Currently, information on factors associated with anxiety in family caregivers of children with chronic diseases is unavailable, indicating a significant gap in the literature. Therefore, this study aims to identify the psychosocial and sociodemographic variables associated with anxiety in family caregivers of children with chronic diseases.
In 2018, a nonprobability sample of 446 family caregivers was recruited at the National Institute of Health in Mexico City. The participants completed a sociodemographic variable questionnaire, clinical questions, and 18 psychosocial assessment scales, including a scale to assess family caregiver anxiety.
Family caregiver anxiety was correlated with almost all psychosocial variables and one out of three clinical variables but with none of the sociodemographic variables. Furthermore, a multiple linear regression model with five psychosocial variables was established to predict family caregiver anxiety.
Some psychosocial variables have effects on caregiver anxiety that are relevant for interventions. Clinical interventions should be implemented based on the psychosocial variables associated with family caregiver anxiety.
目前，关于慢性病患儿家庭照顾者焦虑相关因素的信息尚不可得，这表明文献中存在重大空白。因此，本研究旨在确定慢性病患儿家庭照顾者焦虑相关的心理社会和社会人口学变量。
2018年，在墨西哥城的国家卫生研究所招募了446名家庭照顾者的非概率样本。参与者完成了一份社会人口学变量问卷、临床问题以及18项心理社会评估量表，包括一项评估家庭照顾者焦虑的量表。
家庭照顾者焦虑与几乎所有心理社会变量以及三个临床变量中的一个相关，但与任何社会人口学变量均无关联。此外，建立了一个包含五个心理社会变量的多元线性回归模型来预测家庭照顾者焦虑。
一些心理社会变量对照顾者焦虑有影响，这些影响与干预措施相关。应基于与家庭照顾者焦虑相关的心理社会变量实施临床干预。
