🔍 The IMPROVE trial, a 12-week cognitive and physical training intervention for ICU delirium survivors, did not result in improved cognitive, physical, mental health, or quality of life measures.

Muscle mass is the bank account of independence.

You either build it now or borrow against your future.

Building muscle early beats managing decline later.

Congrats to @khome and @SueBerney on the publication of the #CYCLE trial in @NEJMEvidence

We have been thrilled @Austin_Health to collaborate on this trial, the largest ever trial of cycling in ICU

#icurehab

[NEJM Evidence @NEJMEvidence]

In an RCT, Kho et al studied in-bed cycle ergometry to mitigate post-ICU weakness by comparing outcomes in ICU patients who were undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation and found that 30 minutes of cycling had no benefit on physical function when added to usual PT. 1/2

[Michelle Kho, PT, PhD @khome]

What an amazing week at #CCR24 It was an honour to present our CYCLE trial results and engage in great conversations with colleagues from around the world. #ICURehab

[Thomas Rollinson @tomrollinsonPT]

I am really thrilled to share this publication, Co-designing resources for rehabilitation via telehealth for people with moderate to severe physical disability post stroke. https://t.co/fhWS5NvgnG

[The BMJ @bmj_latest]

#Exercise is an effective treatment for depression, with walking or jogging, yoga, and strength training more effective than other exercises, particularly when intense, finds this new study.

Includes a visual abstract summarising key findings

Rehabilitation for #ICU survivors is about body & mind. ‘Recovery’ doesn’t end at discharge: can last forever. Tell patient & family about #delirium. Warn them & tell them that they don’t have to be alone when that happens.
