Description

What if we were as worried about "brain-protective strategies" as "lung-protective strategies" in the ICU? Such an approach will never be standardized until the ICU community truly recognizes the brain injuries survivors are left with after sedation and immobility. Until post-ICU syndrome is widely known and the impact is deeply appreciated, we will continue to fall short of evidence-based sedation and mobility practices. Only true experts can help us understand.
The real experts on post-ICU syndrome (PICS) are those that live with it. Carol Billian joins us now to share her personal expertise.

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
