Abstract:
Background and Aim

Patients undergoing mechanical ventilation have verbal communication deficits due to endotracheal intubation. As there is s trend towards light sedation patterns nowadays, communicating is considered to be one of the major challenges for these mechanically ventilated patients. The purpose of this study was to describe the communication experiences of mechanically ventilated conscious patients in the intensive care units.

Material and methods

In this study, the phenomenological method was used to explain the experiences of conscious patients undergoing mechanical ventilation communication in the intensive care unit of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Urmia. For data collection, 10 participants who had at least 24 hours of mechanical ventilation consciousness in the intensive care unit were interviewed over a 6-month period in 2019-2018. The researchers used the Colaizzi method to analyze the data and in order to facilitate the classification of the primary codes, the MAXQDA version 10 software was used.

Finding

From the primary codes, the two main themes of "psychological suffering" and "resilience" were formed. The main themes of psychological suffering included the sub-themes of "fear of deprivation" and "being ignored by others" and the main theme of resilience included the sub-themes of "understanding the role of care providers and family" and also the "use appropriate alternatives".

Conclusion

Mechanically ventilated conscious patients are in an effort to increase communication, and when health providers continue to communicate with these patients, a sense of hope, increased levels of self-esteem and controlling conditions is developed in patients.
