This is a single-center, unblinded, pragmatic randomized controlled trial comparing family participation in cardiac ICU team rounds with usual care. We will recruit 112 family members.

Direct participation of the family member in the daily rounds

When the team arrives at the participating family member's room, the family member will be invited by a member of the healthcare team to come out of the room. The rounding team and structure will be the same as the usual care group with the following exceptions: (1) the family member will be invited to participate in the rounds outside their relative's room; (2) the family member will be provided with an orientation to the medical team members; (3) the family member will be allowed to engage and participate throughout the rounds; (4) at the end of the rounds, the team will summarize the patient's daily care plan; (5) the family member will be prompted to ask questions.
