Abstract:
Survival ≠ Recovery: Managing the Aftermath of Critical Illness
Up to 80% of patients who survive the ICU will develop post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), resulting in physical, cognitive, and psychological impairments. This presentation provides an overview of the clinical manifestation of PICS and risk factors for its development. An approach to PICS evaluation and management in follow-up clinics will also be discussed.
