Sumario:Objectives: To review the scientific evidence on the impact of health personnel spirituality during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology: Narrative and documentary literature review. Eight research studies were obtained from the Scopus, Scielo, PubMed and Web of Science databases. The spirituality variable was evaluated in health personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2022). Results: It was found that spirituality becomes a determining factor that helps to prevent and avoid the appearance of chronic and acute anxiety. Likewise, spirituality is perceived as a source of coping and stress reducer, associating it with the highest level of resilience whose effect on the recovery of emotional and mental health together with its coping in critical events is of great importance. Of the eight studies found, two of them evaluated spirituality with the FACIT-SP scale. There is little research on spirituality in health personnel whose characteristics could be adapted to other cultural and linguistic contexts. Conclusions: Spirituality is protective and leads to behaviors of greater resilience, its effects on the recovery of emotional and mental health, and its coping in critical events is very valuable, being important to promote its institutional application.
