افسردگی شدید تا بسیار شدید بودند. افسردگی در بهورزان زن نسبت به بهورزان مرد شیوع بالاتری داشت. ارتباط افسردگی با سن، سابقه‌ی کار و نوع سکونت معنی‌دار بود (050/0 > P). عملکرد بهورزان با شدت افسردگی آن‌ها رابطه‌ی معکوس داشت (050/0 > P). همچنین، سطح تحصیلات بهورزان با افسردگی رابطه‌ی معکوس و با عملکرد رابطه‌ی مستقیم داشت.نتیجه‌گیری: شیوع افسردگی در بهورزان بالا است و این افسردگی، بر روی عملکرد آن‌ها نیز تأثیر دارد. برنامه‌ریزی برای کاهش افسردگی در آنان نقش مهمی در ارتقای برنامه‌های سلامت ایفا می‌نماید.

This research aimed to determine the depression rate and its impact on the health workers’ performance in Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Iran, in 2013.Methods: In this descriptive-analytic study of correlation type, 297 health workers in health care homes of Isfahan University of Medical Science were selected via systematic sampling. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to measure the depression rate, and the health workers’ performance was evaluated by the trainers of health training center using a checklist provided in health training unit. The findings were statistically analyzed using Pearson and Spearman correlation, independent t, and one-way ANOVA tests.Findings: The prevalence of depression was 53.9% in the selected health workers; 26.6% had mild, 11.8% had moderate, and 16.5% had severe or extremely severe depression. Depression showed a higher rate in female health workers compared to males. There was a significant relationship between depression and age, work experience, and residential type (P < 0.050). Health workers’ performance had an inverse relationship with depression severity (P < 0.050). Moreover, the level of health workers’ education had an inverse relationship with depression and a direct relationship with performance.Conclusion: Health workers suffer from high rate of depression, and it has an impact on their performance; planning to reduce their depression plays an important role in health promotion programs.
