Abstract
Post intensive care syndrome (PICS) is a typical complication of critically ill patients during or after their stay in intensive care unit (ICU), characterized by a high incidence and impairment rate. It significantly impacts the quality of life of patients and their families, as well as consumes a substantial amount of medical resources. Therefore, early intervention and assessment of PICS is crucial. This paper aims to provide clinical professionals with a reference base by focusing on the clinical symptoms, diagnostic assessment, and preventative measures of PICS.
