Background: In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, various problems were experienced by the elderly, especially those with degenerative diseases, as the population most at risk of being exposed to COVID-19. The elderly are vulnerable to decreased physical, mental and social health; therefore, a new and effective strategy is needed to improve healthy living behavior in this population. This study aimed to analyze the effect of the Charitas Group virtual health education program on improving the quality of life of the elderly with degenerative diseases in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The One Group Pretest-Posttest Pre-Experimental study was with a sample of 33 patients selected by purposive sampling in May - July 2021. The data collection was taken using the World Health Organization Quality of Life – Bref (WHOQOL-Bref) form, translated and validated into Bahasa Indonesia. The data was then compared before and after the intervention and analyzed using the Paired Samples T-Test. Results: The T-Test showed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results  (p-value 0.041 < 0.05). At the same time, the other T-Test results showed a significant influence on the quality of life of the elderly in the specific domains, namely:  Psychological (p-value 0.025), Social Relationship (p-value 0.033)  and  Environmental  (p-value 0.034). Conclusions: The Charitas Group virtual health education program significantly influences the quality of life of elderly people with degenerative diseases in the COVID-19 pandemic era.

Abstract Background Patients with renal failure had poorer quality of life than patients with other chronic diseases such as heart failure, diabetes mellitus and even cancer which makes them more susceptible to withdraw dialysis treatment.

Methods A controlled interventional study was carried out on three phases. A sample of 56 patients on chronic regular hemodialysis and their caregivers (HD) were selected from the two hemodialysis units at Ain Shams university hospital and data were collected at the beginning and after six months of the health education program. Results The intervention group of the patients after the intervention reported significant better quality of life scores than the control group in all the domains except in work status, quality of social interaction, sexual function, social support and patient satisfaction and there were statistically significant increases in the intervention group of the caregivers than the control group in social function, emotional well-being, role emotional and mental component summary scores.
