Resumen
PALOMO-LLINARES, Rubén; SANCHEZ-TORMO, Julia y PALOMO-LLINARES, Benjamín. Temporal trends in Home Care Services search patterns before and after COVID-19. Hosp. domic. [online]. 2021, vol.5, n.4, pp.187-195. Epub 22-Nov-2021. ISSN 2530-5115. https://dx.doi.org/10.22585/hospdomic.v5i4.148.
Objetive:
To analyze the temporal trends of the information search patterns on Home Care Services through Google Trends before and after the appearance of COVID-19.
Method:
Ecological and correlational study. The data were obtained from direct queries in the «Google Trends» tool. Search term: “Home Care Services.” Date of consultation 01-09-2021.
Results:
The maximum number of searches was reached in January 2020, coinciding with the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pre-COVID period, a seasonality was observed in the interest of the population (ADF: - 0.49; * p> 0.05) that disappeared with the emergence of COVID-19 (ADF: -8.55; p < 0.05). The comparison of the medians showed statistically significant differences before and after COVID (KW: 31.15; *** p-value < 0.001).
Conclusions:
It has been shown that the appearance of COVID-19 has been a significant milestone regarding the general population’s interest in Home Care Services.
