Rehabilitation After Intensive Care (REHAB)

February 29, 2024 updated by: Haukeland University Hospital

REHABILITATION AFTER INTENSIVE CARE What Effect Does Physiotherapy and Proteinrich Sip Drink Have on Physical Performance, Bodycomposition, Bodyweight and Quality of Life?

Patients with critical illness loose bodymass, mainly muscle. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate wheather tailored physical training and/or a sip drink (proteinrich) have effect on the six minutes walking test (6MWT), muscle strength, body weight, body composition and quality of life after intensive care. This is a single center randomised controled study comprising patients ≥45 years of age staying 5 days or more in the intensive care unit (ICU). The design is factorial. Inclusion takes place when the patient is leaving the ICU.
