To examine the relationships among caregiver burden, psychological resilience, and quality of life in primary caregivers of advanced cancer patients receiving palliative care.
Conducted a cross-sectional study with 203 primary caregivers.
Used standardized assessments: Zarit Burden Inventory, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, SF-12 Health Survey.
Performed correlation analysis, ANOVA, multivariable regression, and mediation analysis.
Mean caregiver burden score was 45.63, with 29.56% experiencing severe burden.
Caregiver burden negatively correlated with resilience (r = -.47, P < .001) and QOL (r = -.53, P < .001).
Resilience positively correlated with QOL (r = .62, P < .001).
Mediation analysis showed resilience accounted for 42.3% of the burden-QOL relationship.
