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 -Lawaai veroorzaakt slaapverstoringen
Op de intensive care unit van het Borås Ziekenhuis in Zweden, heeft een groep onderzoekers onderzocht wat de invloed is van lawaai op ernstig zieke patiënten. Zij kwamen erachter dat door de hoge geluidsniveaus en geluidspieken de patiënt gestrest raakt en daardoor minder goed kan slapen. En slaap is een van de belangrijkste voorwaarden om te herstellen.
