Según el Ministerio de Salud, Brasil tiene la quinta población de ancianos más grande del mundo, con alrededor de 28 millones de personas de 60 años o más. Objetivo: analizar la evidencia a través de una revisión de la literatura sobre la calidad de vida de los cuidadores de ancianos, identificando las principales comorbilidades entre ellos y su grupo de edad. Metodología: Se trata de una revisión de la literatura en las bases de Lilacs, Google Académico, Scientific Electronic Library Online – SciELO, US National Library of Medicine Nacional Institutes of Health (PubMed), Index Psychology y Collects SUS, de 2010 a 2021. Se analizaron 18 artículos. Resultados y discusión: Se identificó que los principales factores que influyeron en la calidad de vida variaron entre la sobrecarga y el vínculo creado entre el cuidador y el anciano. Asimismo, las principales comorbilidades encontradas entre los cuidadores son: enfermedades cardiovasculares, psiquiátricas y musculoesqueléticas. Conclusión: Existe la necesidad de una mirada más atenta a la calidad de vida de los cuidadores de ancianos por el daño a su salud, ya sea física o emocional. Permitir que los profesionales de la salud realicen intervenciones con el fin de crear vínculos terapéuticos con las familias de las personas mayores, identificando sus necesidades y, así, reduciendo el estrés y la carga.Introdução: O envelhecimento populacional vem ganhando bastante destaque nos últimos anos devido ao aumento da expectativa de vida e modernização das tecnologias.
