I’ve learned support still matters after discharge.
For ARDS survivors, the hard part often starts at home: questions, fear, and feeling alone.
Weekly support groups and ARDS Chat help people connect with others who get it.

After analysing 13 RCT with 3861 patients, open vs. restricted visiting times led to reduced delirium ocurrence (OR 0.48; 95% CI, 0.29-0.81) and less days on MV (MD -0.36 d; 95% CI, -0.46 to -0.26 d. No signigicant effects on LOS, infections, or mortality

In 94 dyads of sepsis-survivors and relatives in Japan, PICS-F after 12m remained stable around 40%, whereas PICS decreased in survivors from 82% to 62%.
Mental health disorders in survivors were associated with higher risks for PICS-F in relatives.
