Summary

This study looks at why some patients who survive intensive care do not attend their follow-up appointments. Researchers will review medical records of 2,500 adults invited to a post-ICU clinic between 2021 and 2025. The goal is to find patterns and reasons for missed appointments so that hospitals can improve attendance and better support recovery.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to: If successful, this could help hospitals better support ICU survivors by identifying who is most likely to miss follow-up care and why.
What could go wrong: This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to direct changes in care, and results may not apply to all hospitals or patients.
