Résumé
Long-term effects of being the primary caregiver of an older patient with cancer are not known. This study aimed to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in primary caregivers of patients aged 70 and older with cancer, 5 years after initial treatment. Secondly, to compare the HRQoL between former primary caregivers whose caregiving relationship had ceased (primary caregiver no longer directly assisting the patient because of patient death or removal to another city or admission to an institution) and current caregivers, and to determine the perceived burden of the primary caregivers.
