Primary

MeasureTime frame
Family Intensive Care Unit Syndrome. Timepoint: At entering the study (before the intervention), at the end of the first week and at the end of the planned visits. Method of measurement: The incidence of this syndrome is measured by the score that people get from filling out the syndrome list of the special care patient's family. This list has 31 terms in two dimensions of psychological threat with 17 terms and non-psychological dimension with 14 terms. Scoring on a five-point Likert scale is always (five), usually (four), sometimes (three), rarely (two), never (one). Total scores range from 31 to 155. Based on this, the more points a person gets from the family of the special care patient's syndrome list, the more it will indicate an increase in the special care patient's family syndrome.
