Physical function measures in ICU survivors, where to now? A scoping review

Abstract

This scoping review contributes to the existing literature and development of standardised core outcome measure sets (COMS) for critical illness research by providing a comprehensive and systematic mapping of physical function measurement instruments utilised in longitudinal studies of critical illness survivors. By categorising these instruments according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework, the review offers a novel perspective on the current state of outcome measurement in this field.
