espanolObjetivo: Determinar la relacion entre el grado de sobrecarga y las caracteristicas sociodemograficas de cuidadores informales de personas adultas mayores con Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. Metodologia: Estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo, correlacional, de corte transversal a 83 cuidadores informales de personas adultas mayores con Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2, provenientes del sector noreste de Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. Para medir la sobrecarga se utilizo la Escala Zarit, se incluyeron items sobre caracteristicas sociodemograficas. Resultados: El perfil del cuidador con tendencia a sobrecarga fue: mujer (81.9%), ama de casa (47%), con un promedio de edad de 40 anos, casada (53%), hija del adulto mayor (72.3%), de baja escolaridad (66.1%) e ingresos economicos mensuales menores o igual a 6,799 pesos mexicanos (51.8%) que lleva de uno a tres anos como cuidadora (54.2%) dedicando mas de 17 horas/ diarias al mismo (51.8%). El 48.2% de los cuidadores presento sobrecarga intensa, el 44.6% ausencia de sobrecarga y 7.2% sobrecarga leve. Se encontro asociacion estadisticamente significativa (p=0.02) entre el grado de sobrecarga y las variables estado civil y ocupacion.Conclusiones: La asociacion significativa indica que el estado civil y la ocupacion se relaciona con el grado de sobrecarga percibido en los cuidadores, lo cual es importante proponer que las intervenciones sean dirigidas a estas caracteristicas para la disminucion de la sobrecarga, la cual es un riesgo para la salud de los cuidadores con dicho perfil, ya que se encuentra asociada a mayor morbimortalidad medica, psiquiatrica y social del cuidador. EnglishObjective: To determinate the association between work overload degree and sociodemographic characteristics of informal caregivers of older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Material and Methods: Quantitative, descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional study of 83 informal caregivers of older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus, coming from the northeast sector of Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. The Zarit Scale was used to measure the overload degree, and items regarding sociodemographic characteristics were included. Results: The profile of the caregiver with tendency to work overload was: woman (81.9%), housewife (47%), with an average age of 40 years, married (53%), daughter of the older adult (72.3%), low schooling (66.1%), with a monthly income lower than or equal to $6,799 Mexican pesos (51.8%), one to three years acting as caregiver (54.2%), and dedicating more than 17 hours per day to provide care to the patient (51.8%). The 48.2% of the caregivers showed intense work overload, 44.6% absence of work overload and 7.2% slight work overload. A statistically significant association was found (p=0.02) between the degree of work overload and the marital status and occupation variables. Conclusions: The statistically significant association indicates that marital status and occupation is related to the caregiver’s perceived work overload degree. It is relevant to propose interventions addressed to these characteristics in order to reduce the work overload, which is a risk for the caregiver’s health with the aforementioned profile, since it is related to greater odds of medical, psychiatric, and social morbidity and mortality.
