简要总结
The aim of this prospective cohort study was to investigate the effect of the time spent with relatives of patients treated in a tertiary intensive care unit on patient outcomes.
The main question it aimed to answer was:
Does spending more time with relatives of patients in intensive care result in lower sedative agent requirements? Does spending more time with relatives of patients in intensive care result in less delirium, fewer ventilator days, and shorter ICU stays?
