NCT03413189 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Survival following a critical illness continues to improve with ongoing developments in medical management, however evidence shows that this patient group is at a high risk of suffering long term disability. The objectives are to determine if there is a link between the amount of exercise performed in intensive care on the presence of delirium, long term cognition and disability whilst ensuring that patient reported outcomes correlate with actual measured results, and to obtain information on recovery from patients and/or relatives to determine themes.

Conditions

  • Critical Illness

Interventions

OTHER

Review of medical records

Medical records of patients will be reviewed to establish the median and highest level of functional achieved in Intensive Care (intensity) and the percentage of exercise sessions performed (frequency)

OTHER

Assessment of physical and cognitive function

This will be performed in person through the Function Independence Measure (FIM), grip strength, functional reach, 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Blind).

OTHER

Interview of patients, carers and/or family members

Questions will be asked to participants regarding their recovery from Intensive Care to establish themes
