Resumen
Objetivo: Describir la prevalencia de ansiedad en estudiantes de medicina en Brasil. Revisión bibliográfica: La ansiedad se define como el miedo patológico a eventos futuros, es decir, aquellos que están más allá de la capacidad de control del individuo, ya que sólo se puede interferir con las acciones en algo que sucede en el momento presente. Además, en la ansiedad generalizada, este miedo no tiene como foco un único objeto, sino múltiples temas que aportan más complejidad al cuadro. En los subtipos de trastornos de ansiedad existe una dirección más específica de la emoción, como la agorafobia (cuya preocupación se centra en la aversión a los lugares abiertos) o la ansiedad por separación (cuyo sufrimiento proviene de la idea de separación entre el individuo afectado y algo o alguien). Consideraciones finales: Al iniciar su camino universitario, los estudiantes de medicina se ven sometidos a nuevos desafíos que pueden llevarlos al agotamiento emocional, volviéndolos susceptibles al surgimiento o empeoramiento de la ansiedad. Así, se observó que el estado de salud mental está directamente asociado con aspectos como la presencia o ausencia de resiliencia, motivación, estrategias de aprendizaje y posibilidades de abandono.
