información científica que se incrementa constantemente, en gran porcentaje se centra en los aspectos genéticos, patológicos y epidemiológicos del virus, pero en menor proporción se enfoca en los posibles efectos en la salud mental. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo transversal realizado en 498 estudiantes en una entidad de educación superior. La herramienta de recolección de datos fue Google Forms y los instrumentos aplicados fueron: Escala de Trastorno de Ansiedad Generalizada (GAD-7), El Cuestionario PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9) y el Índice de Severidad del Insomnio (ISI). Resultados: Los resultados arrojados con la aplicación de la escala GAD-7 reportó que el 31% presentó ansiedad leve, el 20% ansiedad moderada y el 11% ansiedad severa. El 38% de los estudiantes no presentaron importancia clínica. Conclusiones: De acuerdo con la evidencia revisada se ha demostrado que durante la tercera fase de la pandemia por COVID-19, fue común la presencia de ansiedad, insomnio y depresión en estudiantes de 18-25 años de una universidad privada.
The crisis that was tackled during the SARS-Cov2 pandemic has generated a big impact in the mental health of many people, especially in young adults. Even though we have the data and the scientific information that increases constantly, a great percentage of this is focused on the genetic, pathologic, and epidemiologic aspects of the virus, but a very small proportion focuses on the possible effects it can have on mental health. Methods: It is a descriptive transversal study, applied to 498 students in a higher education facility. The tool used for data recollection was Google Forms and the instruments applied were the Generalized Anxiety Disorder assessment (GAD-7), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHG-9) and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). Results: The results obtained with the use of the GAD-7 assessment reported that a 31% had mild anxiety, a 20% moderate anxiety and 11% severe anxiety. 38% of the students did not pose results of clinical importance. Conclusions: According to the evidence obtained it can be indicated that during the third phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, the presence of anxiety, insomnia and depression was common in students of 18 to 25 years of age from a private university.
