简要总结
ICU patients who experience delirium, face a substantial risk of consequences, including prolonged hospital stays in the ICU, a sluggish recovery, a high death rate, and eventually an overburdening of the healthcare system .Delirium is a substantial problem in critically ill patients. Involvement of caregiver in care and allowing them for 24 hours near their patient as in flexible visiting policy there is reduced incidence of delirium in ICU patients, without increasing the risks of nosocomial infection or mortality. But still maximum ICUs are having restrictive visiting policy**.** Since there are currently no noteworthy randomized trials examining the effects of flexible family visiting rules on patients, family members, and ICU staff, it may be challenging to decide how to implement ICU visiting policies most effectively**.**Hence the aim of this study is to explore the effect of “flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol on incidence of delirium among patients admitted in ICUs and their caregiver satisfaction and compare it with restrictive visiting policy of ICU.
H0 (1): There is no significant difference in the incidence of delirium among patients admitted in ICUs with flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol and restrictive visiting policy.
H0 (2): There is no significant difference between flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol and restrictive visiting policy on caregiver’s satisfaction
Ha (1): Flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol will reduce the incidence of delirium among patients admitted in ICUs.
Ha (2): Flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol will improve caregiver’s satisfaction.
Ha (3): Flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol will decrease in the length of ICU stay.
Ha (4): Flexible visiting policy with specific communication protocol will not increase hospital acquired infection in patients admitted in ICUs.
