Objective To explore the anxiety, depression, mania and related factors of suspected patients with imported COVID-19 during isolation screening. Methods 126 cases of imported COVID-19 isolated and screened in the observation wards of the Infectious Department of our hospital from December 31, 2021 to March 1, 2023 were selected as the research objects. The demographic characteristics, where they came from, income status, payment methods of observation fees, sleep quality, stress level, and social support were collected. The emotional status of patients was assessed with Hamilton Anxiety Scale, Hamilton Depression Scale, and Mania Scale. Logistic stepwise regression was used to statistically analyze the factors affecting the emotional status of anxiety, depression, and mania. Results The incidence of anxiety was the highest (46.03%), followed by depression (31.75%) and mania (22.22%) among the 126 suspected cases of imported COVID-19. According to logistic stepwise regression analysis, having children, accompanied by fever symptoms, and accompanied by cough symptoms are risk factors for the occurrence of anxiety (P<0.05), while a high Pittsburgh sleep score is a protective factor for the occurrence of anxiety and depression (P<0.05). The occurrence of manic mood was not significantly correlated with various factors (P>0.05). Conclusion Fever and cough, as the prominent symptoms of COVID-19, are the direct influencing factors that affect patients anxiety and depression, and improving patients sleep quality may help to alleviate patients anxiety and depression.
