WCN25-3098 EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF AN EDUCATIONAL VIDEO ON THE KNOWLEDGE OF SOUTH AFRICAN PATIENTS UNDERGOING HAEMODIALYSIS REGARDING THE USE OF THEIR HEALTH DATA
Additionally, receiving government financial benefits was strongly negatively correlated with burden (ZBI: r -0.81, p < 0.001), depression (PHQ-9: r -0.85, p < 0.001), and anxiety (GAD-7: r -0.84, p < 0.001), highlighting the protective role of financial support in mitigating psychological stress.Other factors, such as age, sex, education, and caregiving duration, showed weak correlations with psychological outcomes and were not statistically significant, suggesting minimal impact on caregiver stress levels.Overall, logistical challenges in managing PD and financial difficulties appear to be key contributors to caregiver stress, while financial support serves as a significant mitigating factor.Conclusions: This study highlights that mental health issues and caregiver burdens are significant concerns among CAPD patients.The strong correlations between caregiver burden and mental healthindices underscore the need for comprehensive mental health support and caregiver assistance programs.Proactive mental health screening and targeted interventions should be integral components of CAPD management to improve overall patient and caregiver well-being and to reduce the impact of these challenges on treatment outcomes I have no potential conflict of interest to disclose.I did not use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process.
