Summary

This study tests whether a telehealth recovery clinic can help adults aged 45 and older who survived a stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) recover their thinking skills and ability to perform daily tasks. Participants will have a video visit with a team that includes a doctor, a mental health expert, and a case manager. The goal is to see if this approach improves cognitive function and independence compared to usual care.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Telemedicine ICU Recovery Clinic Visit
What this could lead to
If successful, this telehealth approach could improve cognitive and physical recovery for ICU survivors, reducing long-term disability.
What could go wrong
This is a single-site study with 202 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so benefits may be modest.
