Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When contemplating the broad field of critical care and all of its complexities, rehabilitation and psychology practice is not likely among the top ten services that clinicians, patients, or the public think of, and rightly so. The vast majority of patients who require intensive care arrive at death's door, and many linger in a limbo-like space somewhere between life and the afterlife. The primary focus at this juncture is often on pressing matters such as reestablishing and stabilizing basic bodily functions, optimizing life-saving machine settings, and deciding who does and does not need additional, urgent interventions. Still, just beneath the surface of this fascinating, multilayered environment, the need for psychologists and rehabilitation-oriented clinicians is everywhere, in large part because intensive care stands among the most emotionally intense and physically taxing hospital-based settings for everyone involved - patients, families, caregivers, and staff alike. Despite this, recognition that psychologists and rehabilitation-oriented professionals could and should be more integrated within the critical care team is uncommon. In fact, it can be argued that some European countries are ahead of the United States (US) in this regard (Agarwala, Ahmed, & Patil, 2011; Andreoli, Novaes, Karam, & Knobel, 2001; Jackson & Jutte, 2016; Peris et al., 2011; Sukantarat, Greer, Brett, & Williamson, 2007; Tan, Brett, & Stokes, 2009; Van den Born-van Zanten, Dongelmans, Dettling-Ihnenfeldt, Vink, & Van der Schaaf, 2016). Fortunately, there are growing integrative trends in the US. In 2010, a conference was convened by the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) with broad goals to inform stakeholders about the multiple long-term consequences of critical illness (e.g., Postintensive Care Syndrome [PICS]) and initiate"--

Download or read book Textbook of Post ICU Medicine written by Robert D. Stevens and published by Academic. This book was released on 2014 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surviving critical illness is not always the happy ending that we imagine for patients. Intensive care unit (ICU) teams have traditionally focused on short term goals such as stabilizing or reversing organ system dysfunction, with little understanding of what became of patients once they left the ICU. However, research conducted in recent years has demonstrated that many ICU survivors can suffer from ill health and mental health issues for months or years to follow. The Textbook of Post-ICU Medicine: The Legacy of Critical Care identifies the long term outcomes of ICU and the steps that can be taken to improve patients' health and wellbeing. Describing the major clinical syndromes affecting ICU survivors, the book delineates established or postulated biological mechanisms of the post-acute recovery process, and discusses strategies for treatment and rehabilitation to promote recovery in the ICU and in the long term. The book serves as a unique reference for general practitioners, internists and nurses caring for long term ICU survivors as well as specialists in intensive care medicine, neurology, psychiatry, and rehabilitation medicine.
