Analysis of Factors Influencing Telemedicine-Based Psychiatric Extended Care and Care of Psychiatric Patients

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to understand the current situation of the care burden of patients with mental illness in remission and the factors affecting it in order to provide a scientific basis for targeted interventions. This paper reviews the concept of telemedicine, the application of telemedicine in home hospice care, and the remaining problems and improvement strategies of telemedicine in home hospice care, with the aim of providing a reference for the application of telemedicine in home hospice care in China. The Zarit Burden Scale, Family Care Scale, and Social Functioning Scale were used to conduct one-to-one interviews with 201 schizophrenic patients in remission and their primary caregivers in Hubei Province. Among them, 66, 72, and 25 cases (32.8%, 35.9%, and 12.4%) had mild, moderate, and severe burdens, respectively. Caregivers’ family care and patients’ social functioning were generally poor. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that caregiver age, caregiver education, caregiver family care, patient medical costs, and patient social functioning were factors influencing the burden of care for patients with schizophrenia in remission ( P < 0.05 ). The government, mental health centers, and families should understand the level of caregiving burden of patients with schizophrenia in remission and the factors influencing it and provide targeted measures to reduce the caregiving burden.

Qualitative study of the perceived experiences and needs coping of primary caregivers of patients with breast cancer during operation in central China

“…Studies have shown that caregivers’ negative emotions will lead to the decline of their potential coping ability and medical decision-making, which will adversely affect patients’ treatment process and disease prognosis to a considerable extent 10 11. Primary caregivers, as the most significant and frequent providers of care, are often overlooked 12 13. When a caregiver’s capacity to care fails to meet the patient’s needs, the caregiver experiences stress, leading to multidimensional burdens, including physiological, psychological and social, which are particularly pronounced during periods of surgical waiting.…”
