No detailed report has been published on the practical observations of mental impairments in these patients. Case presentation A 33-year-old man was admitted with COVID-19 pneumonia. On day 6, he was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Considering the risk of nosocomial infection, as per the hospital policy, early rehabilitation could not be initiated for COVID-19 patients at that time and family visits were not allowed. Thereafter, his respiratory condition gradually improved; he was discharged on day 19. When the ICU nurse called to assess his medical condition, the patient complained of insomnia after ICU discharge. Therefore, we called him for an outpatient visit 28 days after discharge and scored his mental health status. Conclusion Careful follow-up is required to treat mental impairment in patients with COVID-19.

Grunow Rudolf Morgeli, MD; Max Rosenthal, MD, phD; Steffen Weber-Carstens, MD, phD; Bjoern Weiss; Claudia Spies, MD, phD. Publisher or Source: Thieme Medical Type of Media: Medical Journal Media Originally for: Critical Care Physicians, Nurses and/or Other Critical Care Medical Professionals Country of Origin: Germany Primary Focus of Media: Post Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) COVID-19 Related: No Description: Delirium, the most common form of acute brain dysfuntion affecting up to 80% of intensive care unit (ICU) patients, has been shown to predict long term cognitve impairment, one of the domains in "Post-ICU Syndrome" (PICS). The ICU environment affects several potentially modifiable risk factors for delirium, such as disorientation and disruption, of the sleep-wake cycle. Innovative solutions aim to transform standard concepts of ICU room design to limit potential stressors, and utilizing the patient care space as a treatment tool, exerting positive, therapeutic effects. The main areas affected by most architectural and interior design modifications are sound environment, light control, floor planning, and room arrangement. Implementation of corresponding solutions is challenging considering the significant medical and technical demands of ICUs. This article discusses innovative concepts and promising approaches in ICU design that may be used to prevent stress and to support the healing process of patients, potentially limiting the impact of delirium and PICS.

Hopkins, PhD; Deborah Louis, RN, MSN; Theodore J. Iwashyna, MD, PhD​​​​​ Publisher or Source: Society of Critical Care Medicine Type of Media: One-Pager Media Originally for: Former ICU Patients or Their Caregivers, General Public Country of Origin: United States Primary Focus of Media: Post Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) COVID-19 Related: No Description: Millions of patients are admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) each year, one third of whom need a machine to help them breathe (ventilator). These critically ill patients may develop health problems related to their illness, injury, ventilator or other treatments. Such problems cannot be totally prevented and can continue after the patient leaves the hospital. Delirium, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and sepsis increase the chances of these problems occurring. They, too, may not always be prevented. If you are an ICU patient or family member, this guide helps you understand the health problems known as post-intensive care syndrome, or PICS, so you know what to look for when you return home. It also includes tips on how to minimize PICS. Many people develop PICS, and help is available. You will have the best chance of recovery if you explain your health problems to your primary care doctor, who can refer you to the specialists you need.
