Should she have an operation, and risk the pain, potential complications, and attendant delirium associated with the operation? Should she be treated non-operatively, with aggressive symptom management? And I came to the now I think naive conclusion that fixing and avoiding complications was the secret.

Just encourage patients and families to bring music into their healthcare experience. Our volunteers are starting to take over ownership of this program, so we’re kind of like building a team to help kind of maintain it, manage it, and make sure that everything’s on the up and up with it. And it has a great impact.

This idea that for critically ill patients in the ICU, geriatric conditions like disability, frailty, multimorbidity, and dementia should be viewed through a wider lens of what patients are like before and after the ICU event was transformative for our two guests today.
