Measuring Family Engagement in Care (The FAME Study)
There are currently no validated tools to specifically measure family engagement in the intensive care unit (ICU). To address this gap, an interdisciplinary team developed a novel instrument to measure family engagement in the ICU. This will be a prospective observational cohort with an embedded qualitative study to validate the …
