Summary

The purpose of this study is to use CBT strategies in assisting patients hospitalized in intensive care units in ventilation wean through a case series of 2 patients.

Detailed description

Approximately a third of patients in intensive care are mechanically ventilated. The current weaning standard of care leaves much to be desired in both patient anxiety and time to wean. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the gold standard treatment for anxiety. The purpose of this study is to use CBT strategies in assisting patients hospitalized in intensive care units in ventilation wean through a case series of 2 patients.

Conditions

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Cognitive Behavioral Therapy	This study focuses on patients who are on a mechanical ventilator and who have been medically cleared to come off of it. The purpose of the study is to learn more about the possible influence of cognitive behavioral therapy in helping patients who are having some trouble getting off of the ventilator. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a highly effective intervention for anxiety and the investigators are evaluating whether cognitive behavioral therapy might be helpful in cases where it is difficult to come off of the ventilator. Cognitive behavioral therapy is experimental for mechanical ventilation assistance as no research to date has evaluated whether it might be helpful.
