Outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 survivors and caregivers: a case study-centred narrative review

Abstract: Purpose Critical illness is a transformative experience for both patients and their family members. For COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), survival may be the start of a long road to recovery. Our knowledge of the post-ICU long-term sequelae of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) may inform our understanding and management of the long-term effects of COVID-19.

“…ICUAW and diaphragmatic dysfunction increase LOS, mechanical ventilation, weaning failure, care costs, morbidity, and in-hospital mortality [ 16 ]. Risk factors associated with ICUAW are predominant in every critical COVID-19 patient: immobility and the use of neuromuscular blockers and corticosteroids [ 28 ].…”

“…Knowledge of previous functional status will help clinicians identify risk factors for developing PIC, such as sarcopenia, frailty, and level of independence in daily life activities [ 37 ]. Frailty and functional deterioration in critically ill COVID-19 patients allow clinicians to estimate their risk of developing new infections, organ failure, and poor long-term outcomes [ 28 ].…”
