RESUMO
Este estudo objetivou investigar a sobrecarga emocional e a percepção da própria qualidade de vida em mães de crianças com Erros Inatos do Metabolismo (EIM). Participaram 21 mães de crianças com EIM, com comprometimento neurológico grave, de ambos os sexos, com idade até dez anos. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio dos instrumentos WHOQOL-Bref e Burden Interview. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente e comparados. Foi observado que os cuidados com a criança com EIM interferem negativamente na qualidade de vida das mães, sobretudo no domínio relações sociais, acarretando uma sobrecarga emocional, de tal forma que quanto maior a sobrecarga, mais baixa a percepção sobre a própria qualidade de vida.(AU)
