Summary
This study tested whether adults who had been in the ICU and felt distressed about it would use a mobile app to help process those memories. 29 people used the app for 6 weeks, and the researchers checked if it was practical and acceptable. The goal was to see if this approach could reduce psychological distress and improve health behaviors after critical illness.
