2016, Intensive and Critical Care NursingCitation Excerpt :Disorientation, nightmares and hallucinations were mentioned by the patients. These kinds of unreal experiences are well described in several studies, which included both mechanically ventilated and not mechanically ventilated patients (Granberg et al., 1998; Löf et al., 2006; Rundshagen et al., 2002). In our study we found the strict immobilisation and the repeated estimations of level of consciousness night and day were strains that increased the risk of disorientation, nightmares and hallucinations.
