Description

For family members of survivors, the ICU diary is an important source of medical information, provides a way for them to register their presence at the patient’s bedside and express their feelings, and contributes to humanizing the ICU staff. For relatives of non-survivors, the diary also works as a concrete memory of their loved one’s last days before dying, helping relatives to cope with bereavement.Systematic Review: Exploring family members’ and health care professionals’ perceptions on ICU diaries: a systematic review and qualitative data synthesis.Imaging in Intensive Care Medicine from the inside: Caring for COVID‑19 patients and their relatives with the ICU diarySpeakers: Dr Rahul COSTA-PINTO.
