Społeczny wpływ pandemii COVID-19 na pacjentów CKD leczonych dializami w Portugalii

Abstracts

EN

This study aimed to assess the social impact of COVID-19 on chronic kidney disease patients, a vulnerable population, by analysing the social problems that emerged and aggravated during the pandemic’s first phase. 117 CKD patients on treatment, referred to Social Work, participated in this study. New referrals were 37.6%, and 62.4% were aggravated situations, presenting mostly economic deprivation or lack of income, unemployment, and social isolation. The social intervention complexity was higher among those with aggravated social problems. The results allow social workers to plan interventions focused on the most relevant emerging issues in a pandemic challenging context.

Celem prezentowanego badania była ocena społecznego wpływu pandemii COVID-19 na pacjentów z przewlekłą chorobą nerek, populację szczególnie narażoną na liczne powikłania w przypadku zarażenia się wirusem SARS-CoV-2. Autorzy skupili się na analizie problemów społecznych, które pojawiły się i nasiliły w pierwszej fazie pandemii. W badaniu wzięło udział 117 pacjentów leczonych w CKD, skierowanych do otrzymania pomocy socjalnej. Zaobserwowano wzrost liczby osób kierowanych do otrzymania pomocy. Nowych zgłoszeń było 37,6%, a 62,4% z nich związane było z pogorszeniem społeczno-ekonomicznej sytuacji pacjenta – głównie deprywacją ekonomiczną lub brakiem dochodów, bezrobociem i izolacją społeczną. Złożoność interwencji socjalnej była wyższa wśród osób z nasilonymi problemami społecznymi. Wyniki otrzymanych badań mają nie tylko walor naukowy, lecz także praktyczny – pozwalają pracownikom socjalnym na planowanie pomocy skoncentrowanej na najistotniejszych problemach pojawiających się w kontekście wyzwań pandemicznych.
