Summary

The NUTRIREA-4 trial will test the hypothesis that an individually tailored rehabilitation program combining nutritional therapy, physiotherapy, and physical activity and started early in the ICU then continued uninterruptedly throughout the post-ICU stay and at home after hospital discharge improves the long-term outcomes of critical-illness survivors, compared to usual care.

From ICU admission to recovery at home, the trial patients will receive either usual care or the early extended rehabilitation program. Usual care will consist in nutritional support and physiotherapy according to usual local practice in each participating ICU. The early extended program will consist of nutritional therapy, physiotherapy, and physical activity according to a standardized protocol tailored to general- and muscle-health improvements achieved in each individual patient over time.

Conditions

  • Mechanical Ventilation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Rehabilitation group

In the rehabilitation group, patients will follow an individualized rehabilitation program started early in the ICU and continued in the post-ICU ward then at home for 12 weeks, combining goal-directed nutrition and physical activity, tailored to gains made over time by each patient, with the involvement of dieticians, physiotherapists, and adapted-physical-activity instructors.

PROCEDURE

Control group

In the control group, patients will receive usual care from day-0 to day-180.
