Abstract:
Objective? To investigate the status of filial piety values and care-giving burden of caregivers of patients with chronic heart failure(CHF) and to explore the influence of filial piety values on care-giving burden. Methods? By purposive sampling method, 190 CHF patients and their caregivers were selected from three hospitals in Nanjing, Kunshan and Suzhou from April 2017 to April 2018. Patients' General Information Questionnaire, caregivers' General Information Questionnaire, Chinese version of Filial Values Index(FVI), and Dutch Objective Burden Inventory(DOBI) for chronic heart failure patients' caregivers were used in the study. Results? The total scores of FVI and DOBI of caregivers of CHF patients were (94.88±11.29) and (7.01±11.25). Patient's course of disease, caregiver's gender, whether to live with patients, attitude to patients' disease and filial piety were the influencing factors of care burden (P< 0.05). Conclusions? It is suggested that more attention should be paid to the burden of caregivers of patients with chronic heart failure and interventions should be taken to improve their filial piety values so as to reduce their burden of care.
