老年期痴呆照顾者照顾感受与疲劳的相关性

摘要

Objective To explore the relationships between the fatigue of senile dementia caregivers and care burden and positive feelings,so as to make a reference for reducing the fatigue of caregivers.Methods 190 caregivers of senile dementia were investigated by the questionnaires of Caregivers Burden Inventory ( CBI ) , Positive Aspects of Caregiving ( PAC ) and Fatigue Scale-14 ( FS-14 ).Results The mean score of burden,positive feelings and fatigue of dementia caregivers were (51.18±8.90),(29.20±5.48) and(7.95±2.72) respective-ly,and the fatigue of dementia caregivers was positively correlated with burden (r=0.56,P<0.01) and negatively correlated with positive feelings(r=-0.33,P<0.01).Conclusions The fatigue of senile dementia caregivers may be increased by burden and decreased by positive feelings.In order to reduce caregivers'fatigue,further interventions should be provided to senile dementia caregivers ,which may promote the caregiving quality for dementia.%目的：探讨老年期痴呆照顾者的照顾感受与疲劳的相关性。方法运用照顾者负担量表（ CBI）、照顾者积极感受量表（ PAC）和疲劳量表（FS-14）对重庆市190名老年期痴呆照顾者进行问卷调查。结果老年期痴呆照顾者的照顾负担、积极感受和疲劳得分分别为（51.18±8.90）分、（29.20±5.48）分、（7.95±2.72）分；照顾者疲劳与照顾负担呈显著的正相关（r＝0.56，P＜0.01）、与积极感受呈显著的负相关（r＝－0.33，P＜0.01）。结论老年期痴呆照顾者沉重的照顾负担会加重疲劳，而增加积极感受可减轻疲劳。积极采取有效、可行的护理措施减轻照顾者负担、增加积极感受可能会缓解照顾者的疲劳状况，进而提高对老年期痴呆患者的照顾质量。
