BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a great impact on every aspect of society. All countries launched preventive measures such as quarantine, lockdown, and physical distancing to control the disease spread. These restrictions might effect on daily life and mental health. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of depressive symptoms in patients with COVID-19 at the Treatment Center. METHODS: A cross-sectional telephone survey was carried out at Hmawbi COVID-19 Treatment Center, Myanmar from December 2020 to January 2021. A total of 142 patients with COVID-19 who met the criteria were invited to participate in the study. A pre-tested Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used as a tool for depressive symptoms assessment. Data were analyzed by using binary logistic regression to identify associated factors of depressive symptoms. Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was computed to determine the level of significance with a p < 0.05. RESULTS: The prevalence of depressive symptoms in patients with COVID-19 was 38.7%, with the means (+/- standard deviation, SD) subscale of somatic symptom, negative effect, and anhedonia were 4.64 (+/-2.53), 2.51 (+/- 2.12), and 5.01 (+/- 3.26), respectively. The patients with 40 years and older (AOR: 2.99, 95% CI: 1.36-6.59), < 4 of household size (AOR: 3.45, 95% CI: 1.46-8.15), = 400,000 kyats of monthly family income (AOR: 2.38, 95% CI: 1.02-5.54) and infection to family members (AOR: 4.18, 95% CI: 1.74-10.07) were significant associated factors of depressive symptoms. CONCLUSION: The high prevalence of depressive symptoms, approximately 40%, was found in patients with COVID-19 in the Treatment Center. Establishments of psychosocial supports, providing psychoeducation, enhancing the social contact with family and friends, and using credible source of information related COVID-19 would be integral parts of mental health services in COVID-19 pandemic situation.
