Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: Different kinds of psychological distress have been identified for students in the health field, especially in the medical school. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of mental suffering among medical students in the Southeastern Brazil and asses its association with social support. METHODS: It is a cross-sectional study. Structured questionnaires were applied for students from the 1st up to the 6th years of the medical school of Universidade Estadual Paulista "Júlio de Mesquita Filho", assessing demographic variables related to aspects of graduation and adaptation to the city. Psychological suffering was defined as a common mental disorder (CMD) assessed by the Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Social support was assessed by the social support scale of the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS). The association between the outcome and explanatory variables was assessed by the χ2 test and Logistic Regression, for the multivariate analyses, using p < 0.05. RESULTS: The response rate was of 80.7%, with no differences between sample and the population regarding gender (p = 0.78). The average age was 22 years old (standard deviation - SD = 2.2), mainly women (58.2%) and students who were living with friends (62%). The prevalence of CMD was 44.9% (95%CI 40.2 - 49.6). After the multivariate analyses, the explanatory variables that were associated with CMD were: feeling rejected in the past year (p < 0.001), thinking about leaving medical school (p < 0.001) and "interaction" in the MOS scale (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of CMD among medical students was high and insufficient social support was an important risk factor. Our findings suggest that interventions to improve social interaction among those students could be beneficial, decreasing the prevalence of CMD in this group.

Abstract:

Introduction. This work provides the results of author’s own research which are based on the analysis of characteristics of the post-stress personality disorders (PSD) taking into account the comorbid addictive behaviour among military personnel.During the study, it was found with PSD, the most pronounced addictions are cannabinoid, alcoholic and psychostimulants dependencies. Taking into account the tendency to increase number of people with psychopathological disorders and addictive behaviour manifestations in the modern Ukraine, the problem of prevention, treatment and support of people who were in the ATO area is acute now.Goal. Determination of markers of medical, psychological and social support.Research methods: theoretical, socio-demographic, clinical and psychopathological, psychodiagnostic, follow-up, clinical and anamnestic, statistical.Results. In order to develop a model of pharmacotherapy for this group of persons, during the 2014-2018 years, 219 people were examined at the age from 21 to 56 years, of which 18 persons were not included in the study according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Of surveyed people (201 persons), 59 people were diagnosed with PSD, including 32 people with comorbid adductions.We carried out a screening diagnostic assessment of the needs of servicemen, during which we identified the main requests for the need for corrective measures, their attitude and desire to take part in an experimental program to restore normal social life and restore normal life. According to the results of the study, it was found that the spectrum of needs covers all three spheres of a person’s life: biological, psychological and social. It was possible to identify the main targets of psychotherapy and draw up a plan of the main activities. The general goal of psychocorrectional measures for each of the studied groups was the restoration of normal processes of life of the individual and the restoration of normal social interaction.Conclusions. The developed measures gave us the opportunity to effectively influence all links of pathogenesis, based on the biopsychosocial model of addiction. In the process of treatment, taking into account the recommendations of the MOH on the treatment of military personnel, were improved certain stages of pharmacotherapy as the basis for further active psychosocial and psychosocial support, which will create the basis for the normalization of their livelihoods and the possibility of military-professional recovery.

Abstract:

Children constitute a special category among the disabled and people with disabilities. Restoration or compensation of impaired functions cannot be achieved in full, but thanks to medical and social support and technical means of rehabilitation, adaptation to existing living conditions, it is possible to achieve a higher level of quality of life. Medical and social support for children with disabilities is considered from the perspective of the available resource potential of the hospital system itself - the competent application of medical and social technologies and the functional capabilities of inpatient or semi-stationary type institutions. The leading criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of medical and social support for children with disabilities in hospital and semi-stationary care was the criterion of satisfaction of the medical and social needs of rehabilitators and their family members (parents/legal representatives). The author used analysis of documents, questioning of children with disabilities and parents (legal representatives) to identify needs, assessment of satisfaction of medical and social needs of children with disabilities and their parents (legal representatives) using comprehensive medical and social support (interviewing). In the course of the work, the purpose of the study was achieved – a sociological analysis of medical and social support for children with disabilities was carried out. Based on the research data, it can be concluded that the most relevant in meeting the needs of children with disabilities in hospital and semi-hospital settings are the socio-pedagogical and socio-psychological components of medical and social support, while the medical and social components fade into the background. The explicit needs must be met not through a ready-made solution, but by teaching the child himself to accept and work with them until an optimal level of compensation is achieved, the use of medical and social support technology as a system in hospital and semi-stationary conditions, on the one hand, has stable invariance properties, on the other, has variability.

Abstract:

AbstractObjective:To date, no measure of social support has been developed specifically for either palliative care or oncology settings. The present study examined the psychometric properties of the Duke–University of North Carolina Functional Social Support Questionnaire (DUFSS) in order to (1) assess the adequacy of the scale in the context of severe medical illness and (2) evaluate whether a brief subset of items might generate roughly comparable utility.Method:The 14-item DUFSS was administered to 1,362 individuals with advanced cancer or AIDS. Classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT) analyses were utilized to develop an abbreviated version of the DUFSS that maintained adequate reliability and validity and might increase the feasibility of its administration in a palliative care setting. The reliability and concurrent validity of the DUFSS-5 were evaluated in a separate validation sample of patients with advanced cancer.Results:Analyses generated a five-item version of the DUFSS (the DUFSS-5) that collapsed response levels into only three options, instead of five. Correlations between the DUFSS-5 and measures of depression, quality of life, and desire for hastened death, as well as regression models testing the main-effect and buffering models of social support, provided support for the utility of the DUFSS-5.Significance of results:Both the DUFSS and the abbreviated DUFSS-5 appear to have adequate reliability and validity in this setting. Moreover, the DUFSS-5 represents a potentially important option for healthcare researchers, particularly for those working in palliative care settings where issues of patient burden are paramount. Such analyses are critical for advancing the development and refinement of psychosocial measures, but have often been neglected.

Abstract:

Who are the recipients of school education and social welfare support in Japan, and to what extent is this support provided? This article examines the problems of families raising children Requiring Medical Care. These are the children who need some kind of medical care throughout their lives. The problem of who should provide medical care needed by these children and their parents in school and everyday life, and how it should be provided has long been debated. Policy changes are needed to reduce the mental, physical, and financial burden on parents, especially mothers. With the spread of inclusive education comes increased support for children with special educational needs, including children with disabilities. Also in recent years there has been widespread demand for women's social activities and increased support for the upbringing of children. In these circumstances it became a social problem whether families with children requiring medical care are the recipients of support — for example, in matters of work-life balance for parents and the needs of the children themselves. By researching how families with children requiring medical care are supported in school education and social welfare, we attempt to outline a frame of support system of school education and social welfare in Japan. From this perspective, this article conducted surveys for parent groups.

Abstract:

201 Background: Cancer incidence is rising as the number of older adults increases. Lack of social support has been found to predict mortality among cancer patients. Emotional support has been reported to be the most desirable type of social support. Methods: The data was collected prospectively, and analysis conducted in a retrospective manner, in a cohort of older adults seen at the Program for Healthy Aging at the MD Anderson Cancer Center between Jan 2013 and December 2015. Demographics, cancer diagnosis, and other geriatric conditions were diagnosed and collected during comprehensive geriatric assessments. Social supports were measured through self-report RAND’s Medical Outcomes study (MOS) questionnaires. Overall social support and sub domains (emotional, informational, tangible, affectionate, and positive interaction) were scored. Outcomes including unplanned hospital admission were collected through reviewing of medical records. Pearson chi-square or the Fisher exact tests were used to compare groups on admission. Logistic regressions were used to investigate the relative contribution of social network and social supports for unplanned hospital admission. Results: Among 132 patients who were included in the analysis, 49(37%) patients had unplanned hospital admissions, and the overall social support score was 86%. Cancer type -hematologic versus solid tumors- demonstrated a stronger association with hospitalizations than social support. The subdomains of tangible support, positive interaction, and affection support were different between two groups. Tangible support had an odd ratio of 10.6 (p = 0.026) in unplanned hospital admission, after adjusting for cancer type, cancer stage, and cognitive status. In our study population, patients who receive more social support were more likely to be hospitalized. Conclusions: Among older cancer patients, those who receive more social support are more likely to be hospitalized. Further studies that correlate with health outcomes may be meaningful to develop strategies or interventions to improve clinical practices, to enhance quality of life and meaningful survival in elderly cancer patients.

Abstract:

Background Medical schools are challenged to guard student wellbeing given the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 outbreak combined with an already high prevalence of mental distress. Although social support is generally associated with less crisis-induced stress, it is unknown whether this applies to medical students during the COVID-19 outbreak. Objectives The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on perceived stress of medical students was assessed by comparing their perceived stress levels during the outbreak to both their own baseline and the previous cohort’s pre-COVID-19 stress levels. Then, the association between social support and stress during the COVID-19 outbreak was assessed. Methods Dutch Year-1 medical students of cohort 2019 (n = 99) completed the 14-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14) at two time points: baseline (pre-COVID-19) and final measurement (COVID-19). Social support—emotional-informational support and club membership—was assessed during the final measurement. PSS and social support scores were compared to similar measurements of cohort 2018 (n = 196). Students’ baseline stress levels, gender, and study performance were controlled for when comparing final stress levels. Results In cohort 2018 (pre-COVID-19), students’ perceived stress levels did not differ significantly between the baseline and final measurements. Additionally, baseline stress levels of the two cohorts (2018 and 2019) were not found to be significantly different. Cohort 2019’s final stress levels (COVID-19) were significantly higher compared to their baseline stress levels (paired t-test: t = 6.07, p < .001) and cohort 2018’s final stress levels (linear regression: B = 4.186, p < .001). Only during the COVID-19 outbreak higher social support levels—i.e., emotional-informational support (B = -0.75, p < .001) and club membership (B = -3.68, p < .01)—were associated with lower stress levels. Conclusions During the COVID-19 outbreak, medical students’ perceived stress levels were higher—especially for students with lower social support levels. Our results suggest that medical schools should optimize social support to minimize crisis-induced stress.

Abstract:

The purpose of the article is to study approaches to medical and social support of patients with chronic diseases in Russia and abroad in order to identify possible ways to solve emerging problems in this area of modern healthcare development. The reasons of comorbidity (polymorbidity), disadvantages of algorithms for accompanying patients with two or more chronic diseases, models of management of patients with chronic diseases and priorities of their use are considered. Based on the analysis of Russian and foreign publications, as well as the systematization of the opinions of experts interviewed during the scientific and practical expert session conducted by the authors (April 2022), conclusions are drawn about existing problems and possible ways to solve them. A proposal has been put forward to organize an information and coordination center for the support of patients with two or more chronic diseases. The purpose, tasks (and the order of their solution), the structure of the center, the need for the work of a curator leading patients (and who can perform the duties of a curator), the possibilities of integrating types of care (medical, social, psychological) to patients who need to be accompanied by specialists-representatives of organizations of very different orientation: medical, rehabilitation, social and preventive. It is shown that the increase in the number of polymorbid patients is a serious burden for modern healthcare systems around the world, and requires the search for effective approaches to solving the problem. The importance of self-preserving behavior of patients and the responsibility of the person himself for adherence to the treatment and prevention of diseases, as well as maintaining a healthy lifestyle is emphasized.

Abstract:

ObjectivePrevious studies have demonstrated an association between social support and lower morbidity and mortality. Delay in seeking medical care is associated with poor health outcomes. The relationship between social support and delay in seeking medical care has not been established. We sought to determine whether lack of social support is associated with higher rates of delays in seeking needed medical care.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional observational study using data from the 2013 and 2014 Centers for Disease Control Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Participants who were asked questions about delays in medical care and social support were included. The primary outcome was a self-reported delay in seeking needed medical care. The primary independent variable of interest was a dichotomised measure of social support. Multivariable logistic regression was performed, adjusting for demographics, socioeconomic status, comorbidities and access to care.ResultsParticipants without social support were more likely to report delaying needed medical care when compared with participants with social support (38%vs19%, p<0.001). The association between lack of social support and delays in care persisted after adjustment for demographics, socioeconomic status, comorbidities and access to care (OR 1.72; 95% CI 1.45 to 2.06; p<0.001).ConclusionsLack of perceived social support is associated with patient-reported delay of needed medical care. This association may contribute to the poor health outcomes experienced by those with a lack of social support.

Metodología: Estudio descriptivo transversal, con una muestra de 542 individuos universitarios, mayores de 18 años, seleccionados a conveniencia; se evaluaron características sociodemográficas, así como el cuestionario Medical Outcomes Study-Social Support Survey. Para evaluar la estructura jerárquica se utilizó la técnica “análisis factorial exploratorio por medio del método de componentes principales”, con rotación varimax, según el grado de correlación existente entre ellos. Se determinó, por intermedio de la prueba de esfericidad de Bartlett, el determinante de la matriz de correlaciones y la prueba de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (válido con valores por encima de 0.5). Para estimar “confiabilidad” se usó el Alpha de Cronbach, posterior a la consolidación de los factores. Resultados: se obtuvo información de 510 individuos, de los cuales 263 fueron mujeres (51,6 %); la edad fue 24,8 de 2,6. Se estimaron 3 factores para el análisis factorial exploratorio que explicaban el 63.559 % de la varianza. Entre 0,442 a 0,784 oscilaron las cargas factoriales de los ítems que componen el instrumento. Con relación a la consistencia interna mostró por factor puntajes de ?-Cronbach que fluctuaban dentro de 0,821 a 0,913 y un ? general de 0,920. Conclusión: las propiedades psicométricas del cuestionario en estudiantes universitarios muestran valores aceptables; no obstante, esos resultados deben ser usados con cautela, pues es necesario desarrollar otros estudios que corroboren los resultados de nuestro estudio

Abstract:

At the heart of modern conceptual approaches to the development of children’s health, especially the primary care, along with the other is the principle of the evaluation and analysis of environmental factors influencing the health of the child population, and as a consequence, organizational search technologies, having a maximum socialization and effectively integrated into such an environment. It is a complex medical-social approach to monitoring the lives and health of every child allows to achieve the most positive results. In everyday practice a direct part of the pediatric service in addressing social issues arise most often in cases of a clear threat to the life or health of the child. Early diagnosis of adverse society, medical support, social adaptation of the child or are not conducted or are conducted in a very limited extent. However, according to the number of researchers in recent years, the proportion of children, which they can and should be attributed to the categories of social risk, increases and amounts according to various sources 10-25% [5, 8]. First of all, the children in difficult life situations, children from large and dysfunctional families, children with disabilities, children in care, young mothers, children and adolescents are prone to a variety of offences, vagrancy. In modern conditions improvement of the system of medical support of the child population should be provided not only on ways to improve the efficiency and quality of diagnostic and therapeutic aid, but also intensive development of health and social care. So in the decree of the President of the Russian Federation from June 1, 2012 No 761 “On the National strategy of actions in interests of children for 2012-2017” include the need for the development and implementation of modern and efficient technologies of medical and social support children and adolescents.

Abstract:

Background. This study examines the effects of distress and three types of social relationships (family, friends, and confidantes) on the use of out-patient health services in an adult sample from a community survey of 3481 persons in Baltimore, Maryland.Methods. Independent effects of predisposing (age, education, marital status, race and sex), enabling (employment, income and insurance) and need (physical health) factors are adjusted for in estimating the odds of using health care services.Results. Illness, being female, and having insurance were positively related to use of services, while being aged was inversely related. After adjustment for the above factors, social support interacted with psychological distress to effect the use of medical care: the combination of high distress and low social support by a confidante results in a fourfold increase of medical utilization.Conclusions. Our findings support the inclusion of psychological distress and social network variables in addition to physical health status in models attempting to explain the use of health services. Despite an inability to analyse change over time, our data suggest an understanding of the interrelationship between psychosocial factors, distress and health care use would benefit health providers and their patients.

Abstract:

Background: Internet mainstreamed virtual socialization on social networking sites (SNS). Social relationship variables are linked to health. We investigated the social relationship variables and SNS use among medical students.Methods: After institutional ethics committee approval, we invited 150 random undergraduate medical students and 150 postgraduate resident doctors from a medical college. Regular SNS users were included and those suffering from any psychiatric or chronic medical condition were excluded from the study. Of all the invited individuals, 104 undergraduates (56 females and 48 males) and 103 postgraduates (50 females and 53 males) consented for study.Results: Facebook was the most commonly and regularly used SNS in our study sample. Daily average time spent by participants on SNS was 40 minutes. Mean number of SNS friends of undergraduates was 150 and of postgraduates was 143. Undergraduate medical students reported an average of 49 friends living locally and 74 friends living at a distance; postgraduate resident doctors reported average 80 friends living locally and 325 friends living at a distance. Undergraduates sought attention more frequently than postgraduates by posting photos to SNS. Postgraduates had their recreation and academics were more affected due to SNS than undergraduates. Number of SNS friends had no association with social integration, social support or social stress.Conclusions: SNS may hamper the curricular as well as recreational activities of medicos, especially postgraduate resident doctors. The number of SNS friends is independent of a medico’s social integration and may not be associated with social support and social stress.

Abstract:

499 medical students were given the Perceptual Social Support Scale and the Self-Efficacy Scale in order to investigate the link and processes between depression symptoms and these constructs. The Perceptual Social Support Scale, the Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Depression Scale were used to investigate 499 medical students. The results showed that: ①Depressive symptoms were substantially inversely correlated with perceived social support; ②The association between depressed symptoms and perceived social support was mediated by self-efficacy. Consequently, lowering depressed symptoms in medical students can be achieved through raising self-efficacy and social support.

Abstract:

Background. The paper presents the results of an analysis of the organization and legal regulation of the medical support of the Russian judicial system. It is noted that at present, in the theoretical and applied medical/legal literature, there are no comprehensive and systematic ideas about the medical support of employees (personnel) of social institutions that traditionally relate to the functioning of the judiciary (judges of courts of various instances; other court employees; workers (employees) prosecutors, lawyers, employees of enforcement agencies). The authors are trying to resolve this contradiction based on the study of relevant scientific sources. Materials and research methods. To obtain and generalize scientific data on the organization, essence, structure, content and features of the medical support of the judicial system, the principles of systematic, comparative legal and historical legal research were used as methodological approaches. The main methods were analysis and synthesis, systematization and conceptualization, comparison and analogy, deduction and induction, abstraction and generalization. Results. A consistent study of medical and legal literature, as well as the requirements of legal acts, made it possible to formulate a definition of the concept of medical support for the judicial system, to establish its scope and content, as well as the subject composition and subject-functional structure. Until now, there have been no such developments in medical and interdisciplinary research. Conclusion. Author’s developments allow you to know the system and structure, as well as the procedure for organizing medical support for employees of social institutions that are considered judicial. This leads to the systematization of scientific ideas about such a significant social phenomenon.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTBackground:Social support programs for dementia caregivers were widely used in order to reduce care burden. We investigated which types of social supports can reduce psychological and non-psychological burdens of dementia caregivers, and explored the mechanism of those social supports.Methods:We evaluated 731 community-dwelling dementia patients and their caregivers from the National Survey of Dementia Care in South Korea. We investigated the five types of social supports (emotional support, informational support, tangible support, positive social interaction, affectionate support) using the Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey in each caregiver. The mechanisms of specific types of social support on psychological/non-psychological burden were examined using path analysis.Results:Positive social interaction and affectionate support reduced psychological burden via direct and indirect paths. Tangible support reduced the non-psychological burden via direct and indirect paths. Informational support and emotional support were not helpful for reducing psychological or non-psychological burden. A maximum of 20% of psychological burden could be relieved by positive social interaction and 10.3% of that could be reduced by affectionate support. Tangible support was associated with a 15.1% maximal improvement in non-psychological burden.Conclusions:In order to reduce caregiver burden in dementia effectively, psychosocial interventions should be tailored to target type of caregiver burden.
