Abstract
Objetivos: El objetivo de este trabajo es determinar la proporción de ansiedad en estudiantes españoles de medicina durante la pandemia de COVID-19. Metodología: 31estudiantes del grado de medicina de una universidad española contestaron un cuestionario on-line en abril del 2020. La escala GAD-7 se utilizó para evaluar sintomatología ansiosa autorreportada, y se utilizaron los puntos de corte para clasificarlos en ansiedad probable.Resultados: El 64,5% de la muestra presentó ansiedad, siendo más prevalente entre mujeres y los más jóvenes. Conclusiones: La prevalencia de ansiedad en la muestra analizada sugiere la necesidad de evaluar sintomatología ansiosa entre los estudiantes de medicina durante la pandemia de COVID-19 y establecer programas de apoyo psicológico adecuados. Estudios epidemiológicos futuros con muestras amplias y representativas se hacen necesarios para hacer un seguimiento de la salud mental de este colectivo
