Successful ICU e-diary implementation depends on more than the technology. This multicentre study highlights the importance of training, champions, leadership and ongoing support for sustained adoption.

@A_MacLullich A question that appears repeatedly in my written notes from when I was unable to communicate verbally, saved and incorporated in my #ICUdiary.
I conveyed my absence of memories to family and staff through written notes, while still a patient in the ICU and unable to communicate verbally.

"I can't remember" – Patients who have had #delirium often experience a feeling of 'lost time'. You can help by clearly explaining what delirium is & answering their questions. Give them a narrative of what has happened to them.
In 426 ICU survivors, delusional memories were common and associated with the development and persistence of PTSD symptoms
ICU Diaries and other interventions might help
Congratulations @MarkBoogaard and team

“What is date today?”
This question appears repeatedly in my written notes from when I was unable to communicate verbally, that were saved in my #ICUdiary.

“I needed to be told the date every time. Repetition ≠ patronising.”

"Solitude, isolation and loneliness".
Words I used to describe my delirium experience in this e-book (Perception versus Reality) by @DaytonICU - https://t.co/Mu1EUYkCM3

#delirium #PICS #ICUdiary
A feeling of loneliness or isolation is commonly reported in people experiencing #delirium.
Don't leave them feeling like this. Speak kindly, explain what is happening, involve family.
“I cant remember anything.”
As written by my hand in real-time, while still a patient in the ICU and unable to communicate verbally.
I relied on my #ICUdiary to reclaim the lost time.

So glad @ChristinaJones will be included to speak about the importance of #ICUDiaries. They help ##ICUSURVIVORS reclaim their lives.
My #ICUDiary helped me put the pieces of my life back together.
Thank you @NydahlPeter for all you do.

I had a dreadful time with #delirium, driven by auditory and visual hallucinations.
It is evidenced repeatedly through my real-time handwritten responses, from when I was unable to communicate verbally, that were saved and incorporated in my #ICUdiary (https://t.co/NL00jmvZMh)
Direct yet gentle questioning on hallucinations for people with #delirium:
"Have you noticed anything odd recently, like seeing unusual or unexpected things?"
My written response to a senior nurse at @GHFT_DCC when asked that very question:
#delirium #ICUdiary
In #delirium, patients rarely volunteer that they are hallucinating. Here's one useful way of asking about hallucinations:
"Have you recently experienced anything strange, like visions or voices that seem very real but others don't notice?"
Thrilled to have secured funding to deliver our "ICU Virtual Tour" to help patients and families make sense of their experience after discharge.
Watch this space for more....
A huge thank you to @AdelaideHealthF for funding this worthy project 🙏
Our Critical Care Psychology team presenting an overview of the service, now four years young in @TUH_Tallaght.
Hundreds of critically ill patients have recieved support during and/or following their illness, with families and staff supported also.
@TUH_Psychology #IHPG2025
In the days following my release from four-weeks of sedation, my partner made the following note in my #ICUdiary:
“I think Dave is confused.”
#delirium
Families usually know before clinicians: "Dad is not usually confused."
Yets staff still are inconsistent in using the word "delirium".
If we as professionals can't get it right, we are failing families - there is no other way of describing this.
#delirium
Return visits to ICU @GHFT_DCC (GRH) and @glenfield_aicu, were a big part of my psychological healing and provided an added layer to my #ICUdiary (https://t.co/NL00jmvZMh)
However, it should be approached with caution because it does have the potential to re-traumatise.
#delirium
A patient returned for an ICU visit recently; struggling w/memories of #delirium
Met a nurse who provided care.
Didn't remember her until.. she took his hand.
Memories of her holding his hand, "the warmth", came flooding back.
Compassionate care matters.
#ICUDelirium #Nursing
Fifteen years after my ICU event (H1N1-ARDS), the residual issue that continues to impact me the most on a daily basis is my short-term memory.
I can trace the source back to the post-coma #delirium period, through the written communications that were incorporated in my #ICUdiary
For many, #delirium has a long shadow.
E.g. cognitive dysfunction may persist long after discharge:
40% have new /worsened cognitive impairment at 3 months
25% show effects at 1 year
Many never return to baseline
➡️ Always consider the need for follow-up.
@caz_sampson @glenfield_aicu Thank you Caz, you are a little after my time at Glenfield. It has always saddened me that I have no memory of my time there because I was sedated for the duration but fortunately, I have my #ICUdiary to fill the blanks. I owe Glenfield so much.
Have a great Christmas. 🎄
@A_MacLullich The value of my 50-day #ICUdiary in my psychological recovery has been immeasurable.
The diary disentangled my fragmented and delusional recall of events, allowing me to reclaim my life by anchoring my experience in reality.
