Abstract

Objective: To analyze the protocol for an open-door intensive care unit. Methods: Descriptive observational study. Results: 60% of the surveyed population described that the ICU of the General Quevedo Hospital of the Ecuadorian Institute of Social Security is not adapted to maintain an open-door ICU and that it is currently not functioning. Conclusion: The structural adaptation of the ICU should guarantee safety and comfort with the objective of becoming a comfortable and welcoming place where humanization is considered a priority.  The design of an open-door ICU protocol at the Hospital General Quevedo of the Instituto Ecuatoriano de Seguridad Social provides technical assistance in the organization of visits and promotes that health care is directed to satisfy the physical and emotional needs of the patient.
