“…A study conducted by Farah et al reported that anxieties among the elderly during the hajj usually occur during mabit in Mudzdalifah and throwing jumrah in Mina due to overwhelming crowds, extremely hot conditions, emotional state of irritability, and declining physical conditions (Thirafi & Hakim, 2018). Another study reported depressive disorder as the common psychiatric disorder among hajj pilgrims (Alzahrani et al, 2021).…”

The ability of the Muslim community in Indonesia to perform the hajj pilgrimage, which fulfills Islam’s fifth pillar, is increasing. With the rise in life expectancy, the number of Indonesian elderly hajj pilgrims (EHP) is consequently growing. However, chronic conditions such as impairments, illnesses, and diseases cause an increase in morbidity and mortality among EHP. Thus, an innovative training program with practical tips for a healthy hajj experience is needed to improve the healthcare service to the EHP. This study aims to investigate the effects of an innovative training on the performance of Hajj Healthcare Workers of Indonesia (HHWI) and on the clinical outcomes of EHP. It was a quasi-experimental study. The population was all HHWI from the Surakarta embarkation in 2014. Meanwhile, the sample of this study was all 21 HHWI from Yogyakarta who received innovative training consisting of EHP special care training (theory and practice) in addition to basic national training. Twenty-one HHWI from Surakarta were randomly chosen as a control group and only received basic national training. Pre and post tests were used to assess knowledge of HHWI after training. The average pretest scores of the intervention and control groups were 48.50 and 48.07, respectively (p= 0.337), while the posttest score of the intervention group was 86.83 (p = 0.033). The measured parameters were the performance of HHWI, which is reflected by the EHP mortality rate, the number of outpatients, and the number of patients referred to the outpatients. We included the EHP under the supervision of HHWI, which has acquired training. EHP morbidity was evaluated as the number of outpatients and referred patients. There were 2216 outpatients from the intervention group as compared with 2144 in the control group, with most of them being 60-70 years old (p= 0,075). The number of referred EHP in the intervention and control groups was 10 and 30 patients, respectively (OR 2.94; p= 0.002). As for the mortality cases, we observed 7 EPH deaths during the hajj period (2 EPH from the intervention group vs 5 EPH from the control group; OR 0.263; p=0.207). Innovative training could reduce referral morbidity and mortality among elderly hajj pilgrims

Objective: This research has been conducted to reveal the relationship between nursing care perceptions, self-recovery power and perceived social support on the self-recovery power of inpatients in psychiatry clinics and the factors affecting this relationship. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional, descriptive, and relationship-seeking study was conducted with 172 patients hospitalized in psychiatry clinics. Research data were collected using the "Patient Information Collection Form", "Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale", "Self-Recovery Power Scale" and "Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support". Results: It was found that there is a highly significant relationship between psychiatric patients’ ability to recover and the perceived social support and the nursing care perception (p

“…Around 2 million Hajj pilgrims gather each year and have to perform sequential steps that require staying at different locations in Makkah city [9]. Those pilgrims have to be in good physical, psychological and cognitive health in order to perform Hajj properly [10][11][12]. In Hajj, little is known about the prevalence of dementia among pilgrims.…”

Background: Although cognitive impairment is common in the elderly population, studies investigating its rate in Hajj pilgrims are lacking. Objectives: To estimate the rate of cognitive impairment among a sample of Arabic-speaking elderly Hajj pilgrims and examine its association with their activities of daily living (ADL). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted during the Hajj season 1438 Hijri Calendar (August 2017). Hajj pilgrims were recruited using a probability sampling method and were interviewed for demographics, the MINI-Cog and the ADL instrument. Results: Among the 340 recruited pilgrims, 99 (29.2%) had positive results in the MINI-Cog indicating probable cognitive impairment. In multivariate logistic regression, the educational level (odds ratio (OD) 0.456; 95% CI 0.346 to 0.598) and the need for help during Hajj (OD 0.581; 95% CI 0.342 to 0.984) were found significantly associated with positive MINI-Cog. Although no significant differences in the ADL were found between pilgrims with and without positive MINI-Cog, the scores of the ADL and the MINI-Cog were found to be positively correlated but weak (r s = 0.134, P = 0.013) indicating a possible association between better cognitive functions and better ADL performance. Conclusion: Probable cognitive impairment among Arabic elderly Hajj pilgrims was found to be very common. Further diagnostic studies and studies on the impact of cognitive impairment on the performance of Hajj pilgrims are warranted.
