主 题：Effective Medical Creation Five Sense False Window Intensive Care Unit
摘 要：Effective Medical Creation (EMC) is a kind of campaign to implement a team healthcare that can provide the most efficient and effective intensive care units (ICUs) by improving hospital room environment for not only patients and their family but also healthcare providers. This campaign was based on the concept of the “Art of Medicine, which provides everyone a comfortable ICU environment of meditation and feeling with the five senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. EMC can provide a healthcare environment that is not restricted by existing and traditional verse rules or style and aims to always provide better healthcare by working on the five senses. Provision of facilities for aromatherapy massage at an ornamental hospital room and landscape through a false window has been the ongoing activity of the EMC at Nara Medical University. These seemed effective in reducing a patient’s stress response in the ICU. However, the effect of EMC on the outcomes of critically ill patients has not been determined. EMC might be one of the promising measures to create environments that positively affect both patients and healthcare providers. In this review article, the concept of EMC and practice of EMC at Nara Medical University Hospital are presented.
