Caregiver burden among adult-child caregivers of persons With Alzheimer's disease: A systematic review

Abstract

Studies examining the difference of family care-giving with respect to the adult-child versus the spouse with Alzheimer's disease reveal that burden is multifaceted and that spouses and adult-children are impacted by burden differently. Interventions aimed at reducing the burden of adult-child caregivers could benefit a significant population of caregivers.
