Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The study consists of conducting two semi-structured interviews, with an estimated duration of 15 to 30 minutes, with siblings of children hospitalized in pediatric intensive care at Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital and Robert Debré Hospital. The first interview will take place during the stay in intensive care, the second 1 month after discharge from pediatric intensive care.
The study will concern children and adolescents aged 9 to 18 years old because this is a population at risk in this situation. Concepts of illness, death and its irreversible nature evolve during childhood. By definition, there are three major stages which are: 0-6 years; 7-11 years; 10-18 years. For older children (\> 10 years) these definitions are well established and they would be more at risk of presenting psychiatric disorders later (post-traumatic stress disorder, major depressive syndrome, etc.).
