This study provided further insights into the liminal patient experiences of being isolated in the ICU due to COVID-19. Robust themes of experience were achieved through an in-depth phenomenological approach. Although, similarities in experiences compared to other patient groups exist, the precarious situation constituted by COVID-19 lead to significant intensifications across multiple parameters.
