Abstract:
Most
existing health-related quality of life research concerns the impact of disease
on patients.However, in several medical specialties including dermatology,
oncology, and physical and mental disability, studies have been carried out
investigating the impact of disease on the lives of families of patients.The
aim of this paper is to review the literature which relates to the impact of
disease on family members of patients.The OVIDSP Medline was selected as the
primary database, Searches were limited to sources published in English.158
papers were identified for review.The definition of “family” varied across the
literature, and a broad definition was accepted in this review.This review
shows that a wide variety of aspects of family members’ lives can be affected,
including emotional, financial, family relationships, education and work,
leisure time, and social activities.Many of these themes are linked to one
another, with themes including financial impact and social impact being linked
to emotional impact.Some positive aspects were also identified from the
literature, including family relationships growing stronger.Several instruments
exist to measure the impact of illness on the family, and most are disease or
specialty- specific.The impact of disease on families of patients is often
unrecognised and underestimated.Taking into account the quality of life of
families as well as patients can offer the clinician a unique insight into
issues such as family relationships and the effect of treatment decisions on the
patient\’s close social group of partner and family.[ABSTRACT FROM
