Study Summary

Psychological morbidity in both patients and family members related to the intensive care unit (ICU) experience is an often overlooked, and potentially persistent, healthcare problem recognized by the Society of Critical Care Medicine as Post-intensive Care Syndrome (PICS). ICU diaries are an intervention increasingly under study with potential to mitigate ICU-related psychological morbidity, include ICU-related PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), depression and anxiety.

Primary Outcome

Scores from 1-22 are consistent with mild PTSD, and scores greater than 22 signal clinically significant PTSD symptoms.
