Today 9:45 a.m. room 33 @SCCM #ccc48

"Bringing Meaning & Life Back to Survivors of Critical Illness"

I'm looking forward to a great session with @ICU_Recovery + @JulieRoganCNS

Here are my slides to give you a sense of what the conversation may be about. Join us!

Mark Mikkelsen and I have been deeply influenced by Creditor's classic article

These graphics hopefully forthcoming from Oxford Textbook of Medicine edited by @icuresearch

Recovery-focus means thinking about preventing long-term harm, but also realizing critical illness is bad and some damage will occur given the limitations of our science and art

We need to help patients + families rehab but also ADAPT

@SCCM #ccc48

How to do this? I'll offer some conventional thoughts and some more egg-y ones

some things you only get if you come to the live show, e.g. great new work by my colleague @antoinettebcoe

@SCCM #ccc48

Several authors of the @GioraNetzer-editted #Families in the ICU book will be in the room this morning

@SCCM #ccc48

How can we prevent potentially preventable readmissions? How can we better empower patients to take control of their own recovery?

I'm indebted to my colleagues @HalliePrescott @Jakob_McSparron @Hawleysaraht for pushing my thinking here

@SCCM #ccc48

Dr Khanderwal's work from Seattle suggests the very high rates of financial stress -- much of which might be avertable with system redesign

mentored by @Terri_Hough

How to help #adaptation?

@RendonJim's superb book + conversation w @bnallamo @sanjaysaint in work on cardiac arrest taught me about #PostTraumaticGrowth

@SCCM #ccc48

I would welcome your thoughts on what #RecoveryFocused critical care might look like, and how @SCCM @SCCMPresident's #THRIVE could help.

I hope to see you soon
