| Abstract | espanolSe conoce poco acerca del impacto que tiene la hospitalizacion de los pacientes con exacerbacion aguda de la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva cronica (EPOC) en la salud mental de sus cuidadores. El objetivo de este estudio de tipo descriptivo transversal fue determinar las tasas y factores asociados a sintomas de ansiedad en los cuidadores de pacientes hospitalizados por exacerbacion aguda de EPOC (EAEPOC). Se midieron sintomas de ansiedad relacionados con cuatro dominios (contexto del cuidado, demandas del cuidado, recursos del cuidador y caracteristicas del paciente) en 87 cuidadores de pacientes hospitalizados por EAEPOC. Se utilizaron regresiones logisticas multiples univariadas y multivariadas para determinar los factores protectores de la ansiedad durante la hospitalizacion. De los 87 participantes, 50 cuidadores presentaron sintomas de ansiedad durante la hospitalizacion. La sobrecarga del cuidador, la fragilidad y el grado de limitacion del flujo aereo fueron los factores independientes mas fuertes asociados a la ansiedad del cuidador durante la hospitalizacion. EnglishFactors associated with anxiety in caregivers of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) during their hospitalization. Little is known about the impact that hospitalization of patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has on the mental health of their caregivers. The purpose of this cross-sectional descriptive study was to determine rates and factors associated with symptoms of anxiety in caregivers of patients hospitalized for acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD). Anxiety symptoms related to four domains (context of care, caregiving demands, caregiver resources, and patient characteristics) were measured in 87 caregivers of patients hospitalized for AECOPD. We used univariate and multivariate multiple logistic regressions to determine protective factors of anxiety during the hospitalization time. Of the 87 participants, 50 caregivers reported symptoms of anxiety during hospitalization. Caregiver burden, frailty, and degree of airflow limitation were the strongest independent factors associated to caregiver’s anxiety at the time of hospitalization. |
