Burnout in caregivers of schizophrenic patients continues to increase with unrecovered cases of schizophrenia. Therefore, this study aims to determine the factors associated with burnout in caregivers of patients with schizophrenia in the Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit. A cross-sectional study design was used with a sample of 350 respondents through demographic questionnaire, Way of Coping (WOC), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8), Visual Analogue Scale For Anxiety (VAS-A), and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The results showed that most caregivers were male (68.6%), married (66%), had long cared for patients (81.4%), had moderate economic status (47.1%), had adaptive coping mechanisms (87.4%), moderate social support (68.6%), moderate anxiety (44.0%) and severe burnout (72.9%). The schizophrenic burnout factors analyzed were marital status, length of caregiver, and the coping mechanisms.
