abstract = {Nurses and physicians in hospitals are particularly
affected by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic as shown in
the high prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder
(PTSD). To handle the urgent and high demand for
psychological support, PTSD-related interventions had to be
applied rapidly. Thus, interventions that were already
evidence-based were adapted to pandemic conditions, or new
interventions were developed. To implement these
interventions sustainably, and be prepared for future
disease outbreaks, we need to identify which strategies are
necessary for the successful implementation. From this
perspective, four years after the COVID-19 outbreak, we
address the following: What are the [1] interventions that
address symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder in
hospital-based nurses and physicians during the COVID-19
pandemic? What are the [2] implementation strategies for the
identified interventions?We used a scoping review approach
and conducted a literature search from February to April
2023 in PubMed, PsychINFO and CINHAL. Primary studies
(protocols) and concept papers focused on PTSD-related
interventions for nurses and physicians and their
implementation in hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic,
and published between 2020 and 2023 were included. Data
extraction and analysis were performed in MaxQDA using
deductive content analysis based on the (a) template for
intervention description and replication (TIDieR) and the
(b) Expert recommendations for implementing change (ERIC)
framework.A total of 16 interventions were adapted or
developed world wide during the COVID-19 pandemic between
2020 and 2023. Evidence of effectiveness exist in only six
of the 16 interventions. Most of them were designed using
digital approaches and were primarly delivered through
iterative implementation cycles, whereas the implementation
of face-to-face interventions focused on interactions with
various stakeholders.Our findings can be used to support the
implementation of PTSD-related interventions for nurses and
physicians in hospitals under pandemic conditions. Future
research should focus on evaluating the effectiveness of
these interventions and identifying strategies for a
beneficial and sustainable implementation.},
