The effect of social support perceived by parents of child burn victims on their care burden and anxiety
Purpose
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of perceived social support on the caregiving burden and anxiety of parents of children with burn injuries.
Material and Methods
This is a correlational descriptive study. The study was conducted with parents of 52 children who were admitted and treated in a paediatric burn clinic at a university hospital between January and December, 2019. The Zarit Care Burden Scale, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and the State Anxiety Scale were used in the study. Path analysis was performed with observed variables, and structural equation model (SEM) was constructed using Amos programme.
Results
The mean age of the parents was 30.94 ± 7.33 years. In the study, the cause of burns in 55.8 % of the children was contact with flame (oil, thinner, and gas) and it was found that 82.7 % of the children had third degree burns and 65.4 % had second degree burns. A positive significant correlation was found between anxiety and caregiving burden, but a negative correlation was found between anxiety and parental social support.
Conclusions
The study found that the level of anxiety and caregiving burden of parents of children with burns increased as their social support decreased. In line with the results of our study, it is seen that health professionals (doctors, nurses, psychologists, social workers) working in paediatrics can involve parents in care interventions by assessing their social support, caregiving burden, and anxiety.
Practice Implications
It has been observed that the care burden and anxiety levels of burned children increase as the social support they receive from their parents decreases. Healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, psychologists, social workers) working in this clinic should provide social, emotional, and psychological support to parents and share the burden of care. It has been shown that as social support increases, caregiving and anxiety levels can improve significantly.
期刊介绍:
Burns aims to foster the exchange of information among all engaged in preventing and treating the effects of burns. The journal focuses on clinical, scientific and social aspects of these injuries and covers the prevention of the injury, the epidemiology of such injuries and all aspects of treatment including development of new techniques and technologies and verification of existing ones. Regular features include clinical and scientific papers, state of the art reviews and descriptions of burn-care in practice.
Topics covered by Burns include: the effects of smoke on man and animals, their tissues and cells; the responses to and treatment of patients and animals with chemical injuries to the skin; the biological and clinical effects of cold injuries; surgical techniques which are, or may be relevant to the treatment of burned patients during the acute or reconstructive phase following injury; well controlled laboratory studies of the effectiveness of anti-microbial agents on infection and new materials on scarring and healing; inflammatory responses to injury, effectiveness of related agents and other compounds used to modify the physiological and cellular responses to the injury; experimental studies of burns and the outcome of burn wound healing; regenerative medicine concerning the skin.
