Abstract

Caregivers' point of view about clinical research is often neglected, though their burden is, in pharmacological studies, very high.

We show the results from the answers to a questionnaire, administered to 15 caregivers of demented patients taking part in a randomised clinical trial carried out in the first Neurological Department of Bergamo's Ospedali Riuniti.

Sommario

Il punto di vista dei caregivers è spesso trascurato nelle ricerche cliniche, benché spesso l'onere di costoro sia, come negli studi farmacologici, molto elevato.

Mostriamo in questo articolo i risultati delle risposte ad un questionario somministrato a 15 caregivers di pazienti partecipanti ad una ricerca farmacologica effettuata nella I Divisione Neurologica degli Ospedali Riuniti di Bergamo.
