Necesidades de las cuidadoras familiares de personas con accidente cerebrovascular en el domicilio: Revisión estructurada 2000-2007

The studies reviewed show an increasing demand for support and care for stroke survivors' caregivers. Because of the highly diverse contexts of these studies, the lack of an explicit definition on the concept of “need”, and the wide heterogeneity in caregivers' situations, summarizing the results of these studies is difficult. New studies are required in our context that take these limitations into account and try to overcome them.
