简要总结
Recovery for intensive care survivors is limited by ongoing problems with walking, strength, fatigue, mental distress and cognitive morbidity known as 'Post Intensive Care Syndrome'. There has been increasing interest in ways that clinicians can support patients in their post ICU recovery.
The investigators are undertaking a co design approach to informing the design of a recovery pathway for patients who have been admitted to the intensive care to support them in their return to home, family and working responsibilities.
详细描述
This project will aim to involve ~ 20 past ICU patient/family members and ~20 health professionals to participate in a co-design approach to examine the recovery needs and resources that are required to support patients after leaving hospital. Using an experience based co design methodology three 2-hour workshops will be run with the first workshop involving patients/family members, the second involving healthcare professionals to separately gain thoughts and perspectives, and then the final workshop which will be combined to identify and problem solve priority resources and solutions.
