          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the correlation between measures of quality of life and burden in family caregivers of infants with cleft lip and palate and to analyze possible associations between quality of life and sociodemographic variables. Method: Exploratory, cross-sectional study conducted in hospital specialized in the treatment of craniofacial anomalies, with caregivers who answered the following data collection instruments: sociodemographic characterization form, World Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF questionnaire and the Burden Interview Scale. The statistical analysis was conducted using the Pearson’s Correlation test, the Student’s t-test and the ANOVA test with a level of significance of 0.05. Results: 77 caregivers participated in the study. There was an inverse correlation between quality of life and burden in the Physical Health, Psychological, Social Relationships and Environment domains. There was a positive correlation between quality of life and family income in the Environment domain. Conclusion: The greater the burden on the caregiver, the lower was their perception of quality of life. Caregivers with higher family income and greater level of education presented a better perception quality of life in the Environment domain.

Método: Estudo exploratório, transversal, realizado em um hospital de referência no tratamento de anomalias craniofaciais, com cuidadores que responderam aos seguintes instrumentos de coleta dos dados: formulário para caracterização sociodemográfica, questionário World Health Organization Quality of Life - Bref e escala Burden Interview. Para a análise estatística foram utilizados os testes de Correlação de Pearson, t de Student e Anova, com nível de significância de 0,05. Resultados: Participaram 77 cuidadores. Constatou-se correlação inversa entre as medidas de qualidade de vida e sobrecarga nos domínios Físico, Psicológico, Relações Sociais e Meio Ambiente. Entre qualidade de vida e renda familiar, verificou-se correlação positiva com o domínio Meio Ambiente. Conclusão: No grupo estudado, quanto maior era a sobrecarga da cuidadora, menor era a sua percepção da qualidade de vida. Cuidadores com maior renda familiar e maior escolaridade apresentaram melhor percepção da qualidade de vida referente ao domínio Meio Ambiente.

          Brazilian version of the Burden Interview scale for the assessment of burden of care in carers of people with mental illnesses

          INTRODUCTION: Burden on informal carers of people with mental or physical illnesses has been studied for a long time. Several standardized instruments for the assessment of carer's burden have been developed. The Burden Interview is one of the most frequently used instruments. The aim of the present study is to examine the internal consistency and validity of the Brazilian version of the Burden Interview, designed to examine the burden in carers of individuals with mental illnesses. METHODS: Carers of patients with a diagnosis of depression, aged 60 or over, were assessed for burden (Burden Interview), emotional distress (SRQ-20) and their perception of patients' behavioral and mood disturbances (Behavioral and Mood Disturbance Scale - BMD). Socio-demographic information of patients and carers was collected with a standardized form. The reliability of the Burden Interview was assessed through its internal consistency. Construct validity was assessed through the exam of the associations of carers' burden with their perception of patients' behavioral and mood disturbances, and the carers' burden with carers' distress. RESULTS: Eighty-two carers of elderly patients with depression were included, being forty-eight (58,5%) women. The internal consistency was good, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.87. The associations between total scores of the Burden Interview and total scores of the SRQ-20 (r=0.37, p=0.001), and between total scores of the Burden Interview with total scores of BMD (r=0.54, p=0.001) were strong, and similar to other studies that examined those associations, indicating a good construct validity of the Brazilian version of the Burden Interview. DISCUSSION: The Brazilian version of the Burden Interview is a standardized and valid instrument that can be used in the study of the impact of mental and physical illnesses on informal carers.
