Investigating the correlation of delirium after cardiac surgery with memories and posttraumatic stress disorder consequences of intensive care unit: A prospective cohort study. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 82:103632. [PMID: 38290221 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2024.103632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/20/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the differences in post-intensive care unit memory and posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms between patients with and without delirium, and assess the correlations between the two. DESIGN Prospective cohort observation study. SETTING A cardiac intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in China. We enrolled 318 consecutive patients after cardiac surgery between December 2017 and March 2019. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Delirium was assessed using the Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU from intensive care unit admission to discharge. Intensive care unit memory was assessed using the ICU-Memory Tool through face-to-face interviews one week after discharge. Posttraumatic stress disorder was measured telephonically using the Impact of Events Scale-revised questionnaire at three months post-discharge. RESULTS Eighty patients each in the delirium and non-delirium groups were enrolled for follow-up interviews. Patients with delirium had vaguer memories of pre-intensive care unit admission and of their stay, and recollected more memories of feelings (vs. without delirium). Posttraumatic stress disorder was diagnosed in 14 patients with and in seven without delirium, with non-significant differences between groups. Delirium did not influence post-intensive care unit factual, feeling, and delusional memories, nor posttraumatic stress disorder and hyperarousal, intrusion, and avoidance. The memories of feelings were positively correlated with the last three (r = 0.285, r = 0.390 and r = 0.373, respectively). CONCLUSION Patients with delirium had vague intensive care unit memories. Memories of feelings were positively correlated with symptoms of hyperarousal, intrusion, and avoidance. Delirium did not influence factual, feeling, or delusional memories nor posttraumatic stress disorder incidence and symptoms. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE Interventions are needed to reduce the impact of vague memory in patients with post-intensive care unit delirium. Memories of feelings should be focused on because of their correlation with hyperarousal, intrusion, and avoidance. Delirium prevention and early recognition measures are suggested.

Fang Y, Shi L, Qin F, Li T, Zhang X, Li M. Influence of Family-Learned Fear-of-Pain on Patients. Pain Manag Nurs 2024; 25:11-18. [PMID: 37183071 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmn.2023.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fear-of-pain is a common feeling of patients and their family who experience or witness severe or chronic pain. Fear-of-pain may disturb patient's recovery, and also influence family support to assist patients' recovery. AIM This study is to measure the level of family support for each patient; evaluate the extent of the supporting families' fear-of-pain; and identify possible interventions in family support and family fear-of-pain. METHODS This cross-sectional descriptive research involved 77 participants in the orthopedics department of a tertiary hospital by convenience sampling. The online questionnaire includes general information, and scales of fear-of-pain, pain anxiety, pain vigilance and awareness, pain catastrophizing, and family support. T-test, Pearson correlation analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were used to analyze data. RESULTS Most participants reported that they experienced a moderate-to-high level of fear-of-pain, pain anxiety, pain vigilance and awareness. A total of 15.6% of participants are at risk of pain catastrophizing. The family's pain vigilance and awareness, and fear-of-pain were often similar to those of the patient, and their levels of pain anxiety and catastrophizing were often higher than the patient's. Family support and families' fear-of-pain affect patients' feelings of pain and families' behavior in decision-making for patient recovery, necessitating the development of interventions for patients' families. CONCLUSIONS Family members can develop the fear-of-pain from witnessing painful experiences and may exhibit fear-avoidance behaviors in deciding on patients' rehabilitation plan. Family support, including the type of relationship with families, and length of time family spent with the patient, had an effect on patients' pain and fear-of-pain.

The effectiveness of aerobic versus strengthening exercise therapy in individuals with chronic whiplash-associated disorder: a randomised single case experimental design study. Disabil Rehabil 2023; 45:3519-3528. [PMID: 36173391 DOI: 10.1080/09638288.2022.2127937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 09/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Recent RCTs and meta-analyses compare the effectiveness of different types of exercise for chronic whiplash associated disorder (WAD). This study aimed to verify whether the results of these studies translate to statistically significant and clinically meaningful effects in individual participants. MATERIALS AND METHODS A series of replicated randomised single case experimental design studies (SCEDs) with A-B design (A: baseline, B: intervention). Eight participants with chronic WAD (8 female, mean [SD] age 47 [10] years) were randomised into one of four baseline durations (5, 8, 11, and 14 days) and to one of two eight-week exercise interventions (aerobic or strengthening). Daily measures of pain intensity, bothersomeness, and interference were collected during the baseline phase and the intervention phase. RESULTS Visual analyses indicated that three participants in the aerobic exercise group meaningfully improved. No improvements were found in the strengthening group. Effect sizes favoured the aerobic exercise group, yet randomisation tests of pooled effects did not show a difference in between-intervention effectiveness. CONCLUSION Contrary to our expectations, three out of four participants were nearly pain-free at the end of the aerobic exercise intervention, whereas none of the participants in the strengthening group improved meaningfully. This suggests that aerobic exercise may be favourable for WAD.Implications for RehabilitationOur results suggest that aerobic exercises are favourable over strengthening exercises and may be the preferred option for patients with chronic WAD.We found substantial variability in self-reported outcomes within participants, clinicians should be aware of this in the judgement of treatment effectiveness.

Abstract
Swallowing and voice complaints after a whiplash injury have been observed and reported in several studies; however, variability in study design complicates current understanding of whether dysphagia and dysphonia should be recognised as potential adverse outcomes. A scoping review was conducted across six databases from 1950 to March 2019. A total of 18 studies were included for review. Data regarding study purpose, design, outcome measures, participant characteristics and outcomes reported were extracted. Level of evidence (LOE) was assessed by the American Speech-Language Language Association (ASHA)'s LOE system. All studies were exploratory, with 68% rated as poor (< 3) on quality ratings. Nearly half (n = 6) were single case reports. Only three studies investigated some type of swallow-related outcome specifically within the study aim/s. Incidence of swallow-related problems ranged from 2 to 29%, with unspecified complaints of "swallowing difficulty", "dysphagia" and fatigue and pain whilst chewing reported. Neither swallowing biomechanics nor the underlying pathophysiology of swallow or voice complaints was investigated in any study. Four case studies presented post-whiplash voice complaints; two of which described loss of pitch range. Others described hoarseness, loss of control and weak phonation. Most studies only mentioned swallow- or voice-related deficits when reporting a wider set of post-injury symptomatology and six did not describe the outcome measure used to identify the swallow and voice-related problems reported. The existing literature is limited and of low quality, contributing to an unclear picture of the true incidence and underlying mechanisms of whiplash-related dysphagia and dysphonia.

Abstract
Non-oncologic chronic pain is a common high-morbidity impairment worldwide and acknowledged as a condition with significant incidence on quality of life. Pain intensity is largely perceived as a subjective experience, what makes challenging its objective measurement. However, the physiological traces of pain make possible its correlation with vital signs, such as heart rate variability, skin conductance, electromyogram, etc., or health performance metrics derived from daily activity monitoring or facial expressions, which can be acquired with diverse sensor technologies and multisensory approaches. As the assessment and management of pain are essential issues for a wide range of clinical disorders and treatments, this paper reviews different sensor-based approaches applied to the objective evaluation of non-oncological chronic pain. The space of available technologies and resources aimed at pain assessment represent a diversified set of alternatives that can be exploited to address the multidimensional nature of pain.
