Abstract

The author, an internist and psychiatrist who works with intensive care unit (ICU) patients, offers reflections and clinical insights on implementing a psychodynamic framework when treating survivors of critical illness. In this short essay, contributions from the critical care and psychoanalytic literature are included to highlight the significance of post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) and the psychodynamic considerations that might enhance the treatment of this patient population.
