Our aim was to investigate PICS in adult patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).<h4>Methods</h4>In this prospective observational cohort study, we assessed risks for PICS at 3 and 12-month follow-up within the following domains: a) physical impairment (EuroQol [EQ-5D-3L]), b) cognitive functioning (Cerebral Performance Category [CPC] score >1, modified Rankin Scale [mRS] >2) and c) psychological burden (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS], Impact of Event Scale-Revised [IES-R]).<h4>Results</h4>At 3 months, 69/139 patients (50%) met the definition of PICS including 37% in the pPloS onePost-intensive care syndrome in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients: A prospective observational cohort study.PMC95656848472/HEG-DSV10531C_18242210001C_192850/1Gross SEmsden CGaab JBeck KBohren CMarsch SLoretz NTisljar KHunziker SMueller JAmacher SAThommen ESchaefert RVincent AWidmer MBecker CSutter RfalsePost-intensive care syndrome in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients: A prospective observational cohort study.<h4>Introduction</h4>Intensive care unit patients are at risk for post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), which includes psychological, physical and/or cognitive sequelae after their hospital stay.
