@atscommunity 📊 Research Summary: Remote, individualized rehabilitation did not significantly improve quality of life at 8 weeks for ICU survivors but enhanced physical function, fatigue, and anxiety in selected patients. #CriticalIllness #ATS2026 @atscommunity ja.ma/495LwrM

iRehab was presented today at @ATSCritCare Conference and published in @JAMA_current The video from CCR Down Under 2025 is now available along with our trial summary and critique criticalcarereviews.com Does the paper's conclusion do the trial justice?

💬 Editorial: Remote rehabilitation for ICU survivors improved quality of life & physical function for highly adherent participants, but many declined participation. Integration of flexible, accessible recovery options is needed for #CriticalIllness. #ATS2026 @atscommunity ja.ma/4eTLRS7

🧵 Among survivors of #CriticalIllness requiring mechanical ventilation, remote rehabilitation yielded improvements in physical function, fatigue, and anxiety, though health-related quality of life benefits were not detected at 8 weeks. #ATS2026 @atscommunity ja.ma/4ui1Azn

Amazing opportunity to present @iRehabTrial results @atscommunity with simultaneous publication in @JAMA_current
