Interventions

• Encounter visit with Patients — BEHAVIORAL
  Participants in this encounter group will be asked to complete a pre and post-intervention survey, participate in a meeting with a former ICU patient at a post-ICU clinic, and undergo an in-person interview within fourteen days following the encounter.
• Non-encounter surveys — BEHAVIORAL
  Surveys will be completed pre and post patient follow-up.

Study Details

This study is being conducted to describe the impact of a meeting between patients that were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and a provider that cared for the patients during the period of critical illness. The study team is aiming to describe the effect this meeting has on the physician that previously cared for the patient. The study team hypothesizes that facilitating involvement in post-ICU clinic and creating longitudinal relationships between providers of critical care and survivors of critical illness will have positive effects on trainees, both in professional fulfillment and burnout scores and in perceptions of critical care.
