Enquadramento - A família/cuidador informal sente várias dificuldades no cuidar o familiar com
esquizofrenia, nas atividades da vida diária, as mudanças ocorridas na rotina, a diminuição do lazer,
os problemas de saúde, as preocupações, o medo de adoecer, a obrigatoriedade do cuidado, o custo
do tratamento, os aspetos financeiros e as expectativas em relação ao futuro, fatores que se
constituem como sobrecarga para os cuidadores. O conhecimento desta realidade é indispensável
para melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados prestados.
Objetivo - Objetivou-se, com este estudo, avaliar a sobrecarga dos familiares que coabitam com a
pessoa com esquizofrenia; analisar em que medida as variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e
contextuais interferem na sobrecarga dos familiares; analisar a relação entre estado depressivo e a
sobrecarga dos familiares que coabitam com a pessoa com esquizofrenia.
Material e Método - Para a obtenção dos objectivos de investigação delineados, optou-se pelo tipo
de investigação quantitativa e não experimental, com corte transversal, descritiva e correlacional. A
recolha de informação foi realizada através de questionários: questionário de caraterização
sociodemográfica; Inventário de Depressão de Beck (BDI – Beck Depression Inventory); Escala de
sobrecarga do cuidador de Zarit.
Resultados – A variável género interferiu significativamente no impacto da prestação de cuidados,
bem como a variável grau de parentesco com o doente esquizofrénico, nomeadamente foram os
familiares não diretos do doente com esquizofrenia revelam médias mais elevadas na perceção de
autoeficácia. A variável sociodemográfica idade do doente com esquizofrenia interferiu na sobrecarga
dos seus cuidadores, mais concretamente ao nível do impacto da prestação de cuidados e na
sobrecarga global. A variável género do doente com esquizofrenia interferiu estatisticamente na
sobrecarga do seu familiar cuidador, mais concretamente no impacto da prestação de cuidados.
Houve uma correlação estatisticamente significativa entre a sintomatologia depressiva e a sobrecarga
dos familiares que coabitam com a pessoa com esquizofrenia.
Conclusão – Cuidar de um familiar com esquizofrenia causa sobrecarga física e emocional ao
cuidador informal. Os enfermeiros devem ajudar na resolução de conflitos que surgem da convivência
com um familiar esquizofrénico; auxiliar os familiares a reduzir a sua ansiedade; dar-lhe condições
para lutar contra as forças destrutivas que podem aumentar a sua sobrecarga; fortalecer a família
contra perturbações críticas e fomentar a identidade familiar e os seus valores próprios, no sentido de
ajudar os familiares na prestação de cuidados.
