<p>Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan City, China. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a multivariate analysis method to determine the structural relationship between measured variables. This observational study aimed to use SEM to determine the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 in January and February 2020 in Wuhan, China.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Material/Methods</title>
<p>A one-month cross-sectional observational study included 180 medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 infection. Levels of anxiety, self-efficacy, stress, sleep quality, and social support were measured using the and the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Stanford Acute Stress Reaction (SASR) questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), respectively. Pearson’s correlation analysis and SEM identified the interactions between these factors.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p>Levels of social support for medical staff were significantly associated with self-efficacy and sleep quality and negatively associated with the degree of anxiety and stress. Levels of anxiety were significantly associated with the levels of stress, which negatively impacted self-efficacy and sleep quality. Anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy were mediating variables associated with social support and sleep quality.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>SEM showed that medical staff in China who were treating patients with COVID-19 infection during January and February 2020 had levels of anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy that were dependent on sleep quality and social support.</p>

<abstract><sec><title>Background</title>
<p>Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan City, China. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a multivariate analysis method to determine the structural relationship between measured variables. This observational study aimed to use SEM to determine the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 in January and February 2020 in Wuhan, China.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Material/Methods</title>
<p>A one-month cross-sectional observational study included 180 medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 infection. Levels of anxiety, self-efficacy, stress, sleep quality, and social support were measured using the and the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Stanford Acute Stress Reaction (SASR) questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), respectively. Pearson’s correlation analysis and SEM identified the interactions between these factors.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p>Levels of social support for medical staff were significantly associated with self-efficacy and sleep quality and negatively associated with the degree of anxiety and stress. Levels of anxiety were significantly associated with the levels of stress, which negatively impacted self-efficacy and sleep quality. Anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy were mediating variables associated with social support and sleep quality.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>SEM showed that medical staff in China who were treating patients with COVID-19 infection during January and February 2020 had levels of anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy that were dependent on sleep quality and social support.</p>

<body><sec><title>Background</title>
<p>Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan City in central China [<xref rid="b1-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
,<xref rid="b2-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. From the end of December 2019, COVID-19 began to spread rapidly throughout Hubei Province and other areas in China [<xref rid="b2-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,<xref rid="b3-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
]. As of February 18<sup>th</sup>
, 2020, more than 72,500 people had been diagnosed with COVID-19 in China, and more than 1,800 patients had died from this new viral infection, mainly from pneumonia and other respiratory complications [<xref rid="b3-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
].</p>
<p>From December 2019, medical staff in Wuhan, China, were working with an increased workload and at risk of infection to treat patients with COVID-19 infection. Up to February 18<sup>th</sup>
, more than 30,000 doctors and nurses from other provinces in China arrived in Hubei Province to assist in the treatment of patients. Local and national medical staff worked in isolation wards, fever clinics, the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and other related departments. Some medical staff became infected with COVID-19 when they were treating infected patients. Chinese medical staff have shown professionalism and care, but the physical and psychological health of medical staff is at risk when working under such conditions, and anxiety and stress can also adversely affect sleep.</p>
<p>Previous studies have shown that survivors of acute infectious diseases, such as SARS, can lead to anxiety, depression, stress, and posttraumatic stress disorder [<xref rid="b4-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
–<xref rid="b6-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
]. However, there have been few studies on the physical and psychological effects of outbreaks of serious infectious diseases on the medical staff, particularly when associated with increased workload and the stress associated with the risk of infection.</p>
<p>Sleep quality is a key indicator of health. For clinical staff, good sleep quality not only helps them to work better to treat patients but also maintains optimal immune function to prevent infection [<xref rid="b7-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
]. Therefore, sleep quality is an important indicator of health. Also, psychological wellbeing and sleep are affected by many socio-cultural factors [<xref rid="b8-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. Social support is a significant social factor. Social support refers to the care and support that people feel they get from other people [<xref rid="b9-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
]. Adequate social support has previously been reported to have a positive effect on psychological health and sleep function [<xref rid="b10-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
,<xref rid="b11-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
]. Also, anxiety is a common negative emotion experienced by medical staff during epidemics of infectious diseases [<xref rid="b12-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. The COVID-19 epidemic has become a stressor, particularly as this is a new viral infection does not have a vaccine and can only be treated symptomatically at present. Self-efficacy refers to individual judgment on the ability to complete a certain behavior or task [<xref rid="b13-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
]. Self-efficacy helps medical staff cope with high-risk and high-intensity work and help them maintain a stable mental state. The effect of emotion such as anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy on sleep quality has been shown by previous studies [<xref rid="b14-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,<xref rid="b15-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
].</p>
<p>These variables of anxiety, self-efficacy, stress, sleep quality, and social support and their interactions can be analyzed by structural equation modeling (SEM), which is a multivariate analysis method to determine the structural relationship between measured variables. Therefore, this observational study, conducted at the Wuhan University School of Medicine, China, aimed to use SEM to determine the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who treated patients with COVID-19 in January and February 2020. The two assumptions made in this observational study were that the social support given to the medical staff directly affected their sleep quality, and that social support affected sleep quality by reducing anxiety and stress and by increasing self-efficacy as intermediate variables.</p>

<sec sec-type="methods"><title>Statistical analysis</title>
<p>Data were presented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD). The chi-squared (χ<sup>2</sup>
) test, Pearson’s correlation analysis, and multivariate analysis using the structural equation model (SEM) with path analysis were used to determine the structural relationship between the measured variables. Data were analyzed using EpiData version 3.1 software (EpiData, Buenos Aires, Argentina) and SAS version 9.4, software (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA), which were used for data entry and analysis. The intermediary effects of the variables were analyzed using IBM SPSS AMOS version 21.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). The bootstrap number was set as 5,000. The significance of the specific intermediary was determined using the nonparametric percentile bootstrap method with deviation correction. Path analysis by the structural equation model (SEM) was performed to measure the associations and their importance. Path analysis included the use of the goodness-of-fit index (GFI), the adjusted goodness-of fit-index (AGFI) the incremental fit index (IFI), the comparative fit index (CFI), the Tucker-Lewis index (TLI), the normed fit index (NFI), and the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA). The structural equation showed and ideal fit (GFI=0.995, CFI=0.995, TLI=0.953, IFI=0.996, NFI=0.991, AGFI=0.931, RMSEA=0.077, χ<sup>2</sup>

<sec><title>Hypothesis-testing using SEM</title>
<p>The two hypotheses tested in this study were hypothesis 1, that the social support given to the medical staff directly affected their sleep quality, and hypothesis 2, that social support affected sleep quality by reducing anxiety and stress and by increasing self-efficacy as intermediate variables. Based on the scores from the self-reported SSRS, SAS, GSES, SASR, and PSQI questionnaires, the results showed that the social support given to the medical staff negatively affected (reduced) their anxiety and stress levels, and positively affected their self-efficacy, but did not directly affect their sleep quality. The levels of staff anxiety significantly affected their levels of stress and significantly reduced their self-efficacy and sleep quality. Therefore, the hypothesis 1 was not supported and hypothesis 2 was confirmed.</p>

<sec sec-type="discussion"><title>Discussion</title>
<p>This study used the structural equation model (SEM) to determine the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who treated patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) [<xref rid="b1-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
–<xref rid="b3-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
] in January and February 2020 in Wuhan, China. The levels of anxiety, self-efficacy, stress, sleep quality, and social support were measured using the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Stanford Acute Stress Reaction (SASR) questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), respectively. The findings from this study showed that the sleep quality of the medical staff was low with a mean PSQI score of 8.583. Compared with the normal Chinese PSQI score of 7 points, the sleep quality of medical staff who treated COVID-19 was relatively low. There were several factors that may have resulted in reduced sleep quality in the medical staff. Doctors and nurses had to wear protective clothing every day, including hazardous materials (HazMat) suits. The staff worked continuously in the isolation wards with high work intensity and under pressure. Also, some of the patients could not be cured, and infection with COVID-19 is associated with patient mortality [<xref rid="b1-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
–<xref rid="b3-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
].</p>
<p>The findings from this study showed that social support of the medical staff did not directly affect their sleep quality, but had an indirect through several paths or steps. Firstly, social support reduces anxiety and stress, and improves self-efficacy. Social support can help medical staff reduce anxiety levels, as friends or family members provide social and emotional support and share empathy [<xref rid="b21-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
]. Social interactions reduce negative emotions such as anxiety and can improve mood [<xref rid="b22-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
]. Currently, with the increase in the number of cases of COVID-19 infection in China, front-line medical staff are required to wear protective masks and protective clothing, which may cause added stress. When medical staff have a wide social network, social support can help to reduce stress by reducing the perception of the threat of stressful events and the physiological response and inappropriate behavior that can result from stress [<xref rid="b23-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]. Social support contributes to improving self-efficacy, leading to more understanding, respect, encouragement, courage, and a sense of professional achievement [<xref rid="b24-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
]. Self-efficacy results in increased confidence to do the job well, and when combined with social support, members of the medical profession suffer less from loneliness and might be more optimistic, which improves coping mechanisms when under stress [<xref rid="b25-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
,<xref rid="b26-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
].</p>
<p>Secondly, the combination of anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy of medical staff act on their sleep quality. Anxiety affects sleep quality because anxious people often find it difficult to fall asleep and may wake up frequently during sleep [<xref rid="b27-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
]. Also, the combination of anxiety with sleep disorders may make it difficult to fall asleep [<xref rid="b28-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
]. The fact that stress is closely related to sleep quality has been confirmed by a previous study [<xref rid="b29-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
]. Increased stress can increase the levels of vigilance regarding the environment, which will reduce sleep quality [<xref rid="b30-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
]. However, self-efficacy is a positive mental state that may enhance sleep quality [<xref rid="b31-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>
]. People with high self-efficacy can maintain relatively stable emotions even under pressure, and they may experience fewer episodes of night waking, sleep anxiety, and sleep onset delay [<xref rid="b32-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
]. Self-efficacy also increases concentration and self-control [<xref rid="b33-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
]. Even though all medical staff experience pressure at work, people who have high self-efficacy are able to control their emotions and try to sleep regularly after work. Therefore, with high self-efficacy, medical staff may have good sleep quality. Anxiety has been shown to increase sensitivity to work pressure and the working environment and has a negative effect on self-efficacy because it reduces positive behaviors and initiative [<xref rid="b34-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>
,<xref rid="b35-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
].</p>
<p>The findings from this study may provide support for the implementation of measures to improve the social support of medical staff during increased demands associated with COVID-19 infection at this time. For example, professional psychotherapy teams should take the initiative to support the mental health of medical staff and provide individually targeted interventions. Hospital managers should provide logistic support for medical staff, and support groups for medical staff should be established. However, this study had several limitations. Firstly, this was a cross-sectional study with a small sample size, and definitive causal relationships remain to be established. For example, anxiety may increase stress, and stress may increase anxiety [<xref rid="b36-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
]. However, anxiety has been shown to result in impaired sleep, and poor sleep quality increases anxiety [<xref rid="b37-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
]. Therefore, cohort studies with larger samples are needed to investigate the effects of social support on sleep quality and function of medical staff who are working with increased levels of stress and increased workloads, as with the COVID-19 infection epidemic in Wuhan, China. Also, this study used subjective self-reported questionnaires to obtain the data. Future studies should include objective indicators of stress, such as measurements of serum cortisol level with the questionnaire [<xref rid="b38-medscimonit-26-e923549" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
].</p>
