Итог:Introduction: The disease produced by the SARS-CoV-2, the COVID-19, had a major impact worldwide and the health system was one of the most affected, including services that provide mental health care. Objective: To know the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health care. Methods: An analysis of the existing literature on Scopus, Lilacs and Pubmed databases was carried out. Also, full scientific publications from indexed journals in Spanish and English, with adult patients (>17 years), and original works with an analytical, prospective, cross-sectional, randomized, meta-analysis, and free access design were included. Results: Eleven articles were included, describing a reduction in emergency visits and an increase in substance use or suicide attempts. Strategies such as tele-psychiatry, education to the population and distance measures were implemented. Conclusions: It was concluded that it is possible to provide psychiatric care in times of pandemic, taking into account various prevention measures and reorganization of services.
