Abstract

Background and Aim: Covid-19 pandemic has caused significant disruptions in the provision of non-communicable disease prevention and management services in many countries and there is a concern that this disorder will lead to long-term complications of these diseases; This study aimed to quantitatively analyze the status of some prevention and management services of non-communicable diseases in the primary health care system of Iran during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Materials and Methods: In this study, the routine data of 8 services related to the prevention and management of non-communicable diseases in the integrated electronic health record system (SIB) within 10 months after the outbreak of Covid-19 were compared to the same period last year.
Results: Non-communicable disease prevention and management services have decreased by an average of 18.89% compared to the same period last year; this decrease was much more severe at the beginning of the epidemic period (up to 75% in some services) and more in the services provided by physicians than in the services provided by non-physicians. Also, observation of the course of selected services during this period showed that after the initial reduction of services, a process of gradual compensation is evident.
Conclusion: like other areas involved in the pandemic, the effect of the Covid-19 epidemic on non-communicable disease prevention and management services in the primary health care system of Iran, has been significant and although partial compensation of some services is promising, more attention and effort is needed to revive the other programs.

Abstract

Background and Aim: Evidence shows that COVID-19 pandemic affects non-communicable diseases (NCDs), significantly. This study aimed to analyze the status of prevention and management services of NCDs at the level of primary health care (PHC) system during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Materials and Methods: In this situation analysis study, first the circulars communicated at the level of PHC system from beginning of the pandemic to the end of September 2020 were manually and electronically retrieved, and those which included a decision or action in terms of governance and coordination mechanisms to provide NCDs in crisis and reopening stages, were analyzed. Then, the plans of major NCDs services in low-risk, intermediate, and high-risk conditions were developed and finalized based on the circulars. Finally, situation analysis was performed using SWOT analysis, and proposed strategies were extracted.
Results: 25 out of 199 circulars were analyzed. In the crisis phase, most screening, risk assessment and diagnostic services were suspended, and the follow-ups and care of patients with NCDs were mainly done by telephone. In the reopening phase, general strategies were adopted to increase capacity and to compensate delayed care, and the plan of major NCDs services at the PHC system was developed in the three-pandemic settings. Finally, main strategies were proposed with integration approach and focusing on essential services, considering vulnerable groups and the use of E-health technologies.
Conclusion: The results indicated an interruption in NCDs services during the crisis phase, while adopting strategies to respond to the pandemic. Revision of the COVID-19 guides with a particular focus on NCDs prevention and management services is recommended in national response plan.
