Half of the families of ICU patients do not understand the information provided by doctors and nurses. Receiving clear, loyal and appropriate information is one of their main expectations. We have previously reported that relatives had difficulty asking questions that allow them to improve their understanding regarding ICU issues. In a preliminary study, we developed a list of questions considered as important by families, ICU doctors and nurses.~The aim of this prospective, randomized and controlled trial is to test the effectiveness of a list of frequently asked questions to relatives of ICU patients on their understanding of the provided information.~The intervention consists of the delivery of a list of 21 questions to the relative of each patient admitted in intensive care, intubated and mechanically ventilated in the first 48 hours of ICU stay. A formal interview is scheduled for relatives at Day 3 of inclusion. The information comprehension at Day 5 (± 1) will be compared between families that received the list of FAQ and families that received information as usual (without providing the list of FAQ).
