Abstract:
:The issue of the presence of patients' loved ones during their intensive care unit (ICU) stay is a frequently discussed topic among ICU staff. Today, ICU patients' loved ones are seen as important for the care of the patient.

The aim of this study was to explore the frequency and duration of loved ones' visits and whether or not such visits have an impact on patient outcome. A prospective, explorative observational study design was used. The sample included 198 ICU patients from a general ICU in Sweden. Twenty-five per cent of the patients had no visitors whatsoever. Forty-seven per cent of the patients who had visitors had visits of
