RESUMEN Objetivos: identificar la correlación entre el manejo familiar y el estado socioeconómico de niños y adolescentes con trastornos neurológicos. Métodos: estudio descriptivo y correlacional con 141 miembros de la familia, que respondieron un cuestionario sobre información socioeconómica y gestión familiar. La recopilación de datos tuvo lugar entre mayo y septiembre de 2016 en un Centro de Neurología Pediátrica. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo y analítico utilizando pruebas estadísticas para evaluar la correlación entre las variables investigadas. Resultados: la mayor duración de la enfermedad infantil y juvenil se correlacionó con una mayor puntuación de dificultad de manejo. El mayor ingreso familiar se relacionó con un puntaje de habilidad gerencial más alto y un puntaje de dificultad familiar más bajo. La educación materna superior se asoció con una puntuación de visión más baja del impacto de la enfermedad y la dificultad familiar. Conclusiones: las familias en la situación socioeconómica más desfavorable tuvieron mayores dificultades en el manejo familiar.
RESUMO Objetivos: identificar a correlação entre o manejo familiar e a situação socioeconômica de crianças e adolescentes com distúrbios neurológicos. Métodos: estudo descritivo, correlacional, com participação de 141 familiares, os quais responderam a um questionário sobre informações socioeconômicas e do manejo familiar. A coleta de dados ocorreu entre maio e setembro de 2016, em um Centro de Neurologia Pediátrica. Realizou-se análise descritiva e analítica, com uso de testes estatísticos para avaliar a correlação entre as variáveis investigadas. Resultados: o maior tempo de doença infanto-juvenil foi correlacionado a um maior escore de dificuldade de manejo. A maior renda familiar foi relacionada ao maior escore de habilidade de manejo e ao menor escore de dificuldade familiar. A maior escolaridade materna associou-se ao menor escore de visão do impacto da doença e dificuldade familiar. Conclusões: as famílias em situação socioeconômica mais desfavorável tiveram maiores dificuldades no manejo familiar.
