    ( 2017-09-01) Padmaja, Gadiraju ; Vanlalhruaii, C. ; Rana, Suvashisa ; Tiamongla, ; Kopparty, Swarajya
    Cancer disrupts the quality of life of both the patients and their family caregivers. This study attempted to explore the relationship between the quality of life of cancer patients and their family caregivers and to examine whether the quality of life, age, and gender of the patients contributed to the quality of life of their family caregivers. This correlational study involved 206 pairs of participants consisting of cancer patients and their corresponding family caregivers. The European Organization for the Treatment and Research of Quality of Life Questionnaire C-30 (version 3) was administered on the patients and the Caregiver Quality of Life-Cancer was administered on their family caregivers. The result revealed that social functioning, appetite loss, physical functioning, and gender of the patients contributed significantly to the quality of life of their family caregivers. Implications, shortcomings, and future directions were discussed.
