Resumen

Se ha realizado una revisión sistemática centrándonos concretamente en el impacto psicológico de la pandemia causada por Covid-19 a deportistas profesionales, con relación a los tres síndromes más frecuentes en la población: Estrés, depresión y ansiedad. Tras la búsqueda sistemática se incluyeron 15 artículos, realizados en el periodo de pandemia. Tanto de deportes individuales como colectivos; hombres y mujeres; así como de 10 países distintos de Europa y Asia. Las mujeres presentaban respuestas más altas de estrés, ansiedad y depresión. También que los deportistas veteranos tenían menos síntomas que los novatos, posiblemente asociado a un correcto uso de las estrategias de afrontamiento. Por ello se ofrecieron posibles soluciones y recomendaciones para tener en cuenta a modo de conclusiones, como crear protocolos de bienestar o trabajar dichas estrategias. Tener en cuenta los aspectos en relación con el futuro de este estudio permite considerar la afectación que el Covid-19 ha podido tener en los deportistas de cara a un rendimiento posterior y la necesidad de adaptar, trabajar, así como mejorar los aspectos que se hayan presentado en este tiempo como una limitación.
