    Description

    We habitually lie to ourselves and our patients' families when the word “sleep” leaves our tongues in reference to sedated patients. Why is sleep so vital to survival in the ICU? What prevents our patients from preserving their sanity and cognitive function? What has COVID taught us about the role of sleep in the ICU? Dr. Margaret Pisani, intensivist and sleep researcher, ties it all together for us. Photos, transcriptions, and citations at: www.DaytonICUConsulting.com @DaytonICUConsulting

    Kali Dayton, DNP, ACNP-BC, is an ICU nurse practitioner and ICU consultant. She hands the microphone to ICU survivors and bedside caregivers to reveal the realities of ICU experience and patients' journeys after discharge. The big picture of sedation and immobility is discussed and we explore how to improve short and long-term patient outcomes. We shift the vision from transferring out of the ICU to walking straight home after the ICU. www.DaytonICUconsulting.com Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/restoringlife/support
