Intensive Care Unit Clinical Trial
— RETURN-IIIOfficial title:
Returning to Everyday Tasks Utilizing Rehabilitation Networks-III Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial (RETURN-III Pilot RCT)
Millions of patients survive care in medical and surgical Intensive Care Units (ICUs) every year, only to suffer from a new or accelerated dementia-like process, called post-ICU long-term cognitive impairment (ICU-LTCI). ICU-LTCI causes considerable problems with personal relationships, return to work, and everyday tasks, such as managing medicines and money. No treatment for these patients is currently available. Technology using computerized cognitive rehabilitation could improve ICU-LTCI by harnessing the healing potential of the brain (i.e., neuroplasticity). This intervention is scalable, portable, and economical. The investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of computerized cognitive rehabilitation in a randomized controlled trial of 160 VA patients with ICU-LTCI. The investigators hypothesize that this intervention could improve cognition, and brain structure shown by MRI. This research has high potential to influence rehabilitation strategies for Veteran and civilian ICU survivors.
