“…Both the long-term illness management group and the combined group received weekly 30-minute telephone call visits for 10 weeks. The investigators found significant reductions in depressive symptoms among participants in the combined intervention group when compared with usual care, as measured by the PHQ-9 (effect size Cohen's d = 0.74) and the Beck Depression Inventory II (effect size Cohen's d = 0.63); however, there was no significant difference in depression scores between the combined intervention and illness management groups (Aburizik et al 2013). One potential reason proposed by the researchers is that those in the illness management group were asked to explore the impact of their longterm physical illness on self-image, interpersonal relationships, and engagement in enjoyable activities, which are similar to the components of the psychotherapeutic intervention (i.e.…”

“…While the preceding studies indicate that there is potential for telehealth interventions to support the delivery of care in older adults experiencing depressive symptoms, current evidence shows inconsistencies, especially findings related to other health outcomes related to depressive symptoms. For example, in Aburizik et al (2013) pilot RCT, the investigators found that telehealth psychotherapy sessions had a nonsignificant effect on long-term disease self-management and health-related quality of life. Choi et al (2014) also found inconsistent results, wherein depression scores between the in-person PST and care call group showed no difference at follow-up [t (360.40) = À0.84, P = 0.40].…”

Depression has been identified as the single largest contributor to poor health and functioning worldwide. Global estimates indicate that 4.4% of the world's population lives with depression, equating to about 322 million individuals. Research demonstrates that telehealth interventions (i.e. delivering therapy by phone or videoconferencing) have potential for improving mental health care among community‐based older adults. This review analyses scholarly literature on telehealth interventions among older adults with depressive symptoms. Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search of peer‐reviewed papers was conducted using the following key terms: telemedicine, telepsychogeriatrics, telepsychiatry, eHealth, mental health, depression, and geriatric. The review included nine articles examining telehealth for mental health care, published in English between 1946 and 26 September 2017. Telehealth for mental health care among older adults demonstrates a significant impact on health outcomes, including reduced emergency visits, hospital admissions, and depressive symptoms, as well as improved cognitive functioning. Positive or negative influences on the use of telehealth among older adults are identified. This review highlights keys aspects to consider in using telehealth interventions, including levels of education, cognitive function, and prior technology experience. The review highlights vital factors for designing interventions which aim to capitalize on the benefits of the use of telehealth for mental healthcare service delivery, especially in older adults with depressive symptoms.

Objectives: Anxiety and depression are prevalent in the elderly and lead to loss of functionality and increased mortality. Although the use of antidepressants and faceto-face psychotherapies are indicated, the current context of telemedicine provides an alternative, with the advantage of facilitating access to care. The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of telemedicine interventions to reduce anxiety and depression in the elderly through a systematic review with meta-analysis. Methods:The systematic review, through a search in 7 databases, included studies that evaluated the use of telemedicine interventions for depressive or anxious symptoms in the elderly, compared with usual care or waiting list or with another telemedicine intervention. Quantitative assessment was performed through metaanalysis.Results: A total of 31 articles identified in the search met the eligibility criteria and four were included for meta-analysis. Studies showed that telemedicine interventions are feasible and several studies demonstrated significant improvement in depressive or anxiety symptoms. Four studies evaluated the efficacy of internetdelivered cognitive behavioral therapy for depression and anxiety in older adults, compared with a waitlist, and found pooled effect sizes of −1.20 (95% CI −1.60 to −0.81) and −1.14 (95% CI −1.56 to −0.72), respectively, with low heterogeneity.Conclusions: Telemedicine interventions can be an alternative for the treatment of mood and anxiety symptoms in the elderly. However, more studies are needed to prove their clinical effectiveness, especially in countries with lower incomes and diverse culture and education.

The COVID-19 outbreak in China was devastating and spread throughout the country before being contained. Stringent physical distancing recommendations and shelter-in-place were first introduced in the hardest-hit provinces, and by March, these recommendations were uniform throughout the country. In the presence of an evolving and deadly pandemic, we sought to investigate the impact of this pandemic on individual well-being and prevention practices among Chinese urban residents. From March 2-11, 2020, 4607 individuals were recruited from 11 provinces with varying numbers of COVID-19 cases using the social networking app WeChat to complete a brief, anonymous, online survey. The analytical sample was restricted to 2551 urban residents. Standardized scales measured generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), the primary outcome. Multiple logistic regression was conducted to identify correlates of GAD alongside assessment of community practices in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We found that during the COVID-19 pandemic, the recommended public health practices significantly (p < 0.001) increased, including wearing facial mask, practicing physical distancing, handwashing, decreased public spitting, and going outside in urban communities. Overall, 40.3% of participants met screening criteria for GAD and 49.3%, 62.6%, and 55.4% reported that their work, social life, and family life were interrupted by anxious feelings, respectively.
