Overview

Observational analysis identified significant post-intensive care syndrome symptoms in children, suggesting robust neurocognitive evaluations are needed for PICU patients.

Key Points

Seventy-six percent of children evaluated by the neuropsychology team exhibited various post-discharge morbidities.
The most prevalent complications included sleep disturbances (63%), developmental concerns (60%), and coping difficulties (56%).
Neurocognitive follow-up appears crucial, with 84% of children receiving interventions after evaluations focused on their functional and psychosocial needs.
Medical recommendations were issued for 73.8% of children, demonstrating a need for rehabilitative support following PICU discharge.
