MONITOR-IC Post ICU Care Study
- Conditions
- Post ICU Syndrome
- Interventions
- Other: structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care
- Registration Number
- NCT05066984
- Lead Sponsor
- Radboud University Medical Center
- Brief Summary
* OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care versus usual care on physical and psychological functioning, and quality of life (QoL) of ICU survivors one and two years post-ICU.
* RESEARCH QUESTION What is the clinical- and cost effectiveness of structured, personalized post-ICU care versus usual care on physical and psychological functioning, and QoL of ICU survivors?
* HYPOTHESIS Structured, multidisciplinary, and personalized post-ICU care results in improved QoL of ICU survivors and is more cost effective compared to usual care.

* RESEARCH QUESTION What is the clinical- and cost effectiveness of structured, personalized post-ICU care versus usual care on physical and psychological functioning, and QoL of ICU survivors?
* HYPOTHESIS Structured, multidisciplinary, and personalized post-ICU care results in improved QoL of ICU survivors and is more cost effective compared to usual care.
* STUDY POPULATION Adult patients at high risk of critical illness-associated morbidity post-ICU.
* INTERVENTION Structured, personalized and multidisciplinary post-ICU care tailored to patients' health problems initiated by ICU clinicians and coordinated by GPs.
* USUAL CARE / COMPARISON No or unstructured post-ICU care.
* OUTCOMES Primary: QoL and mental functioning 1-year post-ICU. Secondary: physical and cognitive functioning 1- and 2-year post-ICU, cost effectiveness and cost utility.
* FOLLOW-UP TIME One and two years post-ICU.
* STUDY DESIGN Stepped wedge cluster RCT in 5 hospitals.
* SAMPLE SIZE \& DATA ANALYSIS 5 ICUs (11 patients/ICU/month, in total 770 intervention patients, and 1480 (active and historical) controls gives power of 87% to detect effect of 0.074 in EQ-5D (ICC 0.035; SD 0.26). Data will be analysed according to intention to treat principles, also per-protocol analyses will be performed.
* COST-EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSIS / BUDGET IMPACT ANALYSIS Comparison of 'cost per QALY' gained between patients in the intervention and control group. Decision analytical modelling will be used to calculate the average savings per patient; extrapolated to population level using a budget-holders perspective.

Group Intervention Description structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Individual's perception of their position in life assessed by the EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ5D) . 1 year post-ICU Quality of life (QoL) assessed by the EQ5D at 1-year post-ICU.
Mental impairments assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) 1 year post-ICU Anxiety and depression (assessed by the HADS) at 1-year post-ICU.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Physical functioning measured by fatigue assessed by the Checklist Individual Strength (CIS). 1- and 2-year post-ICU Fatigue (CIS) Patients' level of frailty and vulnerability will be assed using the Clinical Frailty Score (CFS).
Physical functioning measured by new physical complaints assessed by the number of new physical complaints. 1- and 2-year post-ICU New physical complaints Patients' level of frailty and vulnerability will be assed using the Clinical Frailty Score (CFS).
Post traumatic stress disorder 1- and 2-year post-ICU assessed by the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R). 1- and 2-year post-ICU Post traumatic stress disorder (IES-R)
Cost effectiveness measured by cost per Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALY) 1- and 2-year post-ICU A cost-effectiveness analysis will be carried out to evaluate whether the costs of structured, multidisciplinary and personalized post-ICU care weigh up to the benefits compared to usual care.
Physical functioning measured by frailty assessed by the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). 1- and 2-year post-ICU Frailty (CFS) Patients' level of frailty and vulnerability will be assed using the Clinical Frailty Score (CFS).
Cognitive functioning 1- and 2-year post-ICU assessed by the 14-item Cognitive Failure Questionnaire (CFQ14). 1- and 2-year post-ICU Cognitive functioning (CFQ14)
Social economic consequences measured by the novel question set designed by Griffiths et al. 1- and 2-year post-ICU Social consequences and return to work will be measured using the novel question set designed by Griffiths et al to determine changes in family circumstances, socioeconomic stability and care requirements.
