“…Regarding self-reported health status in this study, 78.3% of the population reported that they were in good, very good, or excellent health. In general, these results corroborate the findings from a previous study that also estimated perceived Hrqol in the Colombian adult population (15). However, the authors used the Eq-5d 3 level version by the EuroQol group and found that around 70% of the population reported being "completely healthy" (15).…”

Objective The aim of this study was to estimate values of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) by focusing on the physical and mental health of an adult population sample in the city of Barranquilla, Colombia.Materials and methods Cross-sectional study with 368 adults representing an adult population. The questionnaires included the health-related quality of life “CDC-Healthy Days”, the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale, and the Overall Disability Sum Score. The prevalence of fair or poor health status (FPH), frequent physical distress (FPD), frequent mental distress (FMD), and frequent activity limitation (FAL) was estimated according to socio-demographic characteristics, presence of depression, and physical disability.Results The mean age of 368 adults was 45.6 ± 18.3 years; 55.7% were males. Only 21% of this population considered their general health to be fair or poor. The prevalence of FPH, FPD, FMD and FAL was higher in women than in men, and increased with greater severity of depression and higher physical disability. Moreover, 12% of the population presented with mild depression, 3.8% with moderate depression, and less than 1% with severe depression. 94% of this population did not have an arms or legs disability.Discussion This study provides HRQOL values for an adult sample of the population of Barranquilla, Colombia. Overall, the HRQOL of this population, with subtle differences, is similar to other reports from Colombia. In general, women and people with depression and physical disabilities had a worse quality of life.

“…The participants reported low scores for both physical and mental global health in comparison with normative values for the general population in Colombia, which has been estimated at around 80 on a scale of 0 to 100 using different measurements (Finck et al, 2012;Rojas-Reyes et al, 2017). Bogotá showed better mental HRQoL, in comparison with Medellín, which can be related with a lower intensity in armed conflict in the capital.…”

This study aimed to assess the relationships between socioeconomic position, perceived stress and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) of patients with hypertension. Data were obtained using the baseline survey of 258 patients from the Social Determinants and Inequities in the Control of Blood Hypertension Program (ProDSICHA). HRQoL was measured with SF-8 Health Survey. Socioeconomic position was measured using education, and the MacArthur Scale. Stress was measured with Perceived Stress Scale. A higher educational level was associated with a higher perception of stress (Coeff = 0.78, p = 0.019). Also, a lower position in the community was associated with a higher perception of stress (Coeff = −0.56, p = 0.027). A higher level of perceived stress was associated with a higher level of mental health (Coeff = 0.64, p = 0.000). No statistical differences were found in the relations between socioeconomic position and physical HRQoL. These findings warrant further research to understand the role of socioeconomic position in physical HRQoL.

“…Asimismo, se encontró similar afectación en las dimensiones de dolor/malestar (33%) y ansiedad/depresión (28%) en otro estudio con migrantes en Inglaterra (30) . Sin embargo, en un estudio realizado en migrantes rurales mayores (edad promedio de 63 años) en China (31) , así como en estudios poblacionales en Perú (25) , Brasil (32) , Colombia (33) , y Chile (34) , si bien estas dos dimensiones suelen ser las más afectadas, la dimensión de dolor/malestar es más afectada que ansiedad/depresión.…”

“…Un poco más de la mitad de migrantes venezolanos trabaja más de nueve horas diarias, y poco más de un tercio percibe un ingreso económico mensual menor o igual a 500 soles mensuales. Este ingreso es menor a la remuneración mínima vital (cantidad mínima de dinero que se debería recibir por una jornada laboral completa en Perú), que es 930 soles mensuales (36) , y sería insuficiente para satisfacer la canasta básica familiar en el Perú, que se estima en 521 soles por persona (33) . Esto puede deberse a que la mayoría de los migrantes no cuentan con permisos para trabajar en Perú, de manera que se ven forzados a aceptar empleos informales con un ingreso mensual bajo.…”

Rev Peru Med Exp Salud Publica. 2019;36(3):383-91. doi: http://dx. RESUMENObjetivos. Describir la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CdV) de migrantes venezolanos que residen en las ciudades de Chimbote y Nuevo Chimbote en Perú y evaluar sus factores asociados. Materiales y métodos. Estudio transversal en 212 migrantes venezolanos reclutados por muestreo tipo bola de nieve. La CdV fue evaluada con el European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions en tres niveles (EQ-5D-3L). Los resultados fueron presentados descriptivamente. Para evaluar los factores asociados a CdV se emplearon regresiones lineales y regresiones ajustadas de Poisson. Resultados. El porcentaje de participantes afectados en cada dimensión de CdV fue: movilidad (1,4%), autocuidado (0,5%), actividades cotidianas (2,4%), dolor/malestar (18,4%) y ansiedad/depresión (68,9%). En cuanto a la Escala Visual Análoga (EVA) de CdV, la mediana del puntaje fue 85 (RIC: 70 a 90). Al evaluar los factores asociados, se encontró que ninguno de los factores evaluados se asoció al puntaje en la EVA o a presentar dolor/malestar. Sin embargo, la frecuencia de presentar ansiedad/depresión fue mayor en aquellos con grado de instrucción superior universitario en comparación con aquellos con estudios de secundaria (Razón de prevalencias ajustada 1,28; IC 95%: 1,03 a 1,60). Conclusiones. Los migrantes venezolanos que participaron del estudio reportaron problemas en su CdV, más de dos terceras partes reportaron ansiedad/depresión, y uno de cada seis presentó dolor/malestar. La frecuencia de presentar ansiedad/depresión fue mayor en aquellos con instrucción universitaria. ABSTRACT Objectives.To describe the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of Venezuelan migrants residing in the cities of Chimbote and Nuevo Chimbote, in Peru, and assess its associated factors. Materials and Methods. Cross-sectional study of 212 Venezuelan migrants recruited by snowball sampling. The QoL was evaluated with the European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions at three levels (EQ-5D-3L). The results were presented descriptively. Linear regressions and Poisson adjusted regressions were used to evaluate the factors associated with QoL. Results. The percentage of participants affected in each QoL dimension was: mobility (1.4%), self-care (0.5%), usual activities (2.4%), pain/discomfort (18.4%), and anxiety/depression (68.9%). As for the QoL Visual Analog Scale (VAS), the median score was 85 (RIC: 70-90). In evaluating the associated factors, it was found that none of the factors was associated with the VAS score or pain/ discomfort. However, the frequency of anxiety/depression was higher in those with higher education (university) level compared to those with secondary education (RR 1.28; 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.60). Conclusions. Venezuelan migrants who participated in the study reported problems in their QoL; more than two-thirds reported anx...
