Muscle Function After Intensive Care

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Final objective of critical care is no longer only survival. The role of medical and paramedical teams should also be to restore functional capacities, autonomy and quality of life. What has been call "intensive care unit - acquired weakness" (ICU-AW) is associated to acute and long term increased mortality, prolonged ICU and hospital stay, prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation, altered quality of life in survivors and increased health-related costs. In order to target efficient secondary prevention and early rehabilitation, prompt identification of muscle weakness is crucial. Several methods, aiming to assess muscle mass, muscle strength or physical function, are described. Manual muscle testing using the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale is still the most commonly utilized tool to diagnose ICU-AW (MRC <48/60). Dynamometry is an objective alternative and one of the most accurate clinimetric tool to assess muscle strength. Literature is overflowing with insufficiently standardized dynamometry data. Using the investigator's published standardized protocol of quadriceps strength (QS) assessment, this observational study aim to describe physical performances of CC patients and thus to define the weakest ones, by comparing them to surgical and healthy subjects.
