Literature Review

The cancer caregiving burden trajectory over time: varying experiences of perceived versus objectively measured burden The Oncologist, by Laura A Siminoff, Maureen Wilson-Genderson, Marcin Chwistek, Maria Thomson; 4/23/24 Conclusions: Cancer caregiving is dynamic; [caregivers] CGs must adjust to the progression of the patient's disease. We found an association between subjective and objective burden both within and between CGs. Black CGs were more likely to report lower subjective burden compared to their White counterparts. More detailed investigation of the sociocultural components that affect caregiver experience of burden is needed to better understand how and where to best intervene with targeted supportive care services.
