"Impact of Virtual Family Interaction on Anxiety and Physiological Responses in ICU Patients: A Quasi-Experimental Study"

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Critical illness often causes anxiety and physiological instability in ICU patients, worsened by separation from family. Restricted visitation policies further limit emotional support. Virtual communication, such as video calls, offers a safe alternative, shown to reduce anxiety, enhance satisfaction, and stabilize physiological parameters. This quasi-experimental study evaluates the impact of virtual family interaction on ICU patients’ vital signs and anxiety, aiming to support evidence-based, patient-centered care.
