Video-based Psychotherapy for COVID-19 Patients in Isolation Ward in Jakarta

8. april 2021 oppdatert av: Petrin Redayani Lukman, Indonesia University

Effectiveness of Video-based Psychotherapy in Reducing Distress in Patients With COVID-19 Treated in a Hospital Isolation Ward in Jakarta

The COVID-19 pandemic has made severe impact worldwide for those inflicted by the disease, the caretakers, the general public, as well as the health care system. Hospitalized patients with COVID-19 experience physical isolation during treatment. Isolation may lead to psychological distress that could negatively affect well-being such as affective states of depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Thus, creative ways to deliver psycho-social support are needed when face-to-face therapy sessions may not possible. We investigated the effectiveness of video-based psychotherapy in reducing distress in patients with COVID-19 treated in a general hospital isolation ward in Jakarta. This study included 42 patients with COVID-19, who were asked to watch three brief psychotherapy videos about relaxation, managing thoughts and emotions, and mindfulness. Before and after watching the videos, patients were asked to complete the Subjective Units of Distress Scale (SUDS) to measure their stress level. 31 subjects experienced a significant decrease in SUDS score after the intervention. Our brief video-based psychotherapy intervention may have a positive effect on reducing distress in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in areas with scarce resources.

Detaljert beskrivelse

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has brought severe consequences worldwide. Indonesia is one of the countries which has been affected by this pandemic. The examination, treatment, and monitoring of individuals with COVID-19 often requires them to be in a hospital isolation ward. There are a lot of factors which could negatively affect the mental health of such patients during their isolation, to the point that they develop significantly debilitating conditions.

Several psychotherapy interventions have been known to be effective during a pandemic situation. The interventions include those based on techniques of relaxation, managing thoughts and feelings, and mindfulness. These methods could help reducing negative and catastrophic thoughts about the future, reducing distress level and hyperarousal, and other beneficial effect. However, due to the high transmission rate of SARS-CoV-2 virus (severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2), face-to-face therapy sessions are rendered difficult to hold under the circumstances. Thus, we conducted a pilot study to test the impact of a video-based psychotherapy intervention on distress and well-being in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in a medical isolation ward.

This pilot study included 42 patients with COVID-19, aged 20-59. Participants watched three brief psychotherapy videos covering relaxation, managing thoughts and emotions, and mindfulness. Before and after watching the videos, patients were asked to complete the Subjective Units of Distress Scale (SUDS). 31 subjects experienced a significant median decrease in SUDS score after the intervention. The effect size was 0.485, with a 95% confidence interval of 0.302 to 0.634. Our brief video-based psychotherapy intervention may have a positive effect on reducing distress in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in areas with scarce resources. This study could be used as a reference for future studies regarding the method of choice for delivering psychotherapy intervention for patients in isolation ward during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Video-based Psychotherapy
The group received the intervention of video-based psychotherapy.
Atferdsmessig: Video-based Psychotherapy

Participants in the group watched three short videos. Therapeutic elements in the three consecutive short videos included relaxation therapy, managing thoughts and feelings, and mindfulness. Each video has a duration of just over 10 minutes.

In the first video, the participants were introduced to the purpose and benefits of relaxation techniques. These included rhythmic breathing techniques, progressive muscle relaxation, imagining a comforting and quiet place, and positive self-talk. In the second video about managing thoughts and feelings, the participants were introduced to the notion of acceptance of their condition. They were invited to recognize the emergence of negative feelings and thoughts related to acceptance. In the last video about mindfulness, patients were introduced to three basic mindfulness skills: observation, elaboration, and participation.

Tidsramme
Change from Baseline Subjective Units of Distress (SUDS) at Right After Receiving Video-based Psychotherapy
Tidsramme: Baseline (before receiving the intervention of video-based psychotherapy) and immediately after receiving the intervention of video-based psychotherapy (right after the participants have finished watching the 30 minutes-long psychotherapy videos)

Subjective Units of Distress (SUDS) is a self-rating instrument used to measure the distress level of an individual in a numeric scale from the scale of 0 (no distress) to 10 (extreme distress).

Change = score right after participants have received the video-based psychotherapy - baseline score before they received the video-based psychotherapy
Baseline (before receiving the intervention of video-based psychotherapy) and immediately after receiving the intervention of video-based psychotherapy (right after the participants have finished watching the 30 minutes-long psychotherapy videos)
