Burden of care and its relationship with sleep quality of cancer patients’ caregivers: A descriptive-correlational study
Background
Nowadays, transferring care plans to the home, shifts the burden of care from medical staff to informal care providers that include family members, spouses, friends, or relatives.
Aims
This study aimed to assess the burden of care and its relationship with the sleep quality of cancer patients' caregivers.
Design
A descriptive-correlational study.
Methods
This study was conducted in a referral center for cancer in Zanjan province, northwest of Iran. 135 caregivers of cancer patients participated. The data were collected using a demographic characteristics questionnaire, Novak and Guest's caregiver burden inventory, and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI).
Results
The mean (±SD) burden of care and sleep quality of the participants was 45.22 (±17.75) and 8.88 (±4.21), respectively. A significant positive relationship between the burden of care and quality of sleep scores was detected.
Conclusions
Cancer patients' caregivers endure a remarkable burden of care and their quality of sleep is undesirable. Results indicated that an increase in the burden of care reduces the caregivers' quality of sleep. Reducing the burden of care is an effective strategy for improving the caregivers' quality of sleep.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
