Abstract
There is great bodily and cognitive injury occurring to patients cared for in the ICU, much of which is preventable. ICU Survivors live with the post-intensive care syndrome or PICS, and it alters their lives in dramatic ways. I will review the data on PICS, discuss delirium and acquired-dementia, and evidence-based ways to improve patient safety and recovery.
