چکیده

مقدمه: سالمندان بیشتر از سایر افراد جامعه تحت تأثیر کرونا قرار گرفتند. انزوای اجتماعی، از پیامدهای مهم همه‌گیری کرونا؛ سالمندان را تحت تأثیر خود قرار داده است. مطالعه مروری حاضر با هدف بررسی مطالعات مربوط به انزوای اجتماعی سالمندان در طی همه‌گیری ویروس کرونا انجام شد.
روش‌کار: در این مطالعه مروری جهت یافتن مقالات با عنوان انزوای اجتماعی سالمندان و کووید-19، مقالات چاپ شده به زبان انگلیسی در پایگاه داده­ های Scopus، ISI (web of science)، PubMed (Medline)،Cochrane Library و Science direct از ابتدای پاندمی ویروس کرونا (2019) تاکنون (2021) با استفاده از MeSH و کلیدواژه­ های اختصاصی مانند "انزوای اجتماعی"، "سالمندان"، "تنهایی"، "کرونا ویروس"، "ویروس کووید-19"، "بیماری سارس کووید 2"، "پاندمی" و "افراد سالمند"، به‌تنهایی و در ترکیب با هم با استفاده از نشانگرهای AND و OR مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند.
یافته­ ها: تعداد 11 مطالعه مرتبط با کووید-19 و انزوای اجتماعی، وارد مطالعه حاضر شدند. یافته­ ها نشان داد پاندمی کرونا و سیاست­ های بهداشتی اتخاذ شده، موجب تشدید احساس تنهایی و انزوا در سالمندان شده است. احساس تنهایی و انزوای اجتماعی در سالمندان به‌دلیل اجرای پروتکل‌های پیشگیرانه همانند قرنطینه و فاصله اجتماعی؛ افزایش یافته است.
نتیجه ­گیری: توجه به رویکردهای کاهش انزوای اجتماعی در سالمندان در دوران پاندمی کووید-19، از مداخلات مهمی است که باید مورد توجه برنامه‌ریزان و سیاست‌گذاری دولت­ ها جهت کاهش نرخ آسیب در سالمندان و به‌دنبال آن، کاهش هزینه­ های بهداشتی برای برطرف کردن عوارض ناشی از آن قرار گیرد.

Methods: In this systematic review, to find the article entitled elderly social isolation and Covid-19, the articles published in English from the beginning of the Corona virus pandemic to 2021 were searched in databases of Scopus, ISI (web of science), PubMed (Medline), Cochrane Library, and Science direct using MeSH and the keywords of "social isolation", "elderly", "loneliness", "coronavirus", "COVID -19", "SARS COVID -2", "pandemic", "elderly", alone and in combination using the operators AND and OR.
Results: A total of 11 studies related to Covid-19 and social isolation were included in the study. The findings showed that the COVID-19 pandemic and health policies have exacerbated feelings of loneliness and isolation in the elderly. Loneliness and social isolation in the elderly have increased due to the implementation of preventive protocols such as social distance and quarantine.
Conclusion: Attention to approaches which reduce social isolation in the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic is one of the important interventions that should be considered by government and policy makers to reduce the rate of harm in the elderly and consequently reduce health costs to compensate its side-affects.
