简要总结
This study aims to study the relationship between caregiver burden and stroke patient quality of life. One of the most important aspects of stroke treatment and management is the relationship between carer stress and the quality of life of stroke patients. The quality of life and carer burden of stroke survivors are measured using multiple scales. Zarit Caregiver Burden Assessment Scale: This scale is frequently used to gauge the degree of load that carers bear, including financial, physical, and emotional strain. Conversely, quality of life assessments tailored specifically for stroke victims, like the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL), offer valuable information about the distinct life domains impacted by stroke, such as the physical, psychosocial, and cognitive domains. Furthermore, a popular tool for evaluating many aspects of quality of life, such as social functioning, emotional stability, and physical functioning, is the SF-36 Quality of Life Scale. With this study the relationship between carer stress and stroke patient’s quality of life will be examined and correlation will observed.
