Abstract

Introduction: COVID-19 is a disease that can severely reduce life quality, particularly in the aged population. The research aim was to establish the correlation between health-related life quality and dyspnea severity within aged COVID-19 survivors.Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted on older COVID-19 survivors at Persahabatan Hospital, Jakarta. The use of WhatsApp® video call and Zoom® video conference applications for audio and video evaluation in data collection. The European Quality of Life-5Dimensions-5L (EQ-5D-5L) and the European Quality of Life-Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS) were used to assess health-related quality of life. Modified Borg and modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale were used to assess dyspnea severity. The data were analyzed using correlation test. Results: Based on 44 data collected, it was found that seven (15.9%) of the participants experienced mild breathlessness, while three patients (6.8%) had severe level of dyspnea on the modified Borg dyspnea scale assessment. The mMRC dyspnea scale assessment indicated that over nine patients (20.4%) had mMRC value greater than one. The study found a significant correlation (p less than 0.01) between the EQ-5D-5L and the modified Borg Dyspnea Scale, particularly in the areas of anxiety or depression (r=0.52), self-care (r=0.51), mobility (r=0.42), and EQ-VAS (r=-0.53). The EQ-5D-5L and the mMRC dyspnea scale showed a significant correlation (p less than 0.01), particularly in relation to usual activities (r=0.69), self-care (r=0.62), and mobility (r=0.65), as well as EQ VAS (r=-0.58).Conclusion: Moderate positive correlations existed between life quality issues including self-care, anxiety, depression and dyspnea severity .

Abstract

Leprosy has a high incidence of physical complications that will impact directly the physiological, economic, and social status of patients. Indonesia has a high burden of the disease, and several leprosy settlements are still spread in the country. Neglasari Village, Sitanala, Tangerang serves as one of the places of residence of people who have had leprosy. A health service initiative known as Identifikasi Tanda-Tanda Mata, Ekstremitas, dan Kulit pada Kusta (KATAMATAKU) was launched as a collaboration of health services among multi-departments (ophthalmology, dermatovenereology, and medical rehabilitation). Sitanala has a relatively high incidence of people who have had leprosy with disabilities of the hand, foot, and eye. As a continuation of this health service and combined with the efforts to improve the welfare of leprosy patients, in November 2019, a multidisciplinary program titled KATAMATAKU Universitas Indonesia, was conducted. This program aimed to determine the demographic data regarding the health, psychological, social, and economic status of the leprosy population at Sitanala The project consisted of a collaborative anti-stigma program by the Faculty of Psychology, Public Health, Social and Political Sciences, Cultural Sciences, Administrative Sciences, and Vocational Educational Program; thematic health program, which supports the improvement of physical abilities and empowerment of former leprosy patients, by the Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing, and Pharmacy; thematic economics program, which aims to increase the economic capacity of the leprosy community, by the Faculty of Economics and Business, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, and Engineering. This program enabled the construction of a multidimensional management model, in which every aspect plays important roles to improve the patients’ quality of life.
