Trajectories of Short-Term Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms in Patients with Post-Intensive Care Syndrome: A Longitudinal Observational Study
Our study showed that short-term PTSD symptoms in PICS patients manifested as moderate chronic, recovery, and resilience trajectories. Additionally, our results showed that PTSD screening should be conducted for critically ill patients, especially younger, female, or long-term ICU patients, immediately after their discharge from the ICU.
