RESUMO

Telehealth services were rapidly adopted during the COVID-19 pandemic, but evidence regarding the effectiveness and feasibility of telehealth services in child and adolescent mental healthcare is sparse. This study aims to investigate feasibility, satisfaction, and goal attainment in video-delivered consultations in routine care child and adolescent psychiatry and psychotherapy. A total of 1046 patients from four university child and adolescent outpatient psychiatric clinics and one university outpatient unit for child and adolescent psychotherapy were screened for study participation. We examined a) the percentage of patients considered eligible for video-delivered consultation, b) clinicians', parents' and patients' satisfaction with video consultation, c) clinicians' ratings of goal attainment in video consultation, and d) factors associated with satisfaction and goal attainment. 59% of the screening sample (n = 621) fulfilled eligibility criteria and were considered eligible for video consultation. A total of 267 patients consented to participate in the study and received a video consultation. Clinicians reported high levels of satisfaction with video consultation and high levels of goal attainment in video consultations, especially for patients scheduled for initial patient assessments. Parents and patients were also highly satisfied with the video consultations, especially if patients had less severe emotional and behavioral problems. The present findings suggest that video consultations are a feasible and well-accepted alternative to in-person consultations in child and adolescent mental health care, especially for children with less severe symptoms and for children in early phases of assessment and treatment. Limitations include the lack of a control group. The study was registered at the German Clinical Trials Registry (DRKS00023525).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The infection protection measures adopted as part of the COVID-19 pandemic led to profound restrictions and changes in the social, (pre-) school, family, and leisure areas. The objective of the current study was to examine the mental burden of children and adolescents and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, this study aimed to identify possible factors that influence the mental burden. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The examinations were carried out between autumn 2020 and spring 2021 in a clinical sample (n = 280 patients aged 4-17 years) and a community sample (n = 1958 children and adolescents aged 4-19 years recruited via schools and preschools). Ratings of parents as well as children and adolescents via questionnaires were assessed. RESULTS: Mental burden due to the corona pandemic was assessed as slightly to moderately increased across both rating perspectives and both samples. Overall, around 60 to 70% of the parents, children, and adolescents describe an increase in mental burden; in contrast, up to 12% of parents as well as children and adolescents describe relief. When comparing both samples, a slightly higher burden on children and adolescents can only be seen in the self-assessment of the clinical sample. None of the socio-demographic factors analyzed influences the mental burden statistically significant. However, low to moderate correlations between the subjectively experienced deterioration in the family and social situation and an increased level of stress is found. DISCUSSION: Targeted interventions for exposed subgroups should be offered during a pandemic. Universal interventions are not indicated.
