It also explores the role of interdisciplinary collaboration in optimizing patient outcomes. Conclusions: PICS has a profound impact on the long-term outcomes and quality of life of ICU survivors. The prevalence of PICS highlights its significance as a healthcare issue, necessitating comprehensive care strategies. Early recognition, comprehensive care, and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential in preventing and managing PICS. By addressing the physical, cognitive, and psychological aspects of PICS, healthcare professionals can improve patient outcomes and enhance the overall well-being of ICU survivors.
