Abstract



Giriş: Palyatif hastasına
bakım vermek stresli ve zorlayıcı bir durum olup bakım verenin fiziksel,
duygusal, psikolojik ve sosyal refahını etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı
palyatif bakım hastasına bakım verenlerin depresyon, anksiyete ve stres
düzeylerinin ve bunları etkileyen faktörlerin incelenmesidir.



Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma Balıkesir
ve Edirne ilinde yer alan birer hastanenin palyatif bakım ünitesinde yatan
hastaların bakım verenleri (n=234) ile yürütülmüştür. Çalışma Nisan 2018 ve
Ocak 2019 tarihleri arasında yürütülmüştür. Veriler sosyo-demografik veri
toplama formu ve Depresyon Anksiyete Stres Ölçeği (DASÖ) ile toplanmıştır.



Bulgular: Çalışmada da palyatif hastasına bakım verenlerin %20,1’inde ileri ve çok
ileri düzeyde depresyon saptanmıştır. Bu değer 
anksiyete  için %32, stres için
%12,4 düzeyindedir. Kronik hastalığı olan ve hasta ile aynı yerde ikamet
edenlerde DASÖ puanı daha yüksek düzeyde bulunmuştur.



Sonuç: Palyatif hastasına bakım verenlere psikososyal destek
sağlanması hem hasta hem de bakım verenin yaşam kalitesini arttırabilir. Sadece
hastaya değil bakım verene de gerekli müdahalelerin yapılması önerilmektedir.

Depression, anxiety and stress levels in caregivers of palliative patients: a descriptive, cross-sectional study

Year 2019, Volume: 4 Issue: 3, 120 - 125, 31.12.2019
https://doi.org/10.22391/fppc.532571

Abstract

Introduction: Caregiving of the palliative patient is a stressful
and challenging condition, affecting the caregiver’s physical, emotional,
psychological, and social well-being. This study aimed to determine depression,
anxiety, and stress levels of the caregivers of palliative care patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with
caregivers (n=234) in a palliative care unit of a hospital in Balıkesir and
Edirne between April 2018 and January 2019. The data were collected by a
socio-demographic questionnaire and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS).

Results: Severe and extremely severe depression was detected in
20.1% of the caregivers of palliative patients.
Anxiety and
stress were found in 32% and 12.4% of the respondents, respectively. The
DASS score was higher in participants who had a chronic disease or were living with the
patients
.







Conclusions: Providing psychosocial support
to caregivers of palliative patients may improve the quality of life of both
the patients and the caregivers. Necessary interventions are recommended not
only to the patients but also to the caregivers.
