Nutritional status of patients with COVID-19 1-y post-ICU stay: A prospective observational study.

Objectives: Patients discharged from the intensive care unit (ICU) often experience physical complaints and poor nutritional intake, which negatively affect their nutritional status (NS). The aim of this study was to describe the NS of patients with COVID-19 1-y post-ICU stay.

Methods: This was an observational study of adult patients with COVID-19 1-y post-ICU stay.

Cognitive and psychological recovery patterns across different care pathways 12 months after hospitalization for COVID-19: A multicenter cohort study (CO-FLOW).

Background: The comparison of recovery patterns for different care pathways following COVID-19 is necessary for optimizing rehabilitation strategies.

Objectives: To evaluate cognitive and psychological outcomes across different care pathways up to 12 months after hospitalization for COVID-19.

Methods: CO-FLOW is an ongoing multicenter prospective cohort study with assessments at 3, 6, and 12 months after hospitalization for COVID-19.

A secondary analysis of data from the OPTICARE randomized controlled trial investigating the effects of extended cardiac rehabilitation on functional capacity, fatigue, and participation in society.

Objective: In this secondary analysis of data from the OPTICARE trial, we compared the effects of two behavioral interventions integrated into cardiac rehabilitation to standard rehabilitation with regard to functional capacity, fatigue, and participation in society.

Design: This is a randomized controlled trial.

Setting: This study was conducted in a cardiac rehabilitation setting.

A behavioral intervention promoting physical activity in people with subacute spinal cord injury: secondary effects on health, social participation and quality of life.

Objective: To assess, for people with subacute spinal cord injury, if rehabilitation that is reinforced with the addition of a behavioral intervention to promote physical activity leads to a better health, participation and quality of life.

Design: Randomized controlled trial.

Setting: Rehabilitation centers.

A behavioural intervention increases physical activity in people with subacute spinal cord injury: a randomised trial.

Questions: For people with subacute spinal cord injury, does rehabilitation that is reinforced with the addition of a behavioural intervention to promote physical activity lead to a more active lifestyle than rehabilitation alone?

Design: Randomised, controlled trial with concealed allocation, intention-to-treat analysis, and blinded assessors.

Participants: Forty-five adults with subacute spinal cord injury who were undergoing inpatient rehabilitation and were dependent on a manual wheelchair. The spinal cord injuries were characterised as: tetraplegia 33%; motor complete 62%; mean time since injury 150 days (SD 74).

Validation of an activity monitor for children who are partly or completely wheelchair-dependent.

Background: Children who are wheelchair-dependent are at risk for developing unfavorable physical behavior; therefore, assessment, monitoring and efforts to improve physical behavior should start early in life. VitaMove is an accelerometer-based activity monitor and can be used to detect and distinguish different categories of physical behavior, including activities performed in a wheelchair and activities using the legs. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of the VitaMove activity monitor to quantify physical behavior in children who are partly or completely wheelchair-dependent.
