Unmet Needs in PICS: Are We Measuring What Matters?
An ESICM Talk powered by the NEXT Committee
What truly matters in recovery after critical illness? In this episode, we explore the unmet needs in Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) and question whether current approaches truly capture the outcomes that matter most to patients and families.
Joining the discussion are a former ICU survivor and his wife, who share their personal journey through recovery and the long-term challenges faced after intensive care. Together with expert perspectives, this conversation explores the challenges of measuring physical, cognitive, and psychological recovery after ICU, the gaps that remain in long-term follow-up, and how intensive care teams can move toward more patient-centred outcomes and meaningful recovery.
