Description

For decades we have sedated patients with the belief that it is more humane to “sleep” through critical illness. Survivors have told us their experiences were not “sleep” to them. What do neurologists and researchers say about the quantity and quality of sleep during medically-induced comas? Dr. Williams Roberson shares with us her research and invaluable insights into sedation and sleep. Photos, transcriptions, and citations at: www.DaytonICUConsulting.com @DaytonICUConsulting

Kali Dayton, DNP, ACNP-BC, is an ICU nurse practitioner and ICU consultant. She hands the microphone to ICU survivors and bedside caregivers to reveal the realities of ICU experience and patients' journeys after discharge. The big picture of sedation and immobility is discussed and we explore how to improve short and long-term patient outcomes. We shift the vision from transferring out of the ICU to walking straight home after the ICU. www.DaytonICUconsulting.com Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/restoringlife/support
