Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Caregivers are also faced with multiple stress factors. Autogenic relaxation therapy will help caregivers relax and take time for themselves by getting away from the stressful life they have lived. Although there are various studies on this subject (Chegeni et al. 2018, Seo and Kim 2019, Ramiraz-Garcia et al. 2020, Wang et al. 2021, Bagheri et all 2021, Ozhanlı and Akyuz 2022), there is no study on caregivers as far as we could reach. As a result of this study, nurses will help caregivers, whom they work one-on-one in most areas, to relax, thus helping to increase the quality of patient care in home environments and contributing to the increase in the quality of life of the caregiver. Thus, caregivers will be able to manage care more actively and effectively both at home and in clinics.

Based on this purpose, the aim of the study is to reduce the anxiety level of caregivers, increase the quality of life and reduce the burden of care after autogenic relaxation therapy to be applied to caregivers.
