We will hopefully cover all things ICU not just from the patient perspective but also for the numerous fields involved in caring for a patient in ICU as well as helping them recover afterwards. Myself and any guests I have will speak as candidly about our experience in ICU regardless of what side of the experience we come from. My hope is this will dispel any myths or misunderstandings on what it is like to be in ICU. I was in ICU for 3 weeks, 2 1/2 in a medically induced coma, I suffer from Sepsis and ARDS while in ICU and a whole host of psychological and physical issues afterwards.

Awake and Walking ICU and delirium discussion with Kali Dayton

Talking with Nurse Practioner, Podcaster and my good friend Kali Dayton (of Walking Home from the ICU and Walking through the ICU) about the benefits of the awake and walking ICU model. We talk about life in ICU and the effects of 'treatments' in a patient's long term recovery. We talk about my favourite topic delirium and the things we do in ICU that risk increasing instances or duration of delirium.

Kali is a wonderful person who works very hard to improve the ICU environment for patients by reducing the practice of sedating all intubated patients and getting them back moving as soon as possible. The Old adage an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure really applies to her work. If you stop patients deconditioning then you don't need to put them through long rehabilitation afterwards.
