Caregiver’s burden is a multidimensional phenomenon affecting care-givers physically, emotionally and socially. It is critical to examine the burden of caregivers, because of the complex responsibility they have with their partners. There are relatively few studies that have examined factors linked with psychological burden amongst caregivers of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. Hence, it is pertinent to develop a good understanding of these factors and develop appropriate management strategies, modified to assist PAH caregivers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
