Summary
Brief summary
Recovery for intensive care survivors is limited by ongoing problems with walking, strength,
fatigue, mental distress and cognitive morbidity known as 'Post Intensive Care Syndrome'.
There has been increasing interest in ways that clinicians can support patients in their post
ICU recovery.

The investigators are undertaking a co design approach to informing the design of a recovery
pathway for patients who have been admitted to the intensive care to support them in their
return to home, family and working responsibilities.
