Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the impacts of psychoeducational interventions in adjusting the physical and psychological statuses of caregivers of CRC patients.
Methods: Nine electronic databases, including Medline, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL Complete, CNKI, Wan Fang Database, VIP Database, and CBM, were searched to identify eligible randomized controlled trials from January 2000 to July 2023. From 1498 articles, 9 articles that met the inclusion criteria were identified and systematically analyzed. Effect sizes and moderator variables were tested using both fixed-effect models and random-effect models.
Results: Our results clearly showed that although psychoeducational interventions could improve all aspects of the physical health of caregivers of CRC patients, resulting in improved quality of life, reduced caregiver burden, and enhanced caregiver ability, they only partly affect the psychological conditions of caregivers. For example, while it led to improved positive coping, alleviated negative coping, and decreased disruption in the caring schedule, there were quite a few key aspects of the psychological status that did not show responses, including perception of family support, financial burden, self-esteem, and distress.
Conclusion: Psychoeducational interventions can significantly improve the status of caregivers of CRC both physically and psychologically and encourage active lifestyles. However, there are still outstanding problems to be solved in the psychological aspects of caregivers, such as how to improve their social support, and how to relieve their financial pressure. Even so, we firmly believe developing a standardized psychoeducational intervention mode is of great significance in improving the general well-being of caregivers of CRC patients.
