The Caregiver Pathway significantly reduced PTSD symptoms among family caregivers after 6 months.
At 12 months, caregivers of patients who survived showed even lower PTSD and anxiety scores compared to controls.
This randomized controlled trial included 196 family caregivers, assessing outcomes like depression and quality of life.
The findings suggest the caregiver pathway could improve mental health for families dealing with critical illness.
