Summary

This study will enroll 60 family members of ICU patients who need a tracheostomy or feeding tube. Researchers will test whether giving information in a way that matches the family's education level reduces anxiety and improves satisfaction with the decision. The goal is to learn how to better support families during these stressful choices.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better, more tailored ways to support families making tough ICU decisions, reducing their anxiety and improving satisfaction.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage observational study (60 people) that measures feelings and satisfaction, not medical outcomes. Results may not apply to all families or hospitals.
