What is the problem? Every year about 2.5 million children are affected by critical illness and require admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). However, both children and their parents may encounter difficulties after critical illness. Children affected physically may have difficulties in breathing, eating, and drinking. Parents have reported feeling symptoms of stress such as nightmares and excessive worries after PICU discharge. Currently, the investigators do not know when and how the problems unfold and what harm does it cause. Without this information, healthcare professionals are not equipped to support these families after PICU discharge.
Research Plan? To understand how critical illness could affect the physical, emotional, and social experiences of children age 1 month to 18 years of age and their parents in the first 6 months after a PICU admission.
144 children and their parents will be followed from the time of PICU admission to 6 months after discharge. Children and their parents will complete surveys to measure physical, social, emotional and function outcomes. A total of 12 families will be interviewed at 1 and 3 months after PICU discharge. Using the data provided to map out any trend or changes in this information over time.
Why is this study important? To better understand the experience and health consequences of children and their parents in the first six months after PICU admission. This information would help to identify potential areas to improve the negative consequence of children and their families after a severe illness. Results will be shared to the PICU survivors and their families, national organizations, international pediatric intensive care community to improve the experiences and health outcomes following a PICU admission.
