Noise causes sleep disruption for critical care patients
This leaflet includes insights on how the sleep quality of critically ill patients is affected by sound and what staff knows about the topic.
Borås study - Lärm verursacht Schlafstörungen
Auf der Intensivstation des Borås Hospital in Schweden, untersuchte eine Gruppe von Forschern, wie schwerkranke Patienten von Lärm betroffen sind. Sie fanden heraus, dass die hohen Schalldruckpegel und der Lärm die Patienten gestresst und weniger schlaffähig machen. Und der Schlaf ist einer der wichtigsten Aspekte der Genesung.
