First seen Nov 06, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study follows 150 older adults (age 40+) who survived a stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) for sepsis or lung injury. Researchers will measure muscle strength and physical function at hospital discharge and again at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. A small group will also have muscle biopsies to see how muscle cells change over time. The goal is to understand the recovery process, not to test a treatment.
