Pain and Heart Rate Variability in Caregivers of People with Dementia and Non‐Caregivers
While this study was not powered to identify meaningful differences, it demonstrates the feasibility of using an objective digital assessment of caregiver burden (heart rate variability) in relation to caregiver pain. The findings could facilitate greater understanding of the role pain plays in caregiver burden.
