Abstract:
Objective:To observe the application effect of caregiver coaching program in primary caregivers of patients with colorectal neoplasms.Methods:A total of 114 primary caregivers of patients with colorectal neoplasms who were hospitalized and treated in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to January 2019 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. The routine intervention group was given routine discharge guidance before discharge. The coaching program group implemented the caregiver coaching program on the basis of routine intervention, that was, after training, the caregivers with nursing experience acted as caregiver coaches to mentor the caregivers and provided professional care knowledge and skills as well as psychological support. Interventions in two groups both lasted for 12 weeks. The Chinese version of Family Caregiver Task Inventory (FCTI) and Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) were used to assess and compare the care capacity and care burden of caregivers between two groups at discharge and after 12 weeks of intervention.Results:After 12 weeks of intervention, the five-dimensional scores of adapting to the caregiver's role ability, adapting and providing assistance for patients ability, adjusting self and patient's emotional ability, coordinating other care resources and adjusting the conflicts between self-life and care activities ability in the coaching program group were all lower than those at discharge and the routine intervention group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . After 12 weeks of intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in scores of the five dimensions of time dependence, developmental limitation, body, sociability and emotionality in the routine intervention group compared with those at discharge ( P>0.05) . However, scores of these five dimensions of the coaching program group were lower than those at discharge and they were all lower than those of the routine intervention group. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The caregiver coaching program can improve the care ability of primary caregivers of patients with colorectal neoplasms and reduce their care burden.
