Sleep and Circadian Rhythm Intervention in ICU

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are frequently exposed to various stressors that contribute to severe sleep disruption and circadian rhythm disturbances. Growing evidence suggests that circadian rhythm disruption plays a critical role in the development of multiple adverse outcomes in critically ill patients. Therefore, implementing interventions that prioritize the maintenance of normal circadian, sleep, and behavioral patterns may represent an important strategy to improve outcomes in ICU patients.
