Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CHEST Critical Care: Family Engagement in the ICU - Not Just Information Sharing and Decision-Making

Q: What practical steps can ICU teams take to improve engagement, such as rounds and visitation?

Suggestions include using About Me boards, inviting families to rounds, introducing all team members to families, and ensuring clinicians explain that rounds involve discussing medical problems with language families may not fully understand, while maintaining confidence and care.

CHEST Critical Care: Family Engagement in the ICU - Not Just Information Sharing and Decision-Making

Q: What weren't captured by the previous definition, and what new themes emerged in your analysis?

New themes centered on bidirectional trust and communication/repair, emphasizing that disagreements and conflict can be managed constructively to support engagement.

CHEST Critical Care: Family Engagement in the ICU - Not Just Information Sharing and Decision-Making

Q: Tell us why you thought we should do this study and what you think was missing from the way family engagement had previously been understood.

Christoph explains that previous definitions were not fully aligned with lived ICU experiences and describes how they used framework analysis to test and extend Brown et al.'s five-domain model (information sharing, respect and dignity, collaboration, activation/participation, and decision-making).

CHEST Critical Care: Family Engagement in the ICU - Not Just Information Sharing and Decision-Making

Q: Before we begin, can you introduce yourself? Tell us where you work and what you do there.

Ella Christoph introduces herself as an instructor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, focusing on family experiences in the ICU and clinician-, patient-, and family-centered outcomes.

Association Between Admission Eosinophil Count and Hospital Resource Use in Community-Acquired Pneumonia: A Prospective Multicenter Study

Q: If you had to share three pearls from your work, what would they be and why?

First, measure eosinophil counts on admission to identify high-risk patients; second, do not assume all non-eosinopenic patients are low-risk; third, consider eosinophil counts as one part of a broader triage strategy amid limited ICU capacity.
