Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) significantly reduce caregiver burden, especially for those caring for individuals with cognitive impairment. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is highly effective in home-based settings, offering targeted support.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Psychology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Caregiver burden is a significant challenge for individuals supporting older adults with disabilities.
  • Effective psychosocial interventions are crucial for mitigating this burden.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and compare the effectiveness of various psychosocial interventions for reducing family caregiver burden.
  • To identify the most effective interventions for overall burden reduction, specifically for caregivers of individuals with cognitive impairment, and in home-based settings.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic search of seven major databases was conducted until October 2024.
  • Continuous outcomes were analyzed using standardized mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
  • Intervention effectiveness was ranked using surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) values.

Main Results:

  • Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) demonstrated the highest overall effectiveness in reducing caregiver burden (SMD = -6.67).
  • MBIs were particularly effective for caregivers of individuals with cognitive impairment (SMD = -17.06).
  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) was highly effective in home-based settings (SMD = -5.57).

Conclusions:

  • Psychosocial interventions, particularly MBIs and CBT, are effective in reducing caregiver burden.
  • MBIs show superior effectiveness for caregivers of individuals with cognitive impairment.
  • CBT is a highly effective strategy for home-based interventions, emphasizing the need for context-specific approaches.
