Intensive Care Unit Cognitive Disorders

The functional independence measure (FIM) is an outcome measure of the severity of physical and cognitive disability for an inpatient rehabilitation setting. The severity of disability changes during rehabilitation treatment, making changes in the FIM scale an indicator of treatment benefits and its results. So far there is no evidence for the functional profile of patients followed by physiotherapists during their critically ill department stay.
