The Relationship Between Mood and Insomnia Severity and Caregiver Burden in Caregivers of Stroke

The Relationship Between Mood and Insomnia Severity and Caregiver Burden in Caregivers of Stroke Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will include stroke patients aged 18-80 years and their caregivers. Demographic data such as age, height, weight, and comorbidities will be recorded, along with stroke-specific characteristics including duration of stroke, affected side, lesion location, and etiology. Patients' functional status will be assessed using the Modified Rankin Scale, Brunnstrom Stages, and the Modified Barthel Index, while ambulation status will be documented with the Holden Scale. Caregivers will complete the Insomnia Severity Index to assess the severity of sleep disturbances and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale to evaluate anxiety and depressive symptoms. Caregiver burden will be measured using the Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale. The study aims to investigate the relationship between caregivers' mood, insomnia severity, and caregiver burden.
