- FRAIL-HF: learn how to improve the quality of life of for frail older patients with heart failure in primary care and prevention of readmissions.
- One of the most profound measures for the working population during the pandemic was the working from home measure, which advised workers to work from home. While millions of workers altered their work patterns, the impact of this sweeping shift is less clear due to a lack of longitudinal studies. Therefore, insights are needed in the medium-term effects of working from home and the identification…
- GP practices were less easy to visit during COVID-19 and remote care was offered. The lockdowns also had short-term effects on dietary patterns and physical activity. This study examines the midterm effects on access to the GP and health behaviours of citizens in deprived areas and diabetes patients. It is a follow-up to the ZonMw project Effects of COVID-19 on GP visits by patients in deprived…
- Dialysis and kidney transplant patients were the most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic. The effects of COVID-19 measures on the health of these patients will be investigated. The influence of factors as age, gender, family composition, education level and work situation are taken into account. We also look back at how the measures have been experienced by patients. This insight can lead to…
- Pandemic-driven school closures produced unintended negative impacts such as parental stress. But are Dutch parents still navigating the stress years later after the school closures? By leveraging advanced statistical techniques and population-based longitudinal survey data, we seek to examine the medium-term causal effects of school closures on parents’ social, psychological, and mental health…
- People with an intellectual disability have fewer contacts with other people. They also feel lonely more often than others. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there were measures that made contact with others and participation in activities more difficult. And even after the pandemic, it remained a challenge for people with ID to participate in activities again. Or to see other people. The question is…
- There is insufficient knowledge on the impact of school closures during a pandemic. A school closure can have a major impact on students, and therefore influence society and the economy in the longer term. The PRESENT-consortium is therefore mapping the diverse effects of secondary and MBO school closures. This will allow us to better advise and make decisions during future pandemics.
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, policymakers often had to choose between societal freedoms and preventing the spread of the coronavirus. As more people contracted the virus, pressure on the healthcare system increased. Frontline healthcare workers sometimes had to provide care that fell below their usual standards. Working under high pressure contributed to moral injury among healthcare workers: a…
- Populations with a migration background and lower educational/occupational groups were more vulnerable to negative changes related to mental health, income, healthy behavior (i.e. diet, tobacco, alcohol use) and access to non-COVID-19 healthcare during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. These populations were also at increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19 outcomes…
- Learn more about the development and implementation of a guideline for neck pain and headache that focuses on exercise and physiotherapeutic care.
- COVID-19 measures, such as lockdowns, reduced the spread of non-COVID respiratory infections, which are linked to the development of neurological autoimmune diseases like narcolepsy, multiple sclerosis, and Guillain-Barré syndrome. LUMC, Amsterdam UMC, and Sleep-Wake Center SEIN will investigate whether COVID-19 measures reduced the number of new autoimmune disease cases. The societal effects of…
- With this new ZonMw-funded study (number 4), we will continue the systematic data collection we set up earlier. We will focus on parental stress in relation to COVID measures and potential trauma in children, for which we will conduct retrospective focus group interviews with parents and children. Lastly, we will examine the impact of digital (as opposed to face-to-face) therapeutic contacts on…
