Abstract in brief

  • The study examined the impact of triggered palliative care consults and family meetings on nurse moral distress and patient outcomes in the ICU during COVID-19, finding no significant change in nurse moral distress levels.
  • Patients in the intervention group experienced earlier DNR decisions, increased documentation of decision makers, higher discharge rates to facilities or hospice, and shorter ICU and hospital stays with lower costs compared to controls.
  • Overall, while the intervention improved certain patient outcomes, it did not significantly affect nurse moral distress, highlighting the need for further research to address this issue in ICU settings.
