Eye-Tracking Interactive Agent in Non-verbal ICU Patients

Sponsor: Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether an eye-tracking interactive agent can ameliorate communication impairments and reduce the incidence of complications among non-verbal patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the eye tracking interactive agent alleviate communication impairments among non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent improve communication efficiency among non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent m reduce the incidence of negative emotions among non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent shorten the ICU length of stay for non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent reduce the dosage of analgesic and sedative medications for non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent improve family satisfaction for non-verbal patients in the ICU? Does the eye tracking interactive agent alleviate nurses' communication burden among non-verbal patients in the ICU? Researchers will compare eye tracking interactive agent to conventional techniques to see if e eye tracking interactive agent works to alleviate communication impairments. Participants will: Use an eye tracking interactive agent for augmentative communication for 2 consecutive days Document each communication's details, ICU LOS, and analgesic-sedative dosages; assess communication difficulty severity, delirium, anxiety, family satisfaction and nurses' communication burden with validated scales.
