Mrs. Tabea T. does not remember anything.

“E: Yes, it’s actually… I can’t really remember anymore. I have only dreamed.
And for me it was always a restlessness and just not necessarily such good experiences. So… but just, I mean, I didn’t consciously experience that.
I: You are also welcome to tell about the dreams, because for you that is your experience.
E: Yes. To me it’s just always so restlessness, always in different places. So I have experienced everything. So: outside, inside and… actually rarely in the same place. And always… I am someone who is very active and I always lay and then I dreamed that I could not fall asleep, not sleep well. And just restless just. Not easy – yeah, it’s just… for me it’s been a bit of a pain.”

Experiences in the intensive care unit

With the technical and medical possibilities on intensive care a patient can be able to survive life-threatening illnesses. These experiences of critical illness and intensive care medicine are challenging for patients and families. Often experiences made on intensive care unit (ICU) can be life changing.
In small video- or audio-sequences we would like to illustrate the experiences made by patients on ICU and how they handled their stay in this critical situation.
Many patients share their experiences on intensive care unit and show how these experiences influenced their life.

We are curious about your story!
