Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: This study aimed to identify the care needs of family caregivers of elderly patients with early-stage dementia and examine support measures.
UNASSIGNED: We conducted a self-administered questionnaire survey with 115 primary caregivers of outpatients who visited A City Community General Support Center or B University Hospital Department of Neurology for memory loss consultation. The questionnaire content included demographic characteristics, the care needs scale for caregivers of the elderly with early-stage dementia (Care Needs Scale), and the Japanese short version of the Zarit Burden Interview. The Medical Ethics Committee of Fukuoka University approved this study (approval number: M047). Of the 115 participants, 104 were included in the analysis after excluding 11 respondents with missing data. We divided the participants into a young group (under 65 years of age) and an old group (65 years of age or older) and compared the variables and each scale score using the Mann-Whitney U test. We also compared the correlations between the total score and subscale scores of the Care Needs Scale and each variable, in addition, we performed multiple regression analyses using the total score of the Care Needs Scale as the dependent variable.
UNASSIGNED: The young caregivers wanted to know how to take care, prevent deterioration, and deal with symptoms of early-stage dementia. They were trying to balance caregiving with work and housekeeping and reduce the stress and burden of long-term care. Older caregivers were confused about caregiving and wanted someone to talk about their situations.
UNASSIGNED: Both groups shared that the family\'s lack of understanding about caregiving and personal and role strains were associated with the care needs of caregivers of the elderly with early-stage dementia.

摘要：
■本研究旨在确定早期痴呆症老年患者家庭护理人员的护理需求，并检查支持措施。
■我们对115名门诊患者的主要照顾者进行了问卷调查，这些患者到A市社区综合支持中心或B大学医院神经内科进行了记忆丧失咨询。问卷内容包括人口学特征、早期痴呆症老年人护理人员的护理需求量表(护理需求量表)，以及ZaritBurden采访的日语短版。福冈大学医学伦理委员会批准了本研究（批准号：M047）。在115名参与者中，在排除了11名缺失数据的受访者后，104人被纳入分析。我们将参与者分为年轻组（65岁以下）和老年组（65岁或以上），并使用Mann-WhitneyU检验比较变量和每个量表得分。我们还比较了护理需求量表的总分和子量表得分与每个变量之间的相关性，此外,我们使用护理需求量表的总评分作为因变量进行多元回归分析.
■年轻的照顾者想知道如何照顾，防止恶化，处理早期痴呆的症状.他们试图平衡护理与工作和家务，减轻长期护理的压力和负担。年长的照顾者对照顾感到困惑，并希望有人谈论他们的情况。
两组都认为，家庭对照顾、个人和角色关系的缺乏理解与早期痴呆老人照顾者的照顾需求有关。
