Purpose: The COVID-19 outbreak and the quarantine period had important psychosocial consequences. This study aimed to reveal the effects of the outbreak on anxiety and depression symptoms in older people and the factors associated with these symptoms.
Materials and methods: Three hundred six people over the age of 65 were included in this study.
Sociodemographic data form containing questions related to COVID-19 such as whether there is a health
worker in their first-degree relatives, whether they have had COVID-19, whether there is a decrease in the
frequency of physical activity and Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) were applied in the online survey.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 69.46±4.69 (167 women, 54.6%). Twenty-nine (9.5%) of the
participants reported that they had COVID-19, and 247 (80.7%) reported that their physical activity decreased after the outbreak. The frequencies of those with above-threshold scores in depression and anxiety subscales were 28.8% and 28.4%, respectively. The frequency of above-threshold depression sypmtoms was less in those whose first-degree relatives are healthcare worker and more frequently in those with a decrease in daily physical activity. The frequency of above-threshold anxiety symptoms was more common in women, those living in rural areas, and those with low education. In the logistic regression analysis the decrease in physical activity after the epidemic predicted the presence of above-threshold depression symptoms; living in a rural area and having a shorter education level predicted the presence of above-threshold anxiety symptoms. In addition, having a first-degree relative of a healthcare worker was also found to be protective in terms of depression symptom risk.
Conclusion: The COVID-19 outbreak had negative psychological consequences on older adults. While taking
precautions to prevent these results, older people living in rural areas with low education should be targeted first, and physical activity should be increased. Knowing these results can guide the prevention and treatment of psychiatric disorders that may occur in older people.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada; uzmanlık eğitimi sonrasında perkütan nefrolitotomiyi (PNL) 2. basamak ilçe devlet
hastanesinde gerçekleştiren bir cerrahın başarı oranları ve karşılaşılan komplikasyonları değerlendirmek
amaçlandı.
Gereç ve yöntem: Ocak 2019 ile Ocak 2020 tarihleri arasında böbrek taşı olan 97 hastadaki 102 renal üniteye
2. basamak devlet hastanesinde PNL uygulandı. Tüm hastalara standart PNL 26 Fr rijit nefroskop ve pnömotik litotriptör kullanılarak prone pozisyonda uygulandı. Hastaların verileri retrospektif olarak toplandı. Başarı oranları, yatış süreleri, karşılaşılan komplikasyonlar literatür eşliğinde değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: PNL yapılan 97 hastanın yaş ortalaması 41,7±10,5 ve bu hastaların 54’ü (%55,7) erkek, 43’ü (%44,3)
kadındı. 42’si (%41,2) sol, 60’ı (%58,8) sağ böbrek olmak üzere 102 renal üniteye giriş sağlandı. Ortalama
taş yükü 8,3±5,5 cm2 ve ortalama taş sayısı 2,4 olarak tespit edildi. Operasyon süresi ortalama 85±32 dakika olarak ölçüldü. Skopi süresi ortalama 1,2±0,2 dakika olarak izlendi. Toplam 102 vakanın 86’sında (%84,3) taşsızlık sağlandı. Klinik önemsiz rezidüel fragmanlar (>4 mm) da dahil edildiğinde genel başarı oranı %93,1 idi. Hastaların hastanede kalış süresi 2,7 (1-11) gün olarak izlendi. Majör ve minör komplikasyon görülen hasta sayısı 21 (%20,6)’di.
Sonuç: PNL uzmanlık eğitimi sonrası 2. basamak ilçe devlet hastanelerinde literatürle uyumlu komplikasyon ve başarı oranları ile güvenli ve etkin bir şekilde uygulanabileceğini düşünmekteyiz.
