Abstract

Background: People with intellectual disabilities (IDs) and their caregivers face difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, limited studies have comprehensively investigated their challenges, especially in Japan. We aimed to clarify the concerns and needs of people with IDs and their caregivers during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. Method: From March to August 2021, 27 in-depth interviews were conducted with principal caregivers of people with moderate to profound IDs in Japan. We then transcribed the interviews and conducted deductive coding using predetermined codes focused on their daily life difficulties. Inductive coding was used to ensure that no important themes were overlooked. Results: We found four concerns and four needs among people with IDs and their caregivers as significant themes. Conclusions: Our results provide useful information for supporting people with IDs and their caregivers, especially among those who need medical or social care in accordance with the infection control and social-distancing policies.

日本新冠肺炎大流行期间智障人士及其护理人员的关注和需求

在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间，智障人士及其照顾者面临着困难。然而，有限的研究全面调查了他们面临的挑战，特别是在日本。我们的目的是澄清日本COVID-19大流行期间身份证持有者及其照顾者的担忧和需求。方法于2021年3月至8月，对日本中度至重度id患者的主要照顾者进行27次深度访谈。然后，我们将访谈记录下来，并使用预先确定的代码对他们的日常生活困难进行演绎编码。采用归纳编码来确保没有忽略任何重要主题。结果在身份证患者及其照顾者中，我们发现了四种关注和四种需求是重要的主题。结论本研究结果为支持身份证感染者及其照护者，特别是根据感染控制和社会距离政策需要医疗或社会护理的人员提供了有用的信息。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
