Abstract

Topic

The COVID-19 pandemic affected adolescents' physical and psychological health. There must be specific services to cater to the needs of adolescents during COVID-19 in Indonesia. Lessons learned from previous pandemics will be beneficial for nurses and other health professionals to prepare services for future pandemics.

Purpose

This mixed-method study aimed to examine 459 Indonesian adolescents' health, literacy, preventive measures, and preferred health services during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study also examines sociodemographics, respondent characteristics, health information sources, and media choices.

Results

A total of 47.5% of adolescents knew about COVID-19, 26.8% experienced physical health changes, and 61.7% considered wearing masks. Adolescent health information came from teachers (26.6%) and the Internet (32.9%). Psychological changes showed 67.8% irritation. Indonesians preferred online counseling (53.8%) and WhatsApp (45.8%) for pandemic health services. COVID-19 literacy did not affect physical or mental health (p > 0.05).

Conclusions

Most adolescents reported mental and physical health changes during COVID-19. Our data suggest that adolescents' strong COVID−19 knowledge did not prevent anxiety and other psychological difficulties. The longitudinal studies could be utilized if pandemic demands social and physical distance. The government, as well as nurses, might utilize WhatsApp-based remote online treatment for health services.

印度尼西亚 COVID-19 课程：关于大流行病期间青少年健康状况和医疗服务的混合方法研究。

主题COVID-19 大流行影响了青少年的身心健康。在印尼发生 COVID-19 期间，必须有专门的服务来满足青少年的需求。目的：这项混合方法研究旨在调查 459 名印尼青少年在 COVID-19 大流行期间的健康状况、识字率、预防措施和首选医疗服务。本研究还考察了社会人口学、受访者特征、健康信息来源和媒体选择：结果：47.5%的青少年知道 COVID-19，26.8%的青少年经历了身体健康变化，61.7%的青少年考虑佩戴口罩。青少年的健康信息来自教师（26.6%）和互联网（32.9%）。67.8%的人受到心理变化的刺激。印尼人更喜欢在线咨询（53.8%）和 WhatsApp（45.8%）提供的大流行病健康服务。COVID-19扫盲并不影响身心健康（P > 0.05）：大多数青少年在 COVID-19 期间报告了身心健康的变化。我们的数据表明，青少年对 COVID-19 的深入了解并不能预防焦虑和其他心理问题。如果大流行病需要社会和身体上的距离，可以利用纵向研究。政府和护士可以利用基于 WhatsApp 的远程在线治疗来提供健康服务。
