NEW EVIDENCE Pre-post pilot study by Lauren Ferrante & Yale School of Medicine team shows Occupational therapy (within a 3-part bundle) has added value over PT/mobility for reducing delirium in older adults in ICU atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.151… See thread below #ICUrehab AOTA Kelly OT

1/n #olderadults who are hospitalized for  #Covid_19 are at ⬆️risk for delirium. In our study in JAMA Network Open , we evaluated the association between In-hospital #delirium ➡️#FunctionalImpairment & #CognitiveImpairment over 6 months after hospitalization.

🔮 Frail #ICU pt exhibits ⬆️ vulnerability to stress & ⬇️ potential for recovery. Evaluating Clinical Frailty Scale advisable to support decision-making &, upon survival, allocation of geriatrics evaluations 🔓rdcu.be/dMLgT 🔮On FORECAST study 🔓 rdcu.be/dIXEs

2️⃣ J Stevenson, Lauren Ferrante, et al’s pilot study of in-hospital use of a #PICS risk prediction tool to older adult ICU survivors… showing: ⭐️ feasibility ⭐️ good calibration for the tool chestcc.org/article/S2949-… Margaret Pisani CHEST® Journal CHEST

Can we PREDICT the development of post-ICU functional impairment? In #journal_ChestCritCare led by Lauren Ferrante, a feasibility study demonstrating 💠>90% completion rate of the risk prediction tool by participants 💠 Improved model discrimination with in-hospital factors
