<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> The term intensive care unit (ICU) delirium or ICU psychosis denotes the transient period of psychosis exhibited by the geriatric patients placed in long term ICU care. This condition can be mistaken for organic neurological deterioration and can result in improper treatment, delayed rehabilitation and longer ICU stay. The objective of the study was to analyse the outcome of early ward rehabilitation in post-surgical patients with ICU psychosis.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> This is a

Abstract:
Purpose: The recent literature regarding intensive care unit (ICU) delirium and updated clinical practice guidelines are reviewed. Summary: Recent studies show that ICU delirium in critically ill patients is an independent predictor of higher mortality, longer ICU and hospital stay, and is associated with multiple clinical complications. Delirium has been reported to occur in greater than 80% of hospitalized critically ill patients, yet it remains an underdiagnosed condition. Several subtypes of delirium have been identified including hypoactive, hyperactive, and mixed presentation. Although t

Abstract:
The purpose of monitoring of the patient in an intensive care unit (ICU) is to improve patient care, like bringing about a change in the treatment or transfer of the patient to a step-down unit. Monitoring also shows the extent of compliance with a formulated standard of care or the degree of deviation from the expected standard of care. The monitoring used for a patient admitted to an ICU can be invasive or noninvasive. Invasive monitoring in an ICU includes arterial blood pressure, transesophageal Doppler, central venous pressure (CVP) measurement, pulmonary artery catheterization, arterial

Background It has become more common for patients with long-term diseases or receiving aggressive cancer treatments to need intensive care. Research about palliative care in the intensive care unit (ICU) largely focuses on decision-making in relation to end-of-life care and organ donation. Few studies examine the current evidence about how palliative care in its wider conceptualization is understood by intensive care health care professionals.

Operating room (OR) to intensive care unit (ICU) handoffs are complex and known to be associated with adverse events and patient harm. The authors hypothesized that handoff quality diminishes during nights/weekends and that bedside handoff practices are similar between ICUs of the same health system. Bedside OR-to-ICU handoffs were directly observed in 2 surgical ICUs with different patient volumes. Handoff quality measures were compared within the ICUs on weekdays versus nights/weekends as well as between the high- and moderate-volume ICUs. In the high-volume ICU, transmitter delivery scores

ABSTRACT Poor sleep quality is a consistently reported by patients in the ICU. In such a potentially hostile environment, sleep is extremely fragmented and sleep architecture is unconventional, with a predominance of superficial sleep stages and a limited amount of time spent in the restorative stages. Among the causes of sleep disruption in the ICU are factors intrinsic to the patients and the acute nature of their condition, as well as factors related to the ICU environment and the treatments administered, such as mechanical ventilation and drug therapy.

Abstract:
Sleep disturbances are common among patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU); however, these issues tend to receive less attention because critical care is prioritized in seriously ill patients. Recent studies have reported that sleep disturbances in patients admitted to the ICU are associated with delirium, weakened immunity, long-term cognitive decline, and persistent sleep disorders. Sleep disturbances in the ICU are attributable to the disease per se and also to the ICU environment that is not conducive to good sleep. Continuous exposure to light and noise are major environmental

Abstract:
Introduction - Maximising efficient and effective use of resources without compromising quality of care is essential in the current healthcare climate. Intensive care unit services are one of the most resource intensive and therefore expensive services within a hospital. Because intensive care unit services comprise a significant portion of hospital costs and resources, appropriate utilisation of intensive care units is imperative. The occurrence of delayed discharges and the reason for the delays is important as they impact on the efficiency and effectiveness of intensive care unit services.

Sleep deprivation is a multifactorial phenomenon, occurring frequently in the intensive care unit (ICU) and linked to adverse patient healthcare outcomes. The key practice question of this project focused on determining if retiming of routine laboratory and imaging testing outside of the designated “quiet time” can improve sleep quality among adult patients in the ICU. The purpose was to evaluate the effectiveness of implementing an evidence-based intervention to improve sleep quality in the ICU setting.

Nurses who work in the intensive care settings (or units, ICU) in Canada encounter a growing number of patients living with obesity (PLWO) in clinical practice. Many authors suggest that the number of PLWO who are admitted to the ICU has increased significantly because obesity is on the rise in Canada. PLWO are thought to be at a higher risk for developing chronic illnesses and life-threatening complications that require an admission to the ICU. They are also more likely to develop postoperative complications that require life-sustaining treatments, invasive hemodynamic monitoring and evaluati

Abstract:
Internationally and nationally it is recognised that there is a shortage of Registered Nurses (RNs), which is occurring within a context of increasing costs of health care and limited funding. The specialist area of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is one area that requires numerous resources. The patients admitted to ICU need advanced specialist care involving significant human resources (nursing, medical, allied health) and equipment. One method that is utilised to manage the ICU nurse resource is workload tools. Workload tools guide manager’s decisions related to the allocation of ICU nurses.

VOCs are having a substantial impact on Ontario’s healthcare system. On March 28, 2021, the daily number of new SARS-CoV-2 infections in Ontario reached the daily number of cases observed near the height of the second wave, at the start of the province-wide lockdown, on December 26, 2020.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine compared with propofol in mechanically ventilated patients with sepsis. Condition being studied: Sepsis, which is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, contributes the highest mortality to intensive care units (ICU) worldwide . Because of the high incidence of respiratory failure in sepsis care, mechanical ventilation is always adopted to give life support and minimize lung injury . And sedation is a necessary component of sepsis

The Public Health Agency of Canada identifies older adults as being particularly vulnerable to COVID-19 and at high risk for severe illness and death.1 In 2019, 9.1 million people in Canada were aged 60 and older, representing about one-quarter of the total population.2 As of April 27, 2020, about 37% of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Canada were diagnosed in adults aged 60 and older, and this age group accounted for more than half (56%) of all coronavirus cases with pneumonia. Adults aged 60 and older had the highest proportions of severe outcomes with 66% of reported COVID-19 hospitalizations,

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Lorazepam and other benzodiazepines (BZDs) are considered the first choice for treatment of Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS). But they have significant addiction potential and can cause fatal respiratory depression if used in large doses. The aim of our study is to conduct a network meta-analysis to provide some data support for the clinical treatment of AWS. The patients were persons with alcohol withdrawal. The intervention being studied must be a comparison of the efficacy of the two pharmacologic treatments. The study should not be included if two pharmacologi

Abstract:
Objectives. Rapid response systems address unexpected and unrecognized clinical deterioration on general hospital wards and aim to prevent cardiorespiratory arrests. These systems have an afferent limb (recognition and activation) and an efferent limb (response). Our main objectives were to determine the effectiveness of rapid response systems on patient safety and clinical outcomes and how rapid response systems can be implemented effectively. Methods. We searched PubMed and the Cochrane library for eligible systematic reviews and primary studies published from January 2018 through June 2023,

Abstract:
Purpose/Background Central venous catheters (CVC) are typical for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Due to the invasiveness of this procedure, there is a high risk for central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). These infections have been known to increase mortality and morbidity, medical costs, and reduce hospital reimbursements. Evidenced-based interventions were grouped to assemble a central line bundle to decrease the number of CLABSIs and improve patient outcomes. This scoping review will evaluate the literature and examine the association between reduc
