Clinical Trial Summary

The coverage of the caregivers of patients reached of neurodegenerative disease becomes essential. The psychic, physical but also social impacts for the caregivers are widely documented in the literature just like the stress associated with this role, we speak then about "burden of the caregivers". It seems that the caregivers set up little effective strategies of adaptation pulling fatal consequences on their well-being. He was shown in the literature, that a level of high stress is going to engender a decrease of mental flexibility and so entrainer a rigidity of adaptation. To decrease the burden of the caregivers, numerous interventions were proposed. The analysis of the literature highlights that these interventions are rarely developed from theoretical models pulling(entailing) a stream of techniques proposed to the caregivers but without precise objective. The most effective interventions concerning the coverage(care) of the burden of the caregivers are the ones which are targeted and structured, those who put the helper in active position and who have an effect on the subjective burden. The cognitive-behavioral therapy (TCC) would seem particularly effective. So, to modify the perception (collection) of the caregivers in front of cognitive, behavioral, functional modifications of their close friend(relation), to bring them to estimate positively their role and to favor the employment(use) of adaptive strategies turns out to be a privileged target of intervention to be used(employed) to improve the well-being of the caregivers and so decrease their burden. Considering this, an intervention based on the techniques of resolution of problems (TRP) could show itself very relevant as specific coverage (care). The works concerning the contribution of the TRP and the adaptation generally concerning situations of health showed that this type(chap) of intervention facilitated an adapted situational coping, but also increased generally the social, academic and professional performances. Various searches(researches) also showed that the resolution of problem is associated with indicators of adaptation at patients' nursing reached(affected) by Alzheimer's disease. So we propose to the family caregivers a coverage(care) based on the therapy of resolution of problems taking support on the model of Lazarus's stress and Folkman and according to the model stemming from works of D' Zurilla and Nezu. We make the hypothesis that this intervention is going to allow a decrease of the burden by allowing the caregivers to find a capacity to modulate their strategies to fit at best the evolutions of the clinical situation. The main objective of our study is to compare the efficiency of a coverage(care) based on the Therapy of Resolution of Problems to a group of word and to that proposed at the moment within the pole of gerontology in the decrease of the burden of the caregivers of patients reached(affected) by neurodegenerative disease in 12 months. Our secondary objectives will concern the evolution of the burden in 6 months and the evolution of the strategies of coping, the anxious, depressive symptomatology, the quality of life, the mental flexibility in 6 and 12 months. According to the data of the current literature, we expect a decrease of the psychological distress, an increase of the good(property) to be psychological. More specifically, by proposing an intervention targeted in particular at the management of the stress, the helper is going to acquire fitnesses which will have a long-lasting(sustainable) therapeutic effect. By associating techniques of psychoeducation with techniques of management of the stress we hope we can propose a type(chap) of intervention suited to the natural caregivers to favor the preservation at home.
