MARTINEZ RODRIGUEZ, Lesnay; GRAU VALDES, Yadira  y  RODRIGUEZ UMPIERRE, Rosamary. Stress coping strategies in caregivers of hemodialysis patients. Enferm Nefrol [online]. 2017, vol.20, n.2, pp.139-148. ISSN 2255-3517.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s2254-288420170000200007.

Kidney disease demand the assistance of a carer. The caregiver of the patient on hemodialysis is exposed to situations of stress generated by the activity of care.

Determine the coping strategies to stress in caregivers of patients in hemodialysis and determine the correlation between the strategies and the variable age of caregivers.

Quantitative study with a descriptive- correlational study. We analyzed 48 caregivers of patients attending the hemodialysis service during 2016.

We performed a descriptive analysis of the variables: coping strategies, sex, age, educational level, and years as a caregiver and labor bond. We applied the structured interview and the questionnaire of coping with stress.

There is a predominance of women in the performance of the role as a caregiver for a 81% of the sample with an average of 48 years of age. The focus on the solution of the problem and the positive reevaluation are recognized as the coping strategies most commonly used by caregivers. We found a weak correlation between age and coping strategies to stress to a value of p<0.05 and with a confidence level of 95%.

There is a predominance of the female gender in the 81% of caregivers for an average age of 48 years and a higher average level of schooling.

There is a predominance of the female gender in the 81% of caregivers for an average age of 48 years and a higher average level of schooling. The stress-coping strategies employed focus on the solution of the problem. There is no relationship between the ages of carers and the coping strategies employed.
