Hola a todos, my dear friends. Noise maybe is something invisible in the ICU. And although we have spoken of it here or here, I have the feeling of that we have last of tiptoe, almost without making noise. We are not aware of how alarms affects our patients, or how professionals are exposed in our day to day to [...]

I believe that the first step is to understand that despite we are human beings we are not always humanized, because humanize is a mode of being, living, interacting, growing us, moving us and traveling to the inside, to experience life in another way. All of us want to be older, but we could have best moments, and create highlights [...]

It is brave to tackle a topic as death in a documentary, which has ceased to be a part of our everyday experience (but not in our destiny, what else we would like!). Our culture has finished hiding so essential moment, that used to be another social event. First relegating it to the intimacy of the family. Then, inadvertently, leaving [...]

Anyone who knows me doesn´t be surprise if I begin this post with a proverb: "It is a trait of the high-born to be grateful". The unique claim of these words is to honor to all those intensive care professionals (intensivists, nurses, assistants, cleaners, secretaries and guards) who have preceded us in the work of "the critical patient care"; many [...]

Mamen Segovia and José Carlos Igeño were this time who went to Quito to talk about this #benditalocura (holy madness) which humanization is. And we [...]

Gregorio Marañón: "The best things of the world always have been made by the diletanttis, who make things by delight, love and not by obligation or routine." This week, in the Gregorio Marañón Hospital, the project of humanization in which we have been working since last October has been made official. Nearly a year of work has gradually been growing [...]

Thus become the fourth and fifth Scientific Societies that support this #benditalocura (holy madnes), and encourage us to follow on [...]

It still sounds in my head that quote of Dr Diaz Rubio during my Grad Ceremony: “Doctors sometimes heal, but when we cannot, we must take care and support our patients. This is as important as healing could be”. Last night life taught me something new. Life…an my box 18 ICU patient, Madame R. After a few days in the [...]
