Abstract
Background: Patients in the ICU are exposed to 24 hours of light exposure to abnormally low light levels during the day and constant light disturbances throughout the night. Prolonged abnormal light exposure can impact the circadian rhythm, which may indirectly affect the patient's physiological condition. Objectives: This literature review aims to determine the effect of light exposure on the physiological condition of patients in the ICU, including heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP), body temperature and sleep quality and offer possible alternative options. Methods: Qualitative synthesis by collecting research articles for the last five years from Google Scholar, Science Direct, Scopus, Medline, CINAHL, PubMed, and ProQuest. Results: There were 5 international journals with experimental and observational research designs. Abnormal light exposure in the ICU has an effect on increasing the heart rate and decreasing the quality of sleep of the patient. Conclusion: Compared to a decrease in nighttime light levels, an increase in artificial light during the day may be more promising to support the improvement of the patient's physiological condition.

Summary
1. Ada perbedaan yang signifikan desain eksperimental yang antara aktivitas pasien siang dan dilakukan selama bulan malam tetapi tidak antara kondisi. Untuk pasien di ruang biasa tetapi tidak di ruang intervensi. Suhu tubuh terendah pada malam pencahayaan siklus, bahan hari untuk semua pasien tanpa langit-langit yang berbeda perbedaan yang signifikan antara dan dinding dan tekstil kondisi. Apa adanya tersebut memiliki ritme sirkadian dan tanpa pergantian, alami; dan intervensi pencahayaan berfungsi sebagai kontrol siklus tidak menunjukkan dampak (ruang biasa). Tindakan berulang yang lebih besar harus dilakukan untuk menentukan apakah jenis pencahayaan lain atau faktor lingkungan dapat memengaruhi kesejahteraan pasien
