While caregiver burden has been studied extensively in caregivers of patients with dementia, stroke, and cancer, little is known about the burden of caregiving in the context of service-related injuries like traumatic brain injury(TBI) and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Studies have shown that depression, anxiety, and caregiver strain are associated with lifestyle risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). Purpose: The purpose of this descriptive study was to examine the effects of caregiving on cardiovascular health in mothers and wives caring for veterans with invisible wounds of war.Methods: The study utilized a sequential, exploratory, mixed method design with convergent results. Participants completed an online survey. Analysis included descriptive and correlational statistics. The qualitative interviews used a semi-structured interview guide that explored the daily experience of the caregiver and facilitators and inhibitors to heart health self-care. The interviews were transcribed and coded and content analysis was conducted.Results: Caregivers reported spending the greatest amount of time providing emotional support for the veteran and managing behavioral problems. Neurobehavioral symptoms most frequently reported by caregiver as being severe included forgetfulness and anxiousness.
