Validation of a new clinical tool for post-intensive care syndrome.
The objective of this study was to validate the self-report version of the Healthy Aging Brain Care Monitor as a clinical tool for detecting post-intensive care syndrome. 142 patients who survived stays in intensive care units (ICUs) following a critical illness completed the self-report and standardized assessments of their cognition, their psychological symptoms, and physical functioning. Patients who had post-ICU syndrome were compared with a sample of primary care patients. Based on their findings, the researchers conclude that the self-report version is a valid clinical tool for the assessment of symptoms of post-ICU syndrome.
