The effectiveness of psychoeducational interventions on caregiver-oriented outcomes in caregivers of adult cancer patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract
Objective Cancer caregiving can result in increased psychosocial distress and poor health-related quality of life (QOL). Psychoeducation has been shown to be effective in enhancing caregiving-oriented outcomes. A systematic assessment of the overall effect of psychoeducational intervention (PEI) and identification of individual intervention characteristics that may contribute to the effectiveness of PEI is needed. Methods For this meta-analysis, relevant articles were identified through electronic databases using key search terms and their medical subject heading such as "family caregiver," "cancer," and "psychoeducational intervention." Results Twenty-eight controlled trials with 3876 participants were included. PEIs had beneficial effect on depression (Standardized Mean Difference [SMD] -0.26; 95% CI = -0.50 to -0.01, p Conclusions PEI may benefit caregivers of cancer patients through the significant effects on caregiver burden, QOL, anxiety, and depression. The findings from the moderation analysis may be important for the design of future interventions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
