Understanding Recovery Problems After Intensive Care
This study looks at patients who spent at least 2 days in the ICU (intensive care unit) to understand the physical, mental, and emotional challenges they face during recovery. Researchers will ask you questions about your health and function to identify what kind of support might help you feel better.
