    Click to Return to Search Page VIEW SELECTED LIBRARY MEDIA Name of Media: Exercise rehabilitation following intensive care unit discharge for recovery from critical illness Author(s): Connolly B, Salisbury L, O'Neill B, Geneen LJ, Douiri A, Grocott MPW, Hart N, Walsh TS, Blackwood B. Publisher or Source: Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews Type of Media: Medical Journal Media Originally for: Critical Care Physicians Country of Origin: United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (the) Primary Focus of Media: Pre-Use of PICS Designation COVID-19 Related: No Description: Skeletal muscle wasting and weakness are significant complications of critical illness, associated with degree of illness severity and periods of reduced mobility during mechanical ventilation. They contribute to the profound physical and functional deficits observed in survivors. These impairments may persist for many years following discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU) and can markedly influence health‐related quality of life. Rehabilitation is a key strategy in the recovery of patients after critical illness. Exercise‐based interventions are aimed at targeting this muscle wasting and weakness. Physical rehabilitation delivered during ICU admission has been systematically evaluated and shown to be beneficial. However, its effectiveness when initiated after ICU discharge has yet to be established.
