Abstract
The study of morbidity in survivors of critical illness is complex. The complexity resides in the multifactorial nature of morbidity, the individuality of host response to a similar insult, and the reality that morbidity is dynamic and therefore changes over time. The challenge in studying and improving morbidity is to identify homogeneous populations of survivors of critical illness, characterize in detail the nature of their morbidity, and understand those factors that predict and modify that disability. To better characterize this dysfunction, we need to devise a method of measuring morbidity that is objective, comprehensive, quantitative, and func- tionally relevant, and to establish the post-intensive care unit (ICU) time interval in which disability stabilizes. Once these predictors of disability have been identi- fied, an intervention, likely a multidisciplinary intervention, needs to be tested to determine if this morbidity can be ameliorated.
