TL;DR: The structured nurse-led follow-up did not improve patients' measured outcomes of psychological recovery after intensive care, and emphasis needs to be placed on disturbing memories of the intensive care stay and psychological reactions when constructing intensive care nurse- led follow- up.

TL;DR: A structured 3-month nurse-led follow-up of patients after discharge from intensive care did not improve patients' health status compared with usual care and a mixed effect model tested differences between the groups over time.

TL;DR: The intensive twice-daily mobilisation group neither started upright mobilisation early nor yielded superior short- or long-term outcomes compared to the daily mobilisationgroup, which showed poor physical health-related quality of life and exercise capacity one year after ICU discharge.

TL;DR: This work examined potential predictors for poor long‐term physical recovery in ICU survivors and identified five potential factors that influence physical recovery after an intensive care unit (ICU) stay.

TL;DR: Intensive care nurses recognise patients' risk of developing pressure injuries, as well as their continuous need of personal hygiene because of leakage of body fluids, but felt insecure and in need of expert help in pressure injury wound care.
