Introduction: Cancer is one of the most common chronic diseases whose caregivers are
confronted with related problems to caring and treating the cancer patients. Caregiver burden,
which is resulted from the negative impact of living with the cancer patient along with
inappropriate use of coping strategies, which could lead to rejection diagnosis, can be accounted
as the reasons of why the treatment and health would be impaired. The present study was aimed
to determine the relationship between caregiver burden and coping strategies of caregivers of
cancer patients.
Method: In this cross-sectional study, 133 caregivers of cancer patients who referred to
Gorgon's 5th Azar Educative and Therapeutic Center were selected via Census sampling method.
Data were gathered by three-part questionnaire, including demographics checklist, caregiver
burden and coping strategies questionnaire. In order to analyze the collected data, SPSS V. 16
software with descriptive statistics was applied also, the analysis of variance and logistic
regression were conducted. In addition, statistical significance was defined as p< 0.05.
Results: mean and standard deviation of caregivers' age was 35.73±14.31. And, 50.4% of all
the participants were male. Based on the results taken from multivariate model of logistic
regression, high care demand (OR=0.403, %95 CI: 0.227 - 0.714) and higher rate of emotional
coping strategies use (OR=1.09, %95CI: 1.04 - 1.15) have significant correlation with caregiver
burden.
Conclusion: Caregivers who have less caregiver burden are those who use problem-focused
coping strategies methods more. Therefore, to reduce the caregiver burden of caregivers,
appropriate methods of coping strategies should be taught to the caregivers.
