Resumo:
Objetivo: selecionar, avaliar e interpretar criticamente as publicações que tiveram como foco principal o estresse vivenciado pelos pais/cuidadores de crianças com paralisia cerebral. Método: revisão integrativa da literatura. A busca foi conduzida na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), no United States National Library of Medicine (PubMED) e busca manual de referências nos estudos selecionados. Optou-se por selecionar estudos publicados no período de 1998 a 2011. Resultados: integraram a amostra 13 artigos. Pais de crianças com paralisia cerebral apresentam níveis de estresse maiores do que os pais de crianças sem deficiência. Os problemas de comportamento, os distúrbios psicológicos e emocionais das crianças foram os fatores mais comumente associados aos maiores níveis de estresse. A satisfação com apoio social, satisfação com o papel de pai/mãe, o bom funcionamento familiar, o vínculo afetivo pai/mãe-filho, o apoio do cônjuge e o sentimento de participar ativamente da vida social contribuem para reduzir os níveis de estresse. Conclusão: a saúde dos pais de crianças com paralisia cerebral está comprometida pelos maiores níveis de estresse. Desta forma, profissionais da saúde devem oferecer uma atenção especial a eles.

Abstract:
Objective: to select, evaluate and interpret critically the bibliographic production focused on the stress experienced by parents / caregivers of children with cerebral palsy. Method: an integrative literature review. Sources for this search were the Virtual Health Library (VHL), the United States National Library of Medicine (PubMed) and manual search of references from the selected studies. We opted to select studies published between 1998 and 2011. Results: the sample included 13 articles. Parents of children with cerebral palsy have higher stress levels than parents of children without disabilities. Behavioral problems, psychological disorders and emotional needs of children were factors commonly associated with high levels of stress. Satisfaction with social support, self-satisfaction with the parental role, a good family functioning, an emotional bond between father/mother and child, the spousal support and the sense of being an active participation in social life help reduce stress levels. Conclusion: parents of children with cerebral palsy are likely to be their health affected by higher levels of stress. Thus, health professionals should give them special attention.
