“…As for residence, the vast majority lived in their own home and a smaller percentage personas in nursing homes or institutions, coinciding with the data from the IMSERSO Observatory of the Elderly ( 19 ) . Regarding family member carers, only half of patients identified one, although in this study these important individuals are not classified by sex nor by relationship to the dependent; in the bibliography consulted, in the majority of cases they were women, either children or spouses ( 20 ) . As for the clinical-epidemiological characteristics, the presence of chronic diseases is noticeable, with a mean of around 4; from a total of 9 medical diagnoses collected, cardiovascular and skeletomuscular and metabolic processes are the most prevalent; this is in line with other studies, including clinical trials conducted with hypertensive patients in Canada ( 21 ) which show that 89% to 100% have multiple chronic diseases, with a mean varying between 5 and 12.…”

“…Aunque se ha señalado que los hombres suelen tener menores redes de apoyo (70) , con el potencial de mejorar el bienestar y/o amortiguar el impacto negativo en situaciones adversas (71) , la evidencia científica no es concluyente al respecto. De hecho, las mujeres, en mayor medida que los hombres, suelen reportar estresores crónicos (72,73) . En los hombres, no compatibilizar en la misma medida que las mujeres la esfera productiva y reproductiva, particularmente en lo que respecta a asumir responsabilidades de cuidado informal, disminuye sus riesgos de padecer ciertos problemas de salud, aumentando otros (74,75) .…”

“…Some of these thoughts, called dysfunctional or irrational thoughts, are related to the gender mandate received during our socialization and within our cultural framework, serving a prescriptive function referred to as "what it should be" and "what should be done" (Barberá, 2004). Moreover, the time being a carer seems to influence the level of stress and distress suffered in complex ways, as studies by Hirst (2005), Masanet, La Parra (2011), andRoig et al (1998) indicate. To provide carers with psychological and social resources for coping with the stress of their work and reduce the risk of disease, some interventions have been designed based on psychoeducational intervention models from cognitive behavioral psychology (Losada, Robison Shurgot et al, 2006).…”

“…Sin embargo, también se relacionan los años de cuidado y una mayor sobrecarga y acumulación de estrés en las cuidadoras (Roig et al, 1998). En otros estudios la relación entre el número de horas de cuidado y la salud mental de las cuidadoras no es tan directa sino que se ve mediada por otras variables como el sexo del cuidador y del tipo de paciente al que esté cuidando (Masanet y La Parra, 2011). Hirst (2005) propone que el riesgo de sufrir los efectos del estrés aumenta en función de la intensidad del cuidado, es decir, del número de horas que se dedican a la semana a los cuidados, aunque los picos de mayor aumento de este riesgo se dan al inicio del mismo y cuando éste termina.…”
