Abstract

[Objective] To examine the relationship between the Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) score and sociodemographic, health, emotional and behavioural factors, in a cross-sectional observational study in 447 older adults living in long-term care (LTC) settings in Madrid (Spain)., [Methods] The sample was stratified by nursing home ownership, geographical location, and size. Multiple linear regression analysis was used using backward elimination to identify factors that explained associations with fear, and logistic regression models were used to examine its role as a predictor of adherence to preventive measures., [Results] The mean age of the participants was 83.8 years, most were female, had had COVID-19, and were worried about the pandemic. The average score of the FCV-19S was 18.36 (SD: 8.28; range: 7-35), and the variables associated in the multiple linear regression model (explained variance: 34.00%) were being female, lower level of education, satisfaction with life and the residential home, and higher worry about the pandemic. The logistic regression models showed that fear of COVID-19 was a predictor of adherence to preventive measures like wearing facemasks, washing hands, and avoiding physical contact., [Conclusions] Fear of COVID-19 was significantly related with sex and subjective factors as life satisfaction and worry; and it influences older people's preventive behaviour. Interventions aimed at reducing fear and promoting adherence to preventive measures would improve their mental health and well-being.

Abstract

Background During the first epidemic wave, COVID-19 surveillance focused on quantifying the magnitude and the escalation of a growing global health crisis. The scientific community first assessed risk through basic indicators, such as the number of cases or rates of new cases and deaths, and later began using other direct impact indicators to conduct more detailed analyses. We aimed at synthesizing the scientific community's contribution to assessing the direct impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on population health through indicators reported in research papers. Methods We conducted a rapid scoping review to identify and describe health indicators included in articles published between January 2020 and June 2021, using one strategy to search PubMed, EMBASE and WHO COVID-19 databases. Sixteen experts from European public health institutions screened papers and retrieved indicator characteristics. We also asked in an online survey how the health indicators were added to and used in policy documents in Europe. Results After reviewing 3891 records, we selected a final sample of 67 articles and 233 indicators. We identified 52 (22.3%) morbidity indicators from 33 articles, 105 severity indicators (45.1%, 27 articles) and 68 mortality indicators (29.2%, 51). Respondents from 22 countries completed 31 questionnaires, and the majority reported morbidity indicators (29, 93.5%), followed by mortality indicators (26, 83.9%). Conclusions The indicators collated here might be useful to assess the impact of future pandemics. Therefore, their measurement should be standardized to allow for comparisons between settings, countries and different populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: The protection of children is a major driver of behavior among those in charge of their care. We evaluated whether compliance with preventive measures against SARS-CoV-2 infection among adults living with children was different from that of those not living with them, in 2020. Methods: We used the COSMO-SPAIN (N = 867) and the nationally representative ENE-COVID (N = 29,926) surveys to estimate prevalence of compliance (95% confidence interval). Logistic model based standardization methods were applied to estimate standardized prevalence differences (SPrD) to the overall distribution of age, sex, education, history of COVID-19, and residence of other >60 yrs in the household. Results: We observed that adults living with children more frequently avoided bars (SPrDENE-COVID: 4.2%; 95% CI: 2.3-6.1), crowded places (SPrDCOSMO: 8.0%; 95% CI: 0.6-15.1) and did not use public transportation (SPrDENE-COVID: 4.9%; 95% CI: 3.0-6.7). They were also more worried about work and family conciliation (SPrDCOSMO: 12.2%; 95% CI: 4.8-19.5) and about closure of education centers (SPrDCOSMO: 26.5%; 95% CI: 19.4-33.6). Discussion: In general, adults living with children adopted slightly more frequently social distancing measures. IJ was hosted in the National Center of Epidemiology, thanks to a grant of Women for Africa 6th edition, with the contribution of ENDESA. COSMO-SPAIN was funded by Carlos III Health Institute and ENE-COVID was funded by Spanish Ministry of Health, Carlos III Health Institute, and Spanish National Health System. Sí

Abstract

[ES] En la pandemia de COVID-19, tanto el comportamiento individual como el colectivo son determinantes en el control de la propagación de la enfermedad, pero las restricciones adoptadas para atajar esta crisis de salud pública han afectado al bienestar físico y mental de la población. Conocer las percepciones y actitudes de los ciudadanos ayuda a identificar las necesidades de la población y adoptar medidas de respuesta a la pandemia más efectivas y participativas. El estudio COSMO-Spain analiza las preocupaciones, percepciones y actitudes de la población en relación a la pandemia, el grado de adherencia a las medidas preventivas y otras variables relacionadas, como la percepción de riesgo. Este estudio, impulsado por la OMS, se ha realizado desde julio de 2020 cada dos meses, a través de un cuestionario online a muestras representativas de la población española. Los resultados muestran que las actitudes de la población han ido cambiando en el tiempo influenciadas por factores individuales y contextuales. Debido la naturaleza evolutiva de esta pandemia, las campañas de educación y sensibilización deben ser dinámicas y actualizarse continuamente en función de los datos. [EN] Both individual and population behavior are determining factors in controlling the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the restrictions have impacted the mental and physical well-being of citizens, the social cohesion, the economic stability, as well as the community resilience. In this complex scenario, understanding the feelings and attitudes of the population helps us to identify their needs and adopt response measures to control the pandemic in a more consensual and effective way. The COSMO-Spain study explores the concerns, perceptions, and attitudes of the population about the pandemic to find out the acceptance and adherence to behavioral prevention measures, as well as to analyze the citizens’ risk perception, well-being and trust in information sources and institutions. The COSMO-Spain study has been carried out every two months since July 2020, through an online questionnaire to representative cross-sectional samples of the Spanish population, composed by 1000 people each. The results up to December 2021 show that the attitudes of the population are dynamic and evolve over time, influenced not only by individual factors, but also by contextual ones. Due to the changing nature of this pandemic, education and awareness campaigns need to be dynamic and continually updated based on real data. El estudio COSMO-Spain ha sido financiado por el Instituto de Salud Carlos III. Sí

Abstract

Background Following the active ageing model based on the Health, Lifelong Learning, Participation and Security pillars, this research has a twofold objective: i) to classify older adults according to active ageing profiles, taking into account the four pillars, and ii) to ascertain the relationship between the profiles and personal and contextual factors, as well as well-being and quality of life in old age. Methods A study sample of 5,566 Spanish older adults who participated in wave 6 of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) was included. Data were analysed in different steps applying several statistical analyses (Principal Component, Cluster, Discriminant, Multiple Correspondence and bivariate analysis with Pearson chi-square and ANOVA). Results Five older adult profiles were obtained (I: with moderate activity; II: quasi-dependents; III: with active ageing-limiting conditions; IV: with diverse and balanced activity; V: with excellent active ageing conditions). The first three profiles were characterised by subjects with a high average age, low educational level, who were retired or housewives, and who perceived a moderate level of loneliness, satisfaction with the social network and quality of life, as well as having a larger family network, but living in small households or alone. In contrast, the latter two profiles showed better personal and contextual conditions, well-being and quality of life. Discussion and conclusions The multidimensional approach to active ageing followed in this article has revealed the presence of several older adult profiles, which are confined to groups with better or worse active ageing conditions. In this context, if ageing is a process that reflects the previous way of life, intervention priorities will have to consider actions that promote better conditions during the life cycle.

Abstract

Background: The Living with Chronic Illness (LW‐CI) Scale is a comprehensive patient‐reported outcome measure that evaluates the complex process of living with long‐term conditions. Objective: This study aimed to analyse the psychometric properties of the LW‐CI scale according to the classic test theory and the Rasch model among individuals living with different long‐term conditions. Design: This was an observational, international and cross‐sectional study. Methods: A total of 2753 people from six Spanish‐speaking countries living with type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic heart failure, Parkinson's disease, hypertension and osteoarthritis were included. The acceptability, internal consistency and validity of the LW‐CI scale were analysed using the classical test theory, and fit to the model, unidimensionality, person separation index, item local independency and differential item functioning were analysed using the Rasch model. Results: Cronbach's α for the LW‐CI scale was.91, and correlation values for all domains of the LW‐CI scale ranged from.62 to.68, except for Domain 1, which showed correlation coefficients less than.30. The LW‐CI domains showed a good fit to the Rasch model, with unidimensionality, item local independency and moderate reliability providing scores in a true interval scale. Except for two items, the LW‐CI scale was free from bias by long‐term condition type. Discussion: After some adjustments, the LW‐CI scale is a reliable and valid measure showing a good fit to the Rasch model and is ready for use in research and clinical practice. Future implementation studies are suggested. Patient and Public Contribution: Patient and public involvement was conducted before this validation study ‐ in the pilot study phase.

Abstract

Sexual dysfunction is a very frequent non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, patients are often reluctant to declare their sexual problems and many clinicians do not inquire about them during routine visits. The use of validated rating scales and questionnaires allows overcoming these difficulties, characterizing the nature and causes of the patient's sexual dysfunction, and helping to implement and monitor the most adequate interventions. There is a wide range of instruments available for assessing sexual dysfunction in PD, including generic and specific ones. In this chapter, we review the most used rating scales and questionnaires, with a description of its components, characteristics and psychometric attributes., (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
