简要总结
This study investigates the effectiveness of a technology-driven, interactive ICU diary in reducing psychological distress, specifically anxiety, depression, and stress, in ICU patients. A single-blind, parallel-group randomized controlled trial will include 56 conscious ICU patients. The primary outcome measures are the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the EuroQol instrument (EQ-5D), assessed at ICU admission, discharge, and one month post-discharge.
详细描述
This study investigates the effectiveness of a technology-driven, interactive ICU diary in reducing psychological distress, specifically anxiety, depression, and stress, in ICU patients. A single-blind, parallel-group randomized controlled trial will include 56 conscious ICU patients, randomly assigned to either the interactive diary group or the standard care group. The interactive diary allows patients to share their feelings and needs via a platform, while family members can send supportive messages, pictures, and videos. Healthcare providers can connect with families and monitor patient conditions through the platform. The primary outcome measures are the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the EuroQol instrument (EQ-5D), assessed at ICU admission, discharge, and one month post-discharge. The expected results indicate that the interactive diary will significantly alleviate psychological distress during the ICU stay and improve post-discharge quality of life, providing valuable insights into enhancing the mental health and overall well-being of ICU patients.

结局指标
主要结局
Psychological Distress Levels (DASS-21)
时间窗: 7 days after admission and one month post-discharge.
The primary outcome will be the psychological distress levels measured by the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). This scale assesses anxiety, depression, and stress in ICU patients through 21 items, each rated from 0 ("Did not apply to me at all - Never") to 3 ("Applied to me very much, or most of the time - Almost always"). The total score for each subscale (DASS-21-Depression, DASS-21-Anxiety, and DASS-21-Stress) ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating greater emotional distress. The cutoff scores for DASS-21-Depression, DASS-21-Anxiety, and DASS-21-Stress are \>9, \>7, and \>14, respectively.
次要结局
- Quality of Life (EQ-5D)(7 days after admission and one month post-discharge.)
