Objective To systematically evaluate the influencing factors of disaster resilience for medical rescue workers. Methods PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, APA PsycInfo, EMbase, Scopus, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the influencing factors of disaster resilience for medical rescue workers from inception to November 1, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata 16.0 software. Results A total of 36 studies involving 7 974 medical rescue workers were included. The meta-analysis results showed that personal influencing factors, including active coping, rescue confidence, disaster preparedness, knowledge attainment, physical health, and exercise were positively correlated with the disaster resilience of healthcare workers. However, depression, anxiety, stress, and a history of mental illness were negatively related to the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers. Environmental and background factors, including social support, relief supplies, disaster training, economic condition, rescue experience, length of service, and technical title, were positively correlated with the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers. Conclusion Current evidence shows that the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers is affected by a variety of personal factors and environmental/background factors. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
