Abstract
AIM To analyze the association of individual pre-ICU risk factors (obesity, physical and mental comorbidity, smoking status) on the long-term recovery process in survivors of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS; outcomes: health related quality of life, health care utilization; measured at 12, 24, and 36 months after ICU discharge). FINDINGS Results show a possible causal link between pre-ICU risk factors and subsequent recovery of survivors of ARDS, especially with regard to mental health related quality of life. PURPOSE Identifying relevant pre-existing risk factors, such as mental health problems, will enable the identification of at-risk patients, thus aiding in the improvement of long-term healthcare for survivors of critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survivors of critical care are at risk of long-term disability from musculoskeletal (MSK) impairments. These can have a biopsychosocial impact on the patient and their families with a reduction in health-related quality of life, increased health care utilization, caregiving roles and associated psychological distress. AIMS To understand the experiences of patients living with MSK impairments following critical illness, and family and health care professionals supporting them, to inform the development of a future intervention to improve MSK health following critical illness. STUDY DESIGN A four-site qualitative case study approach will be taken, with each of the four hospital sites and associated community services representing a case site. We will conduct semi-structured interviews with 10-15 patients/family members and 10-15 health care professionals about their experiences of MSK impairment following critical illness. Interviews will be audio recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis within a descriptive phenomenological approach. Alongside interview data, analysis of publicly available policy documentation, patient-facing materials and information from service leads at the four sites will be conducted. Discourse analysis will be used for this case study documentation. RESULTS This protocol describes a qualitative study exploring the experiences of patients living with MSK impairments following critical illness, and the family and health care professionals supporting them. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Data analysis will illuminate their experiences and enable data richness to contribute to the qualitative body of evidence of intensive care unit (ICU) survivors. These findings will inform the development of a complex intervention for MSK rehabilitation after critical illness.

Abstract
PURPOSE Describe the long-term development of outcomes for survivors of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). MATERIAL AND METHODS A cohort study with N = 877 ARDS survivors was conducted. Health related quality of life (HRQoL, Physical and Mental Component Scale: PCS, MCS of the SF-12), return to work (RtW), panic disorder, depressive symptoms (PHQD), and post-traumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD, PTSS-14) were assessed at 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after discharge from ICU. RESULTS PCS, MCS, and RtW increased during the first 12 months [e.g. PCS: Md = 36 (IQR 31-43) at 3 months, Md = 42 (IQR 34-52) at 12 months; MCS: Md = 44 (IQR 32-54) at 3 months, Md = 47 (IQR 33-57) at 12 months, RtW = 23.2% at 3 months, 54.5% at 12 months], and remained relatively stable afterwards. Proportion of major depressive syndrome decreased from 3 (14.2%) to 36 months (8.9%). Proportions of panic disorder (5.3% to 7.4%) and PTSD (27.1% to 32.6%) varied only slightly. CONCLUSIONS Most of recovery in HRQoL and RtW occur during the first 12 months, after which a plateau is reached, indicating a chronification for many patients. Contrary to this, however, psychopathological symptoms remain stable, except for depressive symptoms. [200 words].

Piloting an ICU follow-up clinic to improve health-related quality of life in ICU survivors after a prolonged intensive care stay (PINA): feasibility of a pragmatic randomised controlled trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:344.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ICU survivors often suffer from prolonged physical and mental impairments resulting in the so called "Post-Intensive Care Syndrome" (PICS). The aftercare of former ICU patients affected by PICS in particular has not been addressed sufficiently in Germany so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a pragmatic randomised trial (RCT) comparing an intensive care unit (ICU) follow-up clinic intervention to usual care. METHODS This pilot study in a German university hospital evaluated the feasibility of a pragmatic RCT. Patients were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to an ICU follow-up clinic intervention or to usual care. The concept of this follow-up clinic was previously developed in a participatory process with patients, next of kin, health care professionals and researchers. We performed a process evaluation and determined acceptability, fidelity, completeness of measurement instruments and practicality as feasibility outcomes. The RCT's primary outcome (health-related quality of life) was assessed six months after ICU discharge by means of the physical component scale of the Short-Form-12 self-report questionnaire. RESULTS The pilot study was conducted from June 2020 to May 2021 with 21 and 20 participants in the intervention and control group. Principal findings related to feasibility were 85% consent rate (N = 48), 62% fidelity rate, 34% attrition rate (N = 41) and 77% completeness of outcome measurements. The primary effectiveness outcome (health-related quality of life) could be measured in 93% of participants who completed the study (N = 27). The majority of participants (85%) needed assistance with follow-up questionnaires (practicality). Median length of ICU stay was 13 days and 85% (N = 41) received mechanical ventilation, median Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score was nine. Six-month follow-up assessment was planned for all study participants and performed for 66% (N = 41) of the participants after 197 days (median). CONCLUSION The participatory developed intervention of an ICU follow-up clinic and the pragmatic pilot RCT both seem to be feasible. We recommend to start a pragmatic RCT on the effectiveness of the ICU follow-up clinic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to evaluate epidemiological characteristics, clinical course and outcome of mechanically ventilated non-surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients, with the aim of improving the strategic planning of ICU capacities. DESIGN We conducted a retrospective observational cohort analysis. Data from mechanically ventilated intensive care patients were obtained by investigating electronic health records. The association between clinical parameters and ordinal scale data of clinical course was evaluated using Spearman correlation and Mann-Whitney U test. Relations between clinical parameters and in-hospital mortality rates were examined using binary logistic regression analysis. SETTING A single-centre study at the non-surgical ICU of the University Hospital of Frankfurt, Germany (tertiary care-level centre). PARTICIPANTS All cases of critically ill adult patients in need of mechanical ventilation during the years 2013-2015 were included. In total, 932 cases were analysed. RESULTS From a total of 932 cases, 260 patients (27.9%) were transferred from peripheral ward, 224 patients (24.1%) were hospitalised via emergency rescue services, 211 patients (22.7%) were admitted via emergency room and 236 patients (25.3%) via various transfers. In 266 cases (28.5%), respiratory failure was the reason for ICU admission. The length of stay was higher in non-geriatric patients, patients with immunosuppression and haemato-oncological disease or those in need of renal replacement therapy. 431 patients died, which corresponds to an all-cause in-hospital mortality rate of 46.2%. 92 of 172 patients with presence of immunosuppression (53.5%), 111 of 186 patients (59.7%) with pre-existing haemato-oncological disease, 27 of 36 patients (75.0%) under extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy, and 182 of 246 patients (74.0%) undergoing renal replacement therapy died. In logistic regression analysis, these subgroups and older age were significantly associated with higher mortality rates. CONCLUSIONS Respiratory failure was the main reason for ventilatory support at this non-surgical ICU. Immunosuppression, haemato-oncological diseases, the need for ECMO or renal replacement therapy and older age were associated with higher mortality.

Durable functional limitation in patients with coronavirus disease-2019 admitted to intensive care and the effect of intermediate-dose vs standard-dose anticoagulation on functional outcomes. Eur J Intern Med 2022; 103:76-83. [PMID: 35879217 PMCID: PMC9212871 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejim.2022.06.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2022] [Revised: 06/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients affected with severe forms of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) suffer from a wide range of sequelae, from limited airway diseases to multiple organ failure. These sequelae may create exercise limitation, impair the daily activity and thus impact the mental health and the social life. However, the extent of functional limitations and depressive symptoms are understudied especially in patients with COVID-19 after intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization. METHODS The Intermediate versus Standard-dose Prophylactic anticoagulation In cRitically-ill pATIents with COVID-19: An opeN label randomized controlled trial (INSPIRATION) was a clinical trial that randomized ICU patients with COVID-19 to intermediate-dose vs standard-dose anticoagulation. In the current study, we assessed the interval change in 30-day and 90-day functional limitations based on the post-COVID-19 functional status scale (PCFS) and depressive symptoms based on the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) in the trial participants. We also assessed the effect of intermediate-dose vs standard-dose prophylactic anticoagulation on the functional outcomes and depressive symptoms. RESULTS Of 600 randomized patients in INSPIRATION, 375 (age: 62 years; 42% women) participated in the functional status study. 195 patients died during the 90-day follow up (191 by day 30). Among survivors, between day 30 and day 90, the proportion of patients with moderate-to-severe functional limitation (PCSF grade 3-or-4) decreased from 20.0% to 4.8% (P <0.001) and PHQ-2 ≥ 3 decreased from 25.5% to 16.6% (P = 0.05). The proportion of patients with no functional limitations (PCFS grade 0) increased (4.2% to 15.4%, P<0.001). Intermediate-dose compared with standard-dose prophylactic anticoagulation did not impact the 90-day proportion of patients with PCFS grade 3-or-4 (5.3% vs 4.2%; odds ratio (OR), 1.20, [95% CI, 0.46-3.11]; P = 0.80) or PHQ-2 ≥ 3 (17.9% vs 15.3%; OR, 1.14, [95% CI, 0.79-1.65]; P = 0.14), with similar results when accounting for study center. CONCLUSION In patients with COVID-19 admitted to the ICU, functional limitations and depressive symptoms were common at 30-day follow-up and had some improvement by 90-day follow-up among survivors. Intermediate-dose compared to standard-dose prophylactic anticoagulation did not improve functional outcomes.

Abstract
Approximately 10% of all patients requiring intensive care develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The COVID-19 pandemic led to an accumulation of patients with severe ARDS. The experience of this severe respiratory failure is accompanied by feelings of existential anxiety in many patients.The complexity of the challenges and stresses that the disease and its treatment pose for the ARDS patient require an early multiprofessional approach to treatment already during intensive care. Psychological approaches are suitable to support the patient as well as the relatives in coping with the disease and to minimise risks for potential subsequent stress. Despite the long-term impairments of patients who have survived ARDS and the resulting need for follow-up care, suitable multimodal follow-up care concepts and the necessary care structures are still lacking. The article presents the psychological support during and after the intensive care treatment of ARDS.

Abstract
Purpose Worsening quality of life (QOL) is an important health issue in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) survivors. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of worsening QOL among ARDS survivors and their association with mortality. Methods South Korean National Health Insurance database information for all adults admitted to intensive care units for ARDS from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2018 who survived ≥ 365 days were included in this study. Results A total of 4452 ARDS survivors were included in the final analysis. Total QOL had worsened in 1667 (37.4%) of the survivors at the follow-up 1 year after being diagnosed with the syndrome. Specifically, 1298 patients (29.2%) experienced decreased income, 334 (7.5%) lost their jobs, and 327 (7.3%) had newly acquired disabilities. In the multivariable Cox regression analysis, worsening QOL was not associated with 2-year all-cause mortality among survivors (P = 0.140). However, newly acquired disability was associated with 1.74-fold (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.74, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31–2.33; P < 0.001) higher 2-year all-cause mortality, while decreased income (P = 0.571) and unemployment (P = 0.952) were not associated with it. In addition, newly acquired respiratory disability was associated with a 6.61-fold higher risk of 2-year respiratory mortality (HR: 6.61, 95% CI 3.14–13.90; P < 0.001). Conclusions At the 1-year follow-up period, one-third of ARDS survivors experienced worsening QOL in South Korea. Specifically, newly acquired disability was associated with a higher risk of 2-year all-cause and respiratory mortality among patients who survived ARDS.

Abstract
Introduction: Long-term quality of life, return to work, economic consequences following Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) are not well described in India. This study was aimed to address the question. Methods: A prospective cohort study of 109 ARDS survivors were followed up for a minimum of 6 months following discharge. Quality of life was assessed using the SF-36 questionnaire. Respiratory quality was assessed using the St Georges Respiratory Questionnaire. Time to return to work was documented. Costs-direct medical, as well as indirect were documented up to 6 months. Results: At 6 months, 6/109 (5.5%) had expired. Low energy/vitality and general heath were noted in the SF-36 scores at 6 months; overall a moderate quality of life. Pulmonary function tests had mostly normalized. Six-min walk distance was 77% of predicted. Respiratory quality of life was good. It took at the median of 111 days to go back Interquartile range (55–193.5) to work with 88% of previously employed going back to work. There were no significant differences in the severity of ARDS and any of these outcomes at 6 months. The average total cost from the societal perspective was 231,450 (standard deviation 146,430 -, 387,300). There was a significant difference between the 3-ARDS severity groups and costs (P < 0.01). There were no independent predictors of return to work. Conclusion: ARDS survivors have low 6-month mortality. Pulmonary physiology and exercise capacity was mostly normal. Overall, quality of life is average was moderate, while respiratory quality of life was good. Return to work was excellent, while cost of care falls under a catastrophic heath expense.

Abstract
Background COVID‐19 disease can lead to severe functional impairments after discharge. We assessed the quality of life of invasively ventilated COVID‐19 ARDS survivors. Methods We carried out a prospective follow‐up study of the patients admitted to the Intensive Care Units (ICUs) of a teaching hospital. Patients affected by COVID‐19 ARDS who required invasive ventilation and were successfully discharged home were assessed through the telephone administration of validated tests. We explored survival, functional outcomes, return to work, quality of life, cognitive and psychological sequelae. The main variables of interest were the following: demographics, severity scores, laboratory values, comorbidities, schooling, working status, treatments received during ICU stay, complications, and psychological, cognitive, functional outcomes. Results Out of 116 consecutive invasively ventilated patients, overall survival was 65/116 (56%) with no death occurring after hospital discharge. Forty‐two patients were already discharged home with a median follow‐up time of 61 (51‐71) days after ICU discharge and 39 of them accepted to be interviewed. Only one patient (1/39) experienced cognitive decline. The vast majority of patients reported no difficulty in walking (32/35:82%), self‐care (33/39:85%), and usual activities (30/39:78%). All patients were either malnourished (15/39:38%) or at risk for malnutrition (24/39:62%). Exertional dyspnea was present in 20/39 (51%) patients. 19/39 (49%) reported alterations in senses of smell and/or taste either before or after hospitalization. Conclusions Invasively ventilated COVID‐19 ARDS survivors have an overall good recovery at a 2‐months follow‐up which is better than what was previously reported in non‐COVID‐19 ARDS patients.

Long-term quality of life in necrotizing soft-tissue infection survivors: a monocentric prospective cohort study. Ann Intensive Care 2021; 11:102. [PMID: 34213694 PMCID: PMC8253876 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-021-00891-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Accepted: 06/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Compared to other life-threatening infection survivors, long-term health-related quality of life (QOL) of patients surviving necrotizing soft-tissue infections (NSTI) and its determinants are little known. In this monocentric prospective cohort including NSTI survivors admitted between 2014 and 2017, QOL was assessed during a phone interview using the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD), the activity of daily living (ADL), instrumental ADL (IADL) scales and the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R). The primary outcome measure was the SF-36 physical component summary (PCS). NSTI patients were compared according to intensive care unit (ICU) admission status. ICU survivors were matched on SAPS II with non-NSTI related septic shock survivors. Results Forty-nine NSTI survivors were phone-interviewed and included in the study. Median PCS was decreased compared to the reference population [− 0.97 (− 2.27; − 0.08) SD]. Previous cardiac disease was the only variable associated with PCS alteration [multivariate regression coefficient: − 8.86 (− 17.64; − 0.07), p = 0.048]. Of NSTI survivors, 15.2% had a HAD-D score ≥ 5 and 61.2% an IES-R score ≥ 33. ICU admission was not associated with lower PCS [35.21 (25.49–46.54) versus (vs) 41.82 (24.12–51.01), p = 0.516], but with higher IES-R score [14 (7.5–34) vs 7 (3–18), p = 0.035] and a higher proportion of HAD-D score ≥ 5 (28.6 vs 4.0%, p = 0.036). Compared to non-NSTI septic shock-matched controls, NSTI patients had similar PCS [33.81 (24.58; − 44.39) vs 44.87 (26.71; − 56.01), p = 0.706] but higher HAD-D [3.5 (1–7) vs 3 (1.5–6), p = 0.048] and IES-R scores [18 (8–35) vs 8 (3–19), p = 0.049]. Conclusions Long-term QOL in NSTI survivors is severely impaired, similarly to that of non-NSTI septic shock patients for physical compartments, but with more frequent depressive and/or post-traumatic stress disorders. Only ICU admission and previous cardiac disease were predictive of QOL impairment.
