SPACE Experience – Sensory & Physical Activity Completed Early on PICU 

Introduction: 

What  will participants benefit from the session?

Understanding what risks need to be considered when moving a patient out of bed.

Understanding how many people are required for rehabilitation activities on ICU.

Through the use of the original piece of music, understand the different sensory experiences and emotions PICU patients experience and how this adds to their anxiety and stress.

Focus on Sensory and Physical Activity Completed Early.

Set Up

The room will be set up with equipment present in the PICU environment, such as a ventilator, IV attachments and ?ECMO machine.

The delegates will be split into 2 groups and take part in a SPACE Race. One group will need to mobilise a patient out of the cot into a specialist seat with all attachments and patient secure and the second group will need to transfer the patient with all attachments back into the cot.

The delegates will complete the race whilst listening to an original piece of music through headphones which will demonstrate the “sounds of PICU” and all the different emotions that our patients may go through.

Hosts: Rakhee Pau, Clinical Specialist Occupational Therapist 
Joanna Dukes, Clinical Specialist Physiotherapist in Paediatrics
Samantha Mead, Clinical Specialist Physiotherapist
