Pulmonary function and health-related quality of life in a sample of long-term survivors of the acute respiratory distress syndrome

Abstract: Long-term survivors of ARDS have a significant reduction in HRQL and the presence of multiple PF impairments is associated with maximal decrements in HRQL.

“…30 At 5 y after discharge from ICU, ARDS survivors have impairment in all SF-36 health dimensions, with reductions of 25% in physical function and physical role function, 17.5% in general health, and a smaller but statistically significant decrease in psychosocial functioning compared with the general population. 13 Similarly, at 5 y, Herridge et al 38 reported that even relatively young subjects with few coexisting illnesses who survived ARDS had a persistently reduced physical HRQOL in terms of SF-36 score, although those who were younger than 52 y showed a significant improvement in the physical component score from discharge to 5 y, when compared with subjects older than 52 y.…”

“…[43][44][45] However, we know that there is a correlation between pulmonary dysfunction and long-term HRQOL, as indicated in several reports. 13,15,16,23 The severity of the initial acute lung injury/ARDS and the rapidity of its resolution seem to correlate significantly with long-term (1-y) physical function, although the inability to exercise in terms of muscle wasting and weakness has a multifactorial etiology and can be due to extrapulmonary disease. 21 Similarly, ARDS subjects treated with ECMO suffered a loss of HRQOL because of pulmonary sequelae at 1 y after ECMO.…”

“…1 Some of these patients experience a pro-longed stay in ICU (Ͼ7 d) and long and difficult time of mechanical ventilation (Ͼ20 d). 1 These patients have limited clinical outcomes 2 and may suffer depression or anxiety, [3][4][5] with decreased health-related quality of life (HRQOL) 6,7 in the months following intensive care. Indeed, patients continue to require health-care services, but few of them are transferred to rehabilitation facilities.…”
