The longer that patients remain in the ICU, the more likely they are to suffer long-term physical, cognitive and emotional effects of being sedated. In fact, those effects have a name: 'post-intensive care syndrome.'
Nic Brown, 38, couldn't get out of bed to write his message of gratitude himself, so he dictated to one of his nurses at the Cleveland Clinic. Photos of Brown's message went viral after the Cleveland Clinic posted them on Twitter.Worldwide, physicians have only just started to learn about this new virus that in three months' time has sickened nearly 600,000 people, including more than 100,000 people in the U.S.
Brown, the Ohio man who has now been discharged from the Cleveland Clinic ICU, appears so far not to have suffered lasting trauma from his time there. Technology may have also helped, as Brown was able to remain in contact with his loved ones. That, perhaps, has helped him avoid post-intensive care syndrome.
