Context
Intensive care unit (ICU) patients experience physical and psychological challenges related to ICU admission in the acute and recovery phases after a critical illness. Involvement of family caregivers (FCs) is essential in the patients' struggle to survive critical illness. FCs report a high symptom burden related to ICU admission. Previous research has investigated mainly single symptoms. Little is known about multiple symptom burden related to FC experiences in an ICU.Objective
This study aimed: 1) to describe the occurrence, severity, and distress related to multiple symptoms in FCs of ICU patients, and 2) to identify associations between the background characteristics and symptom burden of FCs.Methods
This cross-sectional study investigated multiple symptoms in adult FCs of ICU patients. FCs completed a self-report symptom assessment questionnaire within 2 weeks after the patient's admission to the ICU.Results
FCs (N=211) experienced a median of 9 (range 0–24) symptoms, among which, worrying (91%) was the most occurring. Severity and distress varied between symptoms. Younger age, being a spouse of an ICU patient, and having more comorbidities were significantly associated with the number of symptoms.Conclusions
FCs of ICU patients experience multiple symptoms, among which, psychological symptoms are most occurring. Age, relationship to the patient, and comorbidities were significantly associated with the number of symptoms reported by FCs. Comprehensive symptom assessment may identify FCs who are at risk of developing a high symptom burden when the patient is admitted to the ICU. 相似文献3.

The pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is a high-tech setting aimed at restoring health to critically ill children. When childhood death occurs in the PICU, it constitutes a special context for parent bereavement. The purpose of this interdisciplinary qualitative research was to gain a deeper understanding of parents' needs around the time of their child's death in the PICU. Through interviews and focus groups with bereaved parents and hospital chaplains, categories of parents' needs emerged. Deeper understanding of parents' needs will allow health professionals to better support parents during bereavement as well as to provide more customized care. 相似文献

Patient Blood Management underscores a fundamental shift from a product-centered approach to a patient-centric approach through timely application of evidence-based medical and surgical concepts designed to maintain hemoglobin concentration, optimize hemostasis, and minimize blood loss in an effort to improve patient outcome. In this concept, allogeneic blood transfusion is not viewed as the treatment of default for anemic patients, but one among many treatment modalities that should be weighed based on its merits—potentials risks and benefits—for the individual patient in the context of other alternatives. Patient blood management provides a multidisciplinary framework for patient-centered decision making with strategies focusing on the management of anemia, optimization of coagulation and hemostasis, and utilization of blood conservation modalities. Among the critically ill patients, Patient Blood Management can be particularly effective given the extremely high prevalence of anemia, variable and unjustified transfusion practices, high frequency of coagulation disorders, and avoidable sources of blood loss such as unnecessary diagnostic blood draws. Proper management of anemia—prevention, screening/monitoring, diagnostic workup, and treatment including hematinic agents—is the key to effective implementation of patient blood management. Blood transfusions should be used in accordance of current guidelines, which are supportive of more restrictive transfusion strategies in most critically ill patients. Emerging studies report on the success of Patient Blood Management programs in reducing transfusion utilization, reducing the burden of anemia in patients, and improving patient outcomes including shortened length of hospital stays, less frequency of complications and lower risk of mortality. 相似文献

《The Journal for Nurse Practitioners》2019,15(10):777-781
Acute care nurse practitioners manage a wide range of patient diagnoses and problems encountered in critical care, including management of delirium. As such, they are positioned to be leaders in the prevention, recognition, and management of delirium in the intensive care unit setting. Delirium in the hospitalized patient is linked with a prolonged length of stay, higher risk of death, and cognitive decline. Delirium will occur in up to 87% of intensive care unit patients with severe illness or recovering from major surgery. This overview of current evidence-based practice guidelines and an accompanying case study will assist interdisciplinary teams of health care providers to diagnose, treat, and manage hospitalized patients with delirium, with a focus on the complex care of the critically ill patient population. 相似文献

目的探讨长期气管切开患儿照顾者的居家照护体验。方法采用半结构式访谈法,访谈13名照顾者,并依据Miles和Hurberman提出的质性研究资料分析法予以分析。结果经不断分析比对,共析出长期气管切开照顾者"照护负荷"、"精神困扰"及"益处发现"3个主题;"从束手无策到熟练掌握"、"亲职角色改变"、"社交隔离"等8个亚主题。结论临床工作者通过了解长期气管切开照顾者的照护体验,了解其身心反应、照护需求等。可在长期气管切开患儿入院时即构建个性化的延续护理方案,合理安排其出院后日常生活;培训照顾者各项专业操作,训练其心理调适技巧,而且可通过挖掘其自身资源促进照顾者体验积极心理变化等,以实现良好心理适应;促进患儿康复,提高其生活质量。 相似文献
