Study summary

Survivors of critical illness may present with a set of physical, emotional and cognitive sequelae, known as Post Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS). These alterations can become chronic over time and significantly affect patients' quality of life. Therefore, follow-up and monitoring of critically ill patients after ICU discharge, for example through telemedicine, could be essential for the prevention, early detection and management of PICS.

Our main objective is to evaluate the suitability and user experience of a telemedicine platform from the perspective of critically ill patients. This study proposes the participation of ICU survivors in the design and improvement of a telemedicine platform for PICS follow-up through a qualitative approach. Participants will test the platform in person three months after discharge from the ICU and then undergo a semi-structured interview to assess their experience. The findings derived from this study may contribute to improve both the content and the format of the platform, optimizing resources and facilitating the management of post-ICU sequelae, which will have a positive impact on the patient's recovery process.
