In critically ill patients, a prolonged hospital stay, due to the initial acute insult and adverse side-effects of drug therapy, may cause severe late complications, such as muscle weakness, prolonged symptoms, mood alterations and poor health-related quality of life. The clinical aims of physical rehabilitation in both medical and surgical intensive care units (ICUs) are focussed on the patien...
Most Americans are in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) at some point during their lives. There is wide variation in the outcome quality of ICUs and so, thousands of patients who die each year in ICUs may have survived if they were at the appropriate hospital. In spite of a policy agenda from IOM calling for effective transfer of patients to more capable hospitals to improve outcomes, there appear to...
Pain is a common and distressing symptom experienced by intensive care patients. Assessing pain in this environment is challenging, and published guidelines have been inconsistently implemented. The Pain Assessment in INTensive care (PAINT) study aimed to evaluate the frequency and type of physician pain assessments with respect to published guidelines. This observational service evaluation con...
OBJECTIVE This exploratory study describes space allocation among different generic categories of functions in adult intensive care units (ICUs) showing how the amount of space of any one functional category is related to that of another functional category, and how different strategic choices, such as size, construction type, specialty type, and layout type, affect space allocation in these IC...
SummaryBackground Identifying patients at higher risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in intensive care units (ICUs) represents a major challenge for public health. Machine learning could improve patient stratification and lead to targeted infection prevention control interventions. Aim To evaluate the performance Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) II...
In 2010 the SAFE-TRIPS investigators reported on resuscitation fluid administration in 391 intensive care units (ICUs) in 25 countries.(1) The study found that more than one third of patients in the ICUs received resuscitation fluids on the study day and that the choice of fluid administered was determined by local practice and habit rather than by any identifiable patient characteristic. Given...
We report the results of an International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) surveillance study from January 2007-December 2012 in 503 intensive care units (ICUs) in Latin America, Asia, Africa, and Europe. During the 6-year study using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) U.S. National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) definitions for device-associated health care...
Context Hospital-acquired blood stream infections (BSI) remain as an important cause of morbidity and mortality in intensive care units (ICUs) and other high-risk settings. Incidence rates vary considerably, depending on factors such as patient characteristics, type of invasive procedures, infection control practices, definitions and duration of hospital stay. Recently reported BSI rates in int...
