Abstract:
Cerebral stroke has a high incidence, mortality and disability rate, which lead to many se-quelae especially hemiplegia. Patients who got hemiplegia always had limb dysfunction and cannot live on their own, so the burden of taking care of patients are on the shoulder of caregivers. This paper reviewed the needs of caregivers from the following four parts: the classification of caregivers' needs, the influencing factors of the de-mand, the evaluation methods of the demand and the interventions that the caregivers need. From this article we know the needs of caregivers would change with the change of the state of patients, but their needs generally in-clude the disease knowledge, exercise guidance, emotion management, and community resource utilization, etc.
