Culturally Adapted STAR-Caregivers Virtual Training and Follow-Up for Latino Caregivers of People Living With Dementia: Single-Arm Pre-Post Mixed Methods Study

Culturally Adapted STAR-Caregivers Virtual Training and Follow-Up for Latino Caregivers of People Living With Dementia: Single-Arm Pre-Post Mixed Methods Study

Although evidence-based caregiver interventions exist to help address the negative impacts of caregiver burden, they often do not meet the unique cultural needs of Latino families [8]. Due to the negative health implications of dementia caregiving, it is crucial to support Latino caregivers through culturally adapted, evidence-based interventions.

Size and Composition of Caregiver Networks Who Manage Medications for Persons Living With Dementia: Cross-Sectional Analysis of the 2011-2022 National Health and Aging Trends Study

Size and Composition of Caregiver Networks Who Manage Medications for Persons Living With Dementia: Cross-Sectional Analysis of the 2011-2022 National Health and Aging Trends Study

Most prior studies have focused on medication management by family caregivers in the dementia dyad (eg, one person living with dementia and one family caregiver), but recent literature has highlighted the importance of caregiver networks in managing the care of persons living with dementia [10]. Caregiver networks can be defined as a cohesive network of family and friends who provide support to the persons living with dementia [11].

Advancing Remote Monitoring for Patients With Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias: Systematic Review

Advancing Remote Monitoring for Patients With Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias: Systematic Review

In addition to that, they must navigate between caregiver responsibilities and sustaining a work-life balance. Disputes between family members, financial burdens, and escalating medical expenses extend the challenges that those undertaking caregiver roles face [10]. While existing research has identified various scales to measure the burden on family members, there is a notable gap in the literature concerning effective strategies to alleviate this burden.

SEARCH Study: Text Messages and Automated Phone Reminders for HPV Vaccination in Uganda: Randomized Controlled Trial

SEARCH Study: Text Messages and Automated Phone Reminders for HPV Vaccination in Uganda: Randomized Controlled Trial

A countrywide evaluation of HPV vaccination in Uganda highlighted the need for caregiver engagement to improve HPV vaccination rates. It was also noted that there was an inadequate follow-up system for second doses [14,15]. Text messaging or SMS text messaging offers low-cost, scalable opportunities to foster vaccination across a population.

Enhancing Self-Management Support Apps for Spinal Cord Injury: The Missing Role of Caregivers

Enhancing Self-Management Support Apps for Spinal Cord Injury: The Missing Role of Caregivers

However, I would like to highlight a critical aspect that may warrant further consideration: the exclusion of caregiver-centered apps. Many patients with SCI, particularly those with cervical injuries, experience severe functional limitations that hinder their ability to independently use self-management apps.

Identifying Unmet Needs of Informal Dementia Caregivers in Clinical Practice: User-Centered Development of a Digital Assessment Tool

Identifying Unmet Needs of Informal Dementia Caregivers in Clinical Practice: User-Centered Development of a Digital Assessment Tool

The authors selected different assessment versions aiming to cover all biopsychosocial aspects and compared different scales for caregiver burden. The need items were then compared and matched with the list of informal caregiver interventions from previous studies—these were marked according to a match or no match. This allowed the calculation of percentages of “items covered” from the dementia caregiver intervention list for each version of questionnaires.

Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

We sought to collect a range of perspectives on caregiver stress and support in the NICU, so we recruited both currently admitted and discharged parents and legal guardians of preterm babies in the NICU. We also aimed to include other types of caregivers in this study, such as extended family members who had spent significant time in the NICU.

Cooperative Virtual Reality Gaming for Anxiety and Pain Reduction in Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers During Painful Medical Procedures: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Cooperative Virtual Reality Gaming for Anxiety and Pain Reduction in Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers During Painful Medical Procedures: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

If a medical procedure causes intense fear or pain, it can strain the caregiver-child relationship, especially if the child perceives the caregivers as siding with medical staff instead of supporting them—for example, by helping to physically restrain the child [7]. As a result, anxiety, stress, and pain of patient and caregiver can mutually depend on and reinforce each other [8].

Employers’ Perspectives of Caregiver-Friendly Workplace Policies for Caregiver-Employees Caring for Older Adults in Hong Kong: Thematic Analysis

Employers’ Perspectives of Caregiver-Friendly Workplace Policies for Caregiver-Employees Caring for Older Adults in Hong Kong: Thematic Analysis

Although several studies have identified caregiver burden as a significant risk factor for burnout and poor mental health outcomes among family caregivers [11,13,14], stronger filial piety may lead to lower caregiver burden [15,16]. A systematic review of 12 studies showed a significant negative correlation (r=–0.23) and association (β=–0.27) between filial piety and caregiver burden among adult children [15].
