Family Presence at the PICU Bedside and Pediatric Patient Delirium: Retrospective Analysis of a Single-Center Cohort, 2014–2017
In our 2014-2017 retrospective cohort, greater family presence was associated with lower odds of delirium in PICU patients. Family presence is a modifiable factor that may mitigate the burden of pediatric delirium, and future studies should explore barriers and facilitators of family presence in the PICU.
