Description

Introduction: Stroke is a common disease that disrupts daily activities and
can even lead to death. According to the World Health Organization (2016),
stroke is the leading cause of disability worldwide and the second leading
cause of death. Stroke affects various aspects of life, including mobility,
emotions, attitudes, and communication. Stroke patients often experience
activity limitations, making them dependent on family caregivers for
assistance with daily needs. This dependency can place a significant
burden on family caregivers, leading to stress. This research aims to
analyze the key factors contributing to stress among family caregivers of
stroke patients.
Methods: This study employed a literature review approach, analyzing 16
articles published between 2017 and 2024 in either Indonesian or English.
Only full-text articles were included. The literature review followed the
PRISMA checklist to ensure the appropriate selection of studies aligned
with the research objectives.
Results: Several factors contribute to stress among family caregivers of
stroke patients, including (1) age, (2) duration of caregivers, (3) gender,
(4) burden, and (5) (1) age, (2) duration of caregiving, (3) gender, (4)
burden, and (5) social support received from other family members.
Conclusion: This highlights the need for tailored stress management
strategies, stronger social support networks, and further research to
understand varying stressors. Policymakers and healthcare providers
should prioritize creating resources, raising awareness, and offering
personalized support to alleviate caregiver burden and improve overall
well-being.
