Icu Liberation Bundle: A Multidisciplinary Approach, Julie Anne Snyder Amoroso
Icu Liberation Bundle: A Multidisciplinary Approach, Julie Anne Snyder Amoroso
Student Scholarly Projects
Practice Problem: Patients with increased ventilator days see dramatic increases in their chances of developing healthcare-related conditions (HAC). Extended ICU stays increase the potential for problematic issues in patients' physical, mental and spiritual health with short-and-long-term consequences.
PICOT: The PICOT question that guided this project was looking at adult ventilated patients in a medical ICU (P) and what is the effect of initiating interdisciplinary ABCDEF-ICU liberation bundle rounding as (I) compared to no ICU liberation bundle rounding (C) has on the length of ventilator days (O) over eight weeks (T).
Evidence: Evidence from quality studies and backing from the …

Practice Problem: Immobility of patients in the hospital intensive care unit can cause longer stays in the intensive care unit and the hospital. Evidence-based early mobilization of patients helps to reduce length of stay (LOS) and avoid many detrimental sequelae, leading to short and long-term debilitation.
PICOT: The PICOT question that guided this project was: In the adult medical and surgical intensive care units (P), how does implementation of a nurse-driven protocol for early mobility (I), affect the LOS in the intensive care units and the LOS in the hospital (O), as opposed to not using a protocol for early …
