Overview
Brief Summary
Psychological impact of intensive care hospitalization for patients has been demonstrated during the last few years: anxiety, depression and post traumatic stress disorder. Hospitalizations during COVID-19 pandemic have been marked by factors such as confinement forbidding family members visits, stress on intensive care unit ...Those factors may have a psychological impact added to factors of long hospitalization and prolonged mechanical ventilation.
For all these reasons the investigators fear that patients hospitalized in intensive care during COVID-19 pandemic develop psychological trouble with an increased risk for those who experienced COVID-19 infection.
