SUMMARY:

The hospitalization, in the context of intensive care, is a stressful factor for both the patient and their family members. The experience of a family member's hospitalization in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) can trigger psychological symptoms that are harmful to the family's mental health. This work evaluated anxiety, depression and burden in family members of patients admitted to the ICU. The study was carried out in the Intensive Care Unit of a university hospital in Rio Grande do Norte. The
sample consisted of 85 family members of patients admitted to the ICU, who were selected considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria determined in the research. The research used aquantitative methodological approach and data were collected from a sociodemographic questionnaire, of the collection of clinical information from the patient and the anxiety and depression assessment scale: The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the assessment scale of caregiver burden: Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). The survey obtained data on the prevalence of depression, anxiety and burden 27.06%, 42.36% and 32.94%, respectively. There was no significant influence of basic sociodemographic data, such as gender, age, marital status, on the prevalence of anxiety, depression and burden on family members. The correlations found are associated with family dynamics, presence of a previous diagnosis of mental illness and work occupation. The research results will serve as a basis for future interventions that prioritize the quality of care and humanization.
