Abstract

The purpose of this study is to clarify the change in caregivers' living activities (taking baths, washing clothes, eating and sleeping) due to children's hospitalization, the resulting burden, and the factors which influence this. The questionnaire was distributed in five hospitals, and the data, which was answered by mothers of hospitalized children, was analyzed. The changes in the living activities of mothers who stay with their children in hospital every night are bigger than mothers who do not. Also, the burden they feel is significantly higher. A logistic regression analysis specified "being able to use bathroom/ shower room inside the unit", "housework support", and "length of stay" as influencing factors.
