Abstract

This paper details the development of ICU-Talk, a computer-based communication aid. This aid has been designed specifically for patients who are temporarily unable to communicate due to intubation and/or ventilation within a hospital Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The very specific needs of this client group have been considered by the multi-disciplinary research team and incorporated into the design of the system.
