Family touch may heal hidden wounds of ICU trauma

NCT ID NCT07456384

First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated May 03, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a structured program where family members provide gentle sensory stimulation (like talking, touching, or playing music) to their brain-injured loved one in the ICU can lower the family's own risk of post-traumatic stress. About 200 relatives will be trained to do this during the patient's awakening phase. The main goal is to see if this involvement reduces severe stress symptoms three months after the ICU stay.
