First seen Feb 03, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study follows older adults who were in the ICU for serious illness to see how much they moved during their hospital stay and how that relates to their ability to do daily activities, walk, and think clearly 3 and 12 months later. Researchers are observing 312 patients to identify risk factors for long-term disability. The goal is to understand, not to test a new treatment.
