About this study

Official title: Post-traumatic Stress Disorder in Relatives of Patients Admitted to the ICU: a Multicenter, Observational, Prospective Study (FAME Observational)

The aim of the present research is to set up a large multicentric, prospective cohort of family members of patients admitted to intensive care. The data collected will concern the patients and their family members, the caregivers and the functioning of the services during the collection period. This cohort will allow:

  1. to carry out a quantitative evaluation of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a large number of family members, to determine the risk factors in relation to the characteristics of the family members, and to define a predictive model of PTSD in this population
  2. to determine the factors related to the operating conditions of the resuscitation services that favor the occurrence of PTSD in the family members,
  3. to create a biological bank from blood samples taken from family members,
  4. to carry out a qualitative study allowing a psychological and sociological analysis of the experience of the family members concerning the hospitalization in intensive care of their loved one.
