Abstract


Contexte : Certaines caractéristiques, notamment l’âge, le niveau de scolarité, la situation économique et le lieu de résidence pendant la prestation des soins, influencent considérablement la qualité de vie (QDV) des proches aidants de patients atteints de cancer dans les pays à revenu élevé. Peu d’études ont été réalisées à cet égard dans les pays à revenu faible ou moyen.

Objectif : Étudier les facteurs associés à la QDV chez les proches aidants de patients kényans atteints de cancer.

Méthodologie : L’étude, de type corrélationnel, a été menée dans le plus grand hôpital d’enseignement et de recours du Kenya auprès de 164 proches aidants de patients cancéreux. L’échelle de qualité de vie – version familiale (Quality of Life – Family Version) a servi d’instrument de mesure. La collecte de données s’est faite à l’aide de questionnaires administrés en entrevue. Le test t de Student et le test du chi carré de Pearson ont permis de déterminer l’association entre les caractéristiques personnelles et sociales, les caractéristiques de la maladie, et la qualité de vie des proches aidants.

Résultats : Le score moyen de QDV des proches aidants était de 55,8 % (ÉT±10,12 %), ce qui est plus faible que dans les autres pays.

Conclusion : Il existe une association significative entre la qualité de vie (QDV) des proches aidants et le niveau de scolarité, la relation avec le patient, la capacité des proches aidants à accomplir leurs activités habituelles et leur connaissance des stades du cancer.

Mots-clés : proche aidant, qualité de vie, cancer, Kenya
