BACKGROUND
The caregivers of patients with covid-19 face constant responsibilities such as providing personal, health, and social care to family, which can be physically, and emotionally exhausting resulting in a considerable stress burden. Therefore, given the importance of the subject, this study aimed to investigate the burden of disease dimensions (time-dependent, developmental, physical, social and emotional) among family caregivers with covid-19 patients in Iran.
METHODS
This cross-sectional study was conducted one year after the onset of the Covid-19 outbreak in Iran. Family caregivers of Covid-19 patients discharged from the hospitals in Kerman city, Iran, were chosen by simple randomization (n = 1500). Data were collected utilizing a demographic characteristics inventory created by the researcher as well as the Novak and Guest Caregiver Burden Inventory. Descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviations, frequency, and percentages and analytical statistics such as Kolmogorov-Smirnov, T-test, ANOVA, and Multivariate Linear Regression were used for data analysis using the 20, SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL Software at the level of P < 0.05.
RESULTS
The results demonstrated that the mean score of family caregiver burden was 2.61±0.6 and the severity of this burden was in a moderate range. The finding showed a statistical difference was seen between the family caregiver burden mean score of participants in terms of gender, duration of treatment, age and employed status. The multivariable linear regression model showed demographic variables of caregivers included (female, married, employed, elderly, low income and poor education) had a beneficial influence on family caregiver burden.
CONCLUSION
The findings of this study can increase the awareness of health managers, about the level of burden of disease among family caregivers from the covid-19 patients and can help to provide economic, social and psychological support programs for improvement and reducing the burden of disease of caregivers during the covid-19 outbreaks.
背景
新冠患者的照顾者面临着持续的责任，如为家人提供个人、健康和社会护理，这可能会在身体和情感上带来疲惫，导致相当大的压力负担。因此，考虑到这个问题的重要性，本研究旨在调查伊朗新冠患者家庭照顾者的疾病负担维度（时间依赖性、发展性、身体性、社会性和情感性）。
方法
这是一项在新冠疫情在伊朗爆发一年后进行的横断面研究。通过简单随机抽样（n=1500）选择了来自伊朗克尔曼市医院出院的新冠患者的家庭照顾者。使用研究者创建的人口统计学特征清单以及 Novak 和 Guest 照顾者负担清单收集数据。使用 20 版 SPSS Inc.，芝加哥，IL 软件进行数据分析，采用描述性统计（如均值和标准差、频率和百分比）和分析性统计（如 Kolmogorov-Smirnov、T 检验、方差分析和多元线性回归），P<0.05。
结果
结果表明，家庭照顾者负担的平均得分为 2.61±0.6，负担程度处于中度范围。研究结果显示，参与者的家庭照顾者负担平均得分在性别、治疗持续时间、年龄和就业状况方面存在统计学差异。多元线性回归模型显示，照顾者的人口统计学变量（女性、已婚、就业、年龄较大、收入低和教育程度低）对家庭照顾者负担有积极影响。
结论
本研究的结果可以提高卫生管理人员对新冠患者家庭照顾者疾病负担水平的认识，并有助于在新冠疫情期间为改善和减轻照顾者的疾病负担提供经济、社会和心理支持计划。
