During the online implementation of the consumption diary of the Snow Control therapy group, we considered asking pilot participants to note the number of cocaine lines consumed.
During the online implementation of the consumption diary of the web-based self-help intervention, pilot participants stressed the importance of the definition of common standard joints as the most appropriate measure for the consumption diary.
The study team worked with the comprehensive care clinic team to identify gaps and challenges in the implementation and documented the implementation process, including use of the diary, calculation of indicators, and how indicators were used for monitoring and improvement.
Eight weeks before the implementation of ICU diaries in the unit, we designed and distributed a 22-item survey to evaluate the caregivers perception of the program and understand potential sources of concern before implementation, as well as 5 questions meant to collect opinions on practical aspects of the implementation of the project.
Conducted in a program aimed to involve caregivers and facilitate the implementation of an ICU diary, this survey reveals a positive attitude of respondents toward ICU diaries and adequate perception of potential benefits for patients and families.
Data related to the perception of caregivers 6 months after the implementation of ICU diaries in our MICU will also be presented.
We conducted a survey to assess caregivers expectations or fears and identify potential barriers to the implementation of an ICU diary project in our medical ICU.
The following data were collected: delivery of an information leaflet, organization of a formal meeting at admission, at discharge, and in end-of-life situations, type of healthcare workers present during these meetings, type of information delivered by nurses throughout the stay, and location of the traceability of information given to families, and implementation of an ICU diary.
This study adds new insights into the implementation of diaries in ICUs.
