Summary

This study follows 404 children who spent time in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and their families, including healthy siblings. Researchers want to understand the long-term physical, thinking, and emotional challenges they may face. By tracking these outcomes, the goal is to find ways to better support recovery for everyone involved.
