PSYCHOEDUCATION FAMILY PATIENTS MENTAL DISORDERS (A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW)

WHO mentions the main problems of mental disorders in the world are schizophrenia, unipolar depression, alcohol use, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (Stuart & Laraia, 2005). Schizophrenia is a problem with the highest prevalence with some symptoms of psychotic disorder. Prevalence is around seven in a thousand adults. And the eight highest causes of mental disorders in adolescents and adults (WHO, 2013 in M-S. Ran, 2015). Schizophrenia is a group of psychotic reactions that affect the function of individuals, among others, the function of thinking and communicating, receiving and interpreting reality, feel and show emotions and behave (Stuart & Laraia, 2013). We reviewed 25 lieratures to identify family psychoeducation interventions in family members of mental disorders. The literature used is published until 2017, with 7 qualitative research literature and 18 quantitative research literature. The smallest sample size was 3 focus groups on qualitative studies, and the largest number of samples was 2060 in quantitative studies. The results showed that 5 studies of family psychoeducation can improve the quality of life of patients and families, reduce patient limitations, improve cognitive abilities and psychomotor families and improve patient life expectancy. 2 studies have found out that family psychoeducation can reduce the burden of families and nurses in treating psychiatric patients. 3 studies have resulted in improved family coping, and 10 studies resulted in improved quality of life for patients and families, prevention of recurrence, accelerated healing, and there was an increase in family positive support for psychiatric patients. Psychoeducation to families of mental disorders proved to increase independence and family ability in daily care, reducing dependence on medication and hospital care. The study of family psychoeducation of mental disorders is highly heterogeneous, both statistically, population, intervention methods, and outcomes. Therefore, meta-analysis can not be performed in most of the literature included. Further research is expected to develop more to obtain results that can increase knowledge and can be applied in other settings. The results of these interventions will vary depending on the factors influencing, for example, sex, education level, age, socioeconomic status, and so on
