Sumario: The current research project had the objective of establishing the perceived burden on informal caregivers of patients with disabilities attending the Fundación Teletón (Teletó n Foundation) - Cartagena. It was made using a longitudinal, non-experimental quantitative approach, using as instrument the Zarit caregiver Burden Interview (ZCBI/ZBI) scale (Zarit, 1982). We included 85 informal caregivers of patients with disabilities, identifying that the caregiver role is mostly performed by females with a 76%, of which the mothers stand out with a 54%. According to the results, we found that 31% of the interviewed show an intense burden, and 11% are at risk with a mild burden; the prior data is significant as a whole, to determine the burden of caregivers of users attending the foundation. While applying the ZBI scale, we didn't find any barriers in its use. We tried to determine the burden, and thus, contribute to the review of the caregiver role
