Objectives: To explore associations between the physical, cognitive, and mental post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) health domains with changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) following ICU admission.
Design: A longitudinal prospective multicenter cohort study.
Setting/patients: Patients ( n = 4092) from seven Dutch ICUs.
Rationale: Despite functional impairments, ICU survivors can perceive their quality of life as acceptable.
Objectives: To investigate discrepancies between calculated health, based on self-reported physical, mental and cognitive functioning, and perceived health one year after ICU admission.
Methods: Data from an ongoing prospective multicenter cohort study, MONITOR-IC, were used.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the effectiveness and safety of risankizumab for treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, focusing on racial and ethnic disparities in diagnosis and representation in clinical trials.
- A total of 897 patients participated, with significant reductions in psoriasis severity and improvements in quality of life reported, particularly among Black or African American and Hispanic or Latino patients.
- Results suggest that risankizumab shows similar efficacy across different racial and ethnic groups without any new safety concerns arising during the treatment.
Background: With survival rates of critical illness increasing, quality of life measures are becoming an important outcome of ICU treatment. Therefore, to study the impact of critical illness on quality of life, we explored quality of life before and 1 year after ICU admission in different subgroups of ICU survivors.
Methods: Data from an ongoing prospective multicenter cohort study, the MONITOR-IC, were used.
