Abstract

Objective: To identify factors associated with burden of caregivers of elderly people with dementia. Method: A descriptive study of quantitative nature, composed of 50 caregivers and 50 elderly assisted at the Western Region Polyclinic, in the period from August to December 2019. The scales used to assess the burden were: sociodemographic questionnaire, QASCI and Zarit Scale. For the assessment of the dependence of the elderly: Pfeffer and Katz Scale. The statistical analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 20.0 and descriptive analysis was made with Kruskal-Wallis and Chi-square tests. Result: From the 50 caregivers interviewed, 26% presented light burden, 42% moderate and 32% severe. As for the elderly, 8% were independent, 32% were partially dependent and 60% were totally dependent. Conclusion: It was observed that the caregivers' burden is significantly related to the time dedicated to the care and to the level of dependence of the elderly.
