Ten things to consider when implementing rationing guidelines during a pandemic
Alexander Supady, Daniel Brodie, J. Randall Curtis
Abstract
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) are facing a threatening environment while their health is at risk. In addition, the non-invasive ventilation procedure causes stress and anxiety which reduce cooperation. We developed an intervention containing hypnotic suggestions to improve patients well-being during non-invasive ventilation in the ICU. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility, safety, and acceptance of this intervention.
