Abstract

Introduction: Caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) suffer from psychological and financial burdens. However, the results of the relationship between burden and functional decline have remained inconsistent. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the impact of the level of function of dementia patients on the caregiver burden.
