“…While our results were consistent with findings from a previous research study using mRMBC in patients with dementia showing that memory problems were most frequently reported by caregivers (mean = 5.08, SD 1.55), we found that depression was the problem that most bothered the caregivers in our study [37].

“…The type of problems displayed by the care recipient are also an important factor as it is suggested that carers of dementia patients experience greater stress than carers of individuals with physical disabilities, and it is specifically behaviour problems rather than cognitive impairment that cause most stress. 13 …”

HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeT he Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993.
