After the 2017 fire, I visited a local 6th grade class to talk about how important it is to remember self-care in stressful times of crisis. I taught them my SHINES-MG mnemonic for self-care. I also showed them some “ewww grody” doctor-stuff that sparked interest!

How do you apply complex, best-practice interventions within a complex system? Thinking a lot about this when rolling out #AtoF in a hospital @SCCM#SCCM2024#ICULiberation
I think patient QOL metrics are important. Not sure 180 survival is it. I imagine too many confounding variables by then

Tipping et al. looked at QOL metrics in meta-analysis showing improved ability to walk out of ICU, incr muscle strength, QOL
Thanks to everyone who participated in our #iculiberation JC this weekend on the #TEAMS trial. To conclude with the money question:
In contradiction to prior trials, why do you think this trial failed to show an effect from early #ICU mobilization on the primary outcome?
It’s hard to imagine a mean dif of 12m/d for ? Numb of days would change survival at 180 days. But it would be interesting to look at a regression analysis of those who did not survive and determine what their group was as well as their baseline conditions/apache
Q3 of #iculiberation JC on the #TEAMS trial:
The mean difference in activity between groups was 12 minutes of active mobilization per day. Would you expect this difference to significantly impact outcomes?
Very low percentage of “adverse effects” that don’t reach significance but something to consider when selecting patients to include in early mobility. Also important to allow patients to equilibrate when mobilizing @HeidiEngel4@critconcepts@SCCM
