    Objective To estimate the prevalence of depression and abuse and identify the associated factors in medical interns in Peruvian hospitals. Methods We conducted a multicentre, cross-sectional and analytical study during the months of March to May 2016. We included medical interns from 18 Peruvian hospitals, in Lima and provinces. We used a survey that included sociodemographic data and a scale to measure the perception of abuse (psychological, physical and sexual). In addition, we used the Spanish version of the PHQ-9 to evaluate depression. We used Poisson regression with robust variances to calculate prevalence ratios (PRs). Results A total of 402 medical interns participated in the study, the median age was 25 [IQR: 21-33], and 52.7% were male. Moreover, 25.4% of them suffered from depression. In the adjusted model, the variables associated with depression were age (PRa=1.15), the number of hours they sleep per day (PRa=1.23), being a woman (PRa=3.33), performing the internship in a province (PRa=0.25), studying at a public university (PRa=0.64), living with parents (PRa=0.65) or alone (PRa=0.33), and having perceived some type of abuse (PRa=1.07). Conclusions A quarter of surveyed medical interns had depression. Early screening is necessary to identify perceived abuse and other triggering depression factors that may adversely affect work performance and overall mental health during medical internships.

    The quality of sleep refers to the fact that we sleep well at night and daytime functioning. Thus, influences health and quality of life. Sleep loss is one of the most striking problem of modern society especially in medical students. This is related to the constant academic demands causing mental health problems and high levels of stress. Methods: A cross-sectional study. We evaluated 1,040 medical students in 8 universities of Peru from the first to the sixth year of study. Of these, 892 surveys were used. Mental health were evaluated according to the scale of Depression, Anxiety and Stress (DASS-21) and "poor sleepers" students were established with a score 5 according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: It was found that 693 (77.69%) students were poor sleepers. About mental health was found that 290 (32.51%) suffered from depression, 472 (52.91%) of anxiety and 309 (34.64%) stress. A significant association (p < 0.05) was found between poor sleep quality and female sex (OR = 1.13, CI = 1.05 to 1.21); depression (OR = 1.23, CI = 1,15-1,31); anxiety (OR = 1.32, CI = 1.23 to 1.43); and stress (OR = 1.26, CI = 1.19 to 1.35). Conclusion: We observed a high frequency of poor sleepers in medical students from eight universities of Peru. The poor quality of sleep was associated with anxiety, depression and stress in students of second and third year, respectively.

    Introducción: El internado de medicina es una etapa hospitalaria donde el maltrato podría afectar negativamente el desempeño del estudiante. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar las características y factores asociados a la percepción de maltrato en internos de medicina del Perú. Materiales y métodos: Estudio multicéntrico, transversal y analítico. Se encuestaron a internos de medicina de dieciocho hospitales del Perú. Se aplicó una encuesta que incluían características sociodemográficas y una escala que media la percepción de maltrato psicológico, físico y sexual. Se realizaron modelos lineales generalizados y se estimaron razones de prevalencia crudas y ajustadas (RPa) con intervalos de confianza al 95%. Resultados: Participaron 418 internos de medicina. El maltrato psicológico, físico y sexual percibido fue de 91,9%; 55,5% y 34%, respectivamente. Los factores asociados con maltrato psicológico fueron realizar rotación en cirugía (RPa:1,09; IC95%:1,00-1,20) proceder de una universidad privada (RPa:1,08; IC95%:1,02-1,15) y estar en un hospital del Ministerio de Salud (MINSA) (RPa:1,08; IC95%:1,01-1,16). Respecto al maltrato físico fueron proceder de una universidad privada (RPa:0,77; IC95%:0,64-0,92) y estar en un hospital del MINSA (RPa:0,72; IC95%:0,55-0,94). Los factores asociados al maltrato sexual fueron ser mujer (RPa:1,52; IC95%:1,15-2,01) y rotar en medicina (RPa:1,52; IC95%:1,04-2,23). Conclusiones: El maltrato percibido por los internos es alto siendo al maltrato psicológico el más frecuente. El maltrato físico y psicológico tuvo asociación con la rotación en los servicios, proceder de una universidad privada y realizar el internado en hospitales MINSA. El maltrato sexual estuvo asociación con ser mujer y la rotación en el servicio de medicina.
