Abstract(s)
The family caregiver role is
highly demanding and very likely
to trigger burden. A systematic
literature review was conducted
in order to identify effective
interventions for the prevention/
reduction of the family
caregiver burden. A search was
conducted in SCOPUS, Web of
Science and EBSCO databases
from 2006 to 2016. Ten studies
were selected involving different
interventions (educational, psychoeducational,
psycho-social
and psycho-socio-educational).
Despite the positive results of
the different types of approach,
the educational and multicomponent
programmes revealed
the most favorable outcomes.
Considering the methodological
heterogeneity observed,
multi-center, longitudinal,
prospective, controlled and
mixed methodology studies
should be carried out, leading
to high-quality evidence-based
results.
