Integrated Recovery Program for Critical Illness

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: ICU Survivors

In brief

This study aims to investigate the effects of the Integrated Critical Illness Aftercare and Recovery Enhancement (I-CARE) program on reducing healthcare burden and improving functional outcomes in ICU survivors. The I-CARE program combines remote support via LINE Bot Care with in-person post-ICU recovery clinic visits. The study will assess whether this integrated care model reduces unplanned hospital readmissions and emergency department visits within six months after discharge, and improves physical and cognitive outcomes at 3 and 6 months post-discharge. Additionally, the study will evaluate the impact of a built-in patient-nurse interaction feature on ICU nurses' burnout and intention to leave, measured every six months over a two-year period.
