| Abstract | Background: The psychological consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as fear of the virus, depression, anxiety, and quarantine fatigue, have become some of the most significant societal challenges of the 21st century due to the widespread nature of the disease. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the predictive roles of fear of COVID-19, symptoms of depression, and coronavirus-related anxiety in quarantine fatigue among patients with congenital heart disease. Methods: The research utilized a descriptive-correlational design. The statistical population comprised all patients with congenital heart disease referred to Shahid Rajaei hospitals and (X-Country) Heart Center. A total of 105 patients were selected using a convenience sampling method. Data collection tools included the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS), the COVID-19 Fear Scale, the Depression Scale (DS), and the Quarantine Fatigue Scale. Pearson's correlation and multiple regression analyses were employed to analyze the data. Results: The findings revealed significant correlations between fear of COVID-19 (r = 0.52), coronavirus anxiety (r = 0.46), and depression symptoms (r = 0.61) with quarantine fatigue in patients with congenital heart disease (P < 0.01). Conclusions: This study demonstrates that fear of COVID-19, depression, and coronavirus-related anxiety are significant predictors of quarantine fatigue. Interventions focused on addressing the psychological impacts of COVID-19—such as reducing depression, anxiety, and fear—can yield positive outcomes. Such programs can serve as preventative measures to help individuals manage the quarantine fatigue associated with the pandemic. | en |
