Presented by Patricia J. Ohtake, PT, PhD, James Smith, PT, DPT, and Hallie Zeleznik, PT, DPT

Recovery From Critical Illness: Examination and Evaluation for PICS

Subscribe now, and access clinical education and patient education—anytime, anywhere—with video instruction from recognized industry experts.
Video Runtime: 80 Minutes; Learning Assessment Time: 51 Minutes

Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) was described by the Society of Critical Care Medicine in 2012 to increase awareness of the problems that survivors of critical illness face following hospital discharge. To identify the physical, cognitive, and mental health problems associated with PICS, it is important to employ a systematic approach to examination and use evidence-based outcome measures and screening tools. Early identification and assessment of the problems associated with PICS will enhance the development of comprehensive plans of care, facilitate referrals to an interprofessional team, and optimize the tracking of patient outcomes. This course will provide clinicians with an examination strategy that is based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model and uses standardized, evidence-based outcome measures. Those providing posthospitalization services, such as nursing, rehabilitation, social work, nutrition, and primary care will learn strategies for examination of PICS.

Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) was described by the Society of Critical Care Medicine in 2012 to increase awareness of the problems that survivors of critical illness face following hospital discharge.

However, interventions targeted to improve their functioning can be successful. This course will briefly review PICS, describe evidence-based rehabilitation strategies for the problems associated with PICS, and provide strategies for engaging in an interprofessional team approach to manage a patient with PICS. Those providing posthospitalization services, such as nursing, rehabilitation, social work, nutrition, and primary care, will learn strategies for fostering recovery from PICS.
