Abstract

Incapacitated patients in ICU are unable to make treatment decisions due to critically ill condition or deep sedation,and their choice of medical decisions is a difficult point in clinical practice. This paper introduces the concept,main body and contents of surrogate decision-making,analyzes the factors affecting surrogate decision-making,and proposed four guiding strategies of surrogate decision-making including strengthening the education of surrogate decision makers and medical staff,strengthening communication and decision aids. It can provide some reference for surrogate decision maker to make the optimal choice and the related research development of surrogate decision.
