Long-term recovery of sensorimotor functions and prediction of participation in survivors of critical illness: a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Survivors of critical illness frequently face physical, cognitive and psychological impairments after intensive care. Sensorimotor impairments potentially have a negative impact on participation. However, comprehensive understanding of sensorimotor recovery and participation in survivors of critical illness is limited. Therefore, the aims of this study were to quantify long-term sensorimotor recovery in survivors of critical illness, to examine participation in daily life 1.5 years after illness onset, and to assess the predictive capacity of sensorimotor assessments for future participation.

Methods

Survivors of critical illness who were mechanically ventilated ≥ 5 days on the ICU and who were admitted with weakness to neurorehabilitation were included in this si
