Background
Intensive-care-unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) not only leads to difficulty weaning off mechanical ventilation, prolonged hospital stay and increased medical costs, but also reduces the patients quality of life after discharge and increases the 1-year mortality rate. Early identification and intervention can improve the prognosis of critically ill patients. However, much remains unknown about current clinical practice for ICU-AW assessment by ICU staff in China. Objectives To investigate current practices and barriers to ICU-AW assessment among ICU staff, and provide insights to improve ICU-AW assessment in ICUs in China. Methods Qualitative interviews were used to construct a survey questionnaire (testretest reliability 0.92, validity 0.96). This survey was subsequently completed by 3206 ICU staff from 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. Results In total, 3206 ICU staff responded to the survey (response rate 90%): 616 doctors (19%), 2371 nurses (74%), 129 respiratory therapists (4%), 51 physiotherapists (2%) and 39 dieticians (1%). Only 27% of the respondents had treated/cared for patients with ICU-AW. Reported methods for ICU-AW assessment were clinical experience (53%), ICU-AW assessment tools (12%), and physiotherapy consultation (35%). Forty-three percent of respondents felt that their ICU-AW-related knowledge did not meet clinical needs, only 10% had received ICU-AW-related training, and 19% proactively assessed whether their patients had ICU-AW. In terms of frequency of assessment, 42%, 16% and 11% of respondents considered that ICU-AW should be assessed daily, every 3 days, and on ICU admission and discharge, respectively. The Medical Research Council scale, electrophysiological assessment and the Manual Muscle Testing scale were considered to be optimal tools for ICU-AW diagnosis by 79%, 70%, and 73% of respondents, respectively. The main reported barriers to ICU-AW assessment were lack of knowledge, cognitive impairment among patients, and lack of ICU-AW assessment guidelines and procedures. Conclusion Current practices for ICU-AW assessment are non-specific, and the main barriers include lack of skills and knowledge. |
