Prevalence and Risk Factor of Post-intensive Care Syndrome in Neuro-ICU

Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) is the set of disabling symptoms that can appear or worsen following a stay in intensive care. These symptoms are physical, cognitive, or psychiatric. The onset and persistence of these symptoms have a major impact on patients' quality of life, their autonomy, and their social and professional reintegration. patients with neurological diseases are frequently excluded from studies due to difficulties for the non-specialist resuscitator to perform the neurological examination and assess whether the symptoms of RPS are secondary to brain damage or complications inherent in resuscitation.The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of PICS in patients with neurological diseases, at ICU discharge and 3 months after, and to identify the risk factors for developing it.
