Addressing Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) Among Survivors of Acute Lung Injury

Abstract

APICS-01 seeks to address clinical and operational knowledge gap for acute lung injury (ALI) survivors by defining patterns of unmet needs, resource utilization, readmissions, and long-term functional outcomes among ICU survivors. We will employ a prospective, multi-center, observational study of outcomes and healthcare utilization among 200 ALI survivors which are directly relevant to a military population. In the third year of award, APICS-01 moved forward from the timely completion of enrollment to completion of follow-up, cleaning and locking of the dataset, and analysis of data. The first manuscript has been submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. The key findings are of an association between unmet medication needs and hospital readmission with a complex signal suggesting that patients with high risk of mortality may already receive extra attention to their medication needs. Secondary manuscripts, with their associated data cleaning and analysis are ongoing and will be thework of the fourth year (under no-cost extension).
