Abstract
Chronic renal insufficiency demands specific, continuous and varied care, which affects the health of family caregi-vers. Therefore, we propose to determine the health problems of family caregivers who care for patients over 65 years with chronic renal failure, due to increased risk and prevalence from this age onwards. For this purpose, we made a systematic review of the scientific literature on different national and international databases in the last ten years. Nine-teen studies were selected. These refer to the influence of the severity of the burden and lower quality of life of these caregivers. Psychological disorders are the health problems that are most mentioned. This knowledge may serve for developing strategies for a socio-medical approach, which might lead to improved quality of life, not only of caregivers but also of patients.
