ABSTRACT Loss of speech due to mechanical ventilation is common among patients admitted to intensive care. This condition, often referred to as voicelessness, can generate negative emotions such as frustration and anger. Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) techniques are useful for facilitating communication, but their use can be complex ...

Early Sedation Intensity and Psychological Outcomes in Critically Ill Adults
ABSTRACT Background Long‐term psychological impairment is a major concern for intensive care unit (ICU) survivors. Early deep sedation during mechanical ventilation has been associated with poor short‐term outcomes and mortality after ICU discharge; however, its relationship with psychological outcomes remains unclear.
