ABSTRACTBackground: Novel Coronavirus infectious disease has become one of the major health crises of the new generation. Nurses play an important role in providing medical services to manage and reduce infectious diseases. Admission of a large number of patients with COVID-19 in the hospitals has led to an increased demand for medical attention and care services from nurses and physicians in the community; Treatment staff themselves experience significant psychological changes during the patient care period. The role of nurses goes beyond patient care. Nurses around the world are struggling with the impact of Corona on their lives, their families, and in addition the demands of long working hours and concerns about workplace safety.Aim: To investigate the relationship between resilience and the anxiety of corona disease (COVID-19) in nurses of Ali Asghar Children's Hospital in Tehran, in 2020.Methods: This research is a cross-sectional study. The statistical population of the research includes 100 nurses of Hazrat Ali Asghar Hospital in Tehran, in 2020. A Census sampling method was applied to select the statistical population and the nurses filled different parts of a questionnaire about the resilience and anxiety of Coronavirus disease. The five-point Likert scale was used for this study. SPSS version 24 was used to analyze the data. Also, the Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to determine the correlation between resilience and anxiety of Corona disease.Data analysis: Since sig is greater than 0.05, the null hypothesis is confirmed and there is no significant correlation between resilience scale and Coronavirus infection anxiety. Also, the coefficient of this correlation is 0.018 for 100 samples, which indicates a weak correlation. Considering the mean of all variables, it could be concluded that there was a significant relationship between the characteristics of demographic factors and the resilience and Coronavirus disease anxiety, which means that factors such as gender, age, etc. affect the anxiety of COVID-19 and resilience.Conclusion: Considering that Hazrat Ali Asghar Hospital is a children's hospital and has a smaller number of children with Corona disease, nurses in children's hospitals are less prone to the anxiety of Corona disease. The results showed that there is no significant correlation between these two variables. In fact, the obtained correlation coefficient, which shows the number 0.018, indicates a weak correlation. According to nurses, when there is no clear solution to problems, sometimes God and destiny help people. They rely on God first of all. For most of them, coping with stress makes them stronger.
