Abstract:
:Caregiver burden was evaluated among family members of 90 schizophrenic patients from hospital psychiatric ward, day hospital or from community psychiatry unit. Psychopathology was evaluated with the use of PANSS while family burden with the use of Tessler's scale which allowed to differentiate between objective and subjective burden regarding assistance to the subject and patient's supervision. Schizophrenic symptoms were more severe in hospitalized patients than among patients from day hospital or patients treated in the community. Family burden, both subjective and objective was more severe among family members of hospitalized patients. There was no difference in the severity of family burden among family members of patients from day-hospital or from community psychiatry unit. The severity of positive and general schizophrenic symptoms (PANSS) correlated positively with the lack of patient's acceptance by a family member as well as with the global subjective family burden and with the necessity of taking control over patient. There was a positive correlation between the severity of schizophrenic negative symptoms and subjective family burden (dimension: assistance to the patient) and the sum of objective family burden.
