简要总结
Assisted animal therapy (AAT) is getting more and more used worldwide, in such areas as gerontology, psychiatry, or oncology. It is a complementary therapy, and benefits for patients are various, including decrease of anxiety. In ICU, some case reports exist, but no study has ever been made in order to prove its benefits, not even its feasibility.
In ReAnimal, the investigator aims to compare a group of patients receiving assisted animal therapy, versus a group of patients not receiving it. Primary objective will be the evolution of anxiety scores between the 2 groups of patients. Secondary objectives will be the comparison of mood scores, post traumatic stress syndrome scores, pain scores, and physiologic parameters such as blood pressure, cardiac frequency. The investigating team will also compare multi drug resistant bacteria incidence between the 2 groups. In the assisted animal therapy group, patients will also be asked to answer a satisfaction questionnaire.
