dc.description.abstract | The study aims to compare caregiver burden levels of mothers of children with cerebral palsy (CP) to mothers with healthy children. Methods: Participants comprised 40 mothers of children with CP (Group 1), and controls comprised 40 mothers with healthy children(Group 2). Caregiver burden inventory (CBI), hospital anxiety depression scale (HADS) were applied. The functional status of children with CP was evaluated by the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS). Secondary problems accompanying CP were also noted. Results: A secondary problem was seen in 75% of children with CP. The caregiver burden (CB) and the frequency of depression among Group 1 mothers were significantly higher than Group 2 mothers (p<0,001). CB was found to be higher in children with CP with poor functional status. The CB of caregivers in children with CP with secondary problems was significantly higher than the mothers of children without secondary problems (p<0.05). Conclusion: CP causes a higher burden on care for mothers than on healthy children, and at the same time, more frequent depression is observed in these mothers. Long-term prospective studies are needed to investigate the possible effects of the time shift in the functional status of patients with CP on the CB. | |
