Summary

Post-ICU long term sequelae- defined as "post intensive care syndrome" (PICS) manifest with a wide spectrum of psychological and cognitive impairments, affecting over two-thirds of ICU survivors and leading to increased rehospitalization, health care costs, impaired quality of life (QoL), inability to return to work and burden for families.

The prevalence of post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSD), anxiety symptoms, and depression after ICU stay is high and has been demonstrated in up to 50% of post-ICU population.

Therefore, over the last years, an important effort has been made for the development of ICU aftercare and follow-up clinics with the aim to detect and to minimize post-ICU sequelae and improve outcomes. However, the utility of these follow-up programs and their effect on outcome has not been completely demonstrated.
