“…[15,17,20,21] Our results also showed that the acquired knowledge was useful in daily life for both family members and the ill person. Duhamel and colleagues [20] also found that both the spouse and the ill person learned how to deal with the disease better.…”

“…Earlier studies investigating the importance of education about disease-specific knowledge for family members has directed the education mostly to both the ill person and their family member, [14,15,20] but an educational programme for family members of stroke patients was directed only to the family members. [17,27] They did however not evaluate whether the participants would have preferred to have the education together with the person who had the stroke or not. The basic idea with the present programme was that it is important for family members to have the opportunity to express themselves and their experiences without the presence of the ill person, so that they could talk about their worries and discuss different issues openly and freely.…”

“…[3] Group-based education, including group sessions, provides opportunities to share experiences and to receive practical and emotional support from each other. [12,13] Educational interventions aimed at improving knowledge and support systems for spouses of patients with different diagnoses have previously shown positive results, [14][15][16][17][18] such as increased disease-related knowledge, [17] reduced distress [18] and improved family function. [14] In a care program for both patients with CHF and their partners, the patients improved their level of perceived control during a period of three months, but their partners' level of perceived control remained unchanged.…”

This is the published version of a paper published in Clinical Nursing Studies. Citation for the original published paper (version of record):Löfvenmark, C., Billing, E., Edner, M., Mattiasson, A. (2015) Family members' experience of a group-based multi-professional educational programme about chronic heart failure. ABSTRACT Objective: The aim was to evaluate how family members of persons with chronic heart failure (CHF) experienced a group-based multi-professional educational programme. Methods: Family members who participated in an educational programme filled in an evaluation form directly after completing the programme (n = 53). One year after the completed programme family members (n = 11) who participated in 5-6 of six sessions were interviewed about their experience. The interviews were analysed by qualitative content analysis. Results: The evaluation form showed that most family members reported satisfaction with session structure and content, but a majority would have preferred to share the education together with the ill person. Interview findings are presented in three categories and eight subcategories identified through the analysis. Results showed that family members' increased knowledge about heart failure and thereby attained a greater understanding of the ill person's situation with an increased tolerance. Furthermore the family members acquired a better self-confidence and became a resource for the ill person and they described that they were more actively involved in the ill person's self-care. Family members experienced it positive to meet others in the same situation. They also gained an insight into the importance of taking care of their own health. Conclusions: The educational programme produced valuable knowledge and understanding about heart failure among family members. With this newly acquired knowledge, family members had the possibility of working out appropriate support for the ill person. Being part of a group with others in the same situation was a positive experience. Clinical

Objective: It is to determine interventions performed to develop competence of family caregivers of patients with stroke in coping with caregiving and what are they of these interventions. Method: 20 randomized controlled studies, one of them meta-analysis, were evaluated in accordance with inclusion criteria. All studies were systematized and examined. Results: Types of interventions made to the caregivers were consultancy via phone, e-mail, web aided training, home visits, and group education. The intervention provided to caregivers was found to be effective in 15 of 20 studies included in the study. In other five studies, there was no statistical difference in terms of a measured parameter; whereas, it was found useful for caregivers in at least one of the other measured parameters. Conclusion: The fact that interventions for strengthening caregivers were highly effective points out the requirement of determining cost effective methods in future studies.Key words: Stroke, family caregivers, caregivers competence, care burden, cope with stress, systematic review ÖZET Amaç: İnmeli hastaların, aile bakım vericilerinin, bakım vermede baş etme yeterliliklerini geliştirmek amacıyla yapılan girişimler ve bu girişimlerin neler olduğunun belirlenmesidir. Yöntem: Dâhil edilme kriterlerine uygun olarak, biri meta analiz olmak üzere, 20 randomize kontrollü çalışma değerlendirilmiştir. Tüm çalışmalar sistematize edilerek incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Bakım vericilere yapılan girişim türlerinin; telefonla danışmanlık, e-posta, web destekli eğitim, ev ziyaretleri ve grup eğitimi olduğu belirlenmiştir. Araştırma kapsamına alınan 20 araştırmanın, 15'inde bakım vericilere yapılan girişimin etkin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Diğer beş araştırmada ise, ölçülen bir parametrede istatistik açısından farklılık yok iken, ölçülen diğer parametrelerin en az birinde girişimin bakım verenler için faydalı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Bakım vericileri güçlendirmeye yönelik girişimlerin büyük oranda etkin olması, gelecek çalışmalarda maliyet etkili yöntemlerin belirlenmesi gerektiğine işaret etmektedir.Anahtar kelimeler: İnme, aile bakım verici, bakım verme yeterliliği, bakım yükü, stresle başa çıkma, sistematik derleme
