Improving Family-Centered Care in the Intensive Care Unit through Organizational Intervention 

27th July 2023, Thursday at 9 am Eastern Standard Time

Critical illness has a profound and lasting impact on patients and their families. The effects of critical illness may impair the physical, cognitive, and psychological recovery of patients who survive their ICU stay, as well as the family members who care for them. In this presentation, Dr. Vranas will discuss the long-term impact of critical illness on outcomes of patients and their families, and review the growing evidence base supporting the use of organizational interventions to improve family-centered care in the intensive care unit (ICU). 

Speaker: Dr. Vranas attended Santa Clara University in California for her undergraduate studies, then earned her M.D. degree from Cornell University in New York City in 2008. She completed internal medicine residency at the University of Pennsylvania and her fellowship in Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship at Stanford University. Dr. Vranas then moved back to her home state of Oregon, where she joined the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care at Oregon Health & Science University and the Portland VA Medical Center as an attending physician and critical care health services researcher. Her research is focused on understanding how organizational factors and processes of care influence the outcomes of critically ill patients and their families. 

Live webinar is open to all.

Registration closes 26th July, 2023 at 10 am (eastern time)
