Summary
Key Learning Points
1. Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) affects between 40 and 60 per cent of critical illness survivors, and manifests as new impairments of cognitive, psychological and/or physical function.
2. Major risk factors for PICS include >72 hours of mechanical ventilation, prolonged ICU delirium, maternal/obstetric critical illness and baseline physical and mental health co-morbidities.
3. The typical service model of follow-up care includes a face-to-face outpatient review approximately 2–3 months following discharge home, with follow-up visits at 6 and 12 months where required.
4. Physical, cognitive, psychological and global clinical outcomes should be evaluated using domain-specific tools and assessments.
5. Critical care recovery clinics provide an important opportunity to reconnect with patients and ‘re-humanise’ the ICU care delivered.
