Abstract:
Plasma therapy is one of the major chapters in medicines. Convalescent plasma therapy, another term for plasma therapy involves the use of blood from a person who has recovered from a particular illness to help others who are suffering from the same disease. The plasma of this blood is likely to contain antibodies that can help other patients fight the same illness, especially if viruses or pathogens are compromising the immunity system. Plasma therapy speeds up the recovery and helps manage symptoms. Moreover, it is used in wound healing, face rejuvenation, and androgenetic alopecia. It can help patients suffering from Covid-19, which increased its demand since the Covid-19 outbreak.

Abstract:
A substantial number of patients report persisting symptoms after a COVID-19 infection: so-called post-COVID-19 syndrome. There is limited research on patients’ perspectives on post-COVID-19 symptoms and ways to recover. This qualitative study explored the illness perceptions and recovery strategies of patients who had been hospitalised for COVID-19. Differences between recovered and non-recovered patients were investigated. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were held with 24 participating patients (8 recovered and 16 non-recovered) 7 to 12 months after hospital discharge. Data were interpreted using reflexive thematic analysis. Four overarching themes were identified: (I) symptoms after hospital discharge; (II) impact of COVID-19 on daily life and self-identity; (III) uncertainty about COVID-19; and (IV) dealing with COVID-19. Formerly hospitalised post-COVID-19 patients seem to have difficulties with making sense of their illness and gaining control over their recovery. The majority of non-recovered participants continue to suffer mostly from weakness or fatigue, dyspnoea and cognitive dysfunction. No notable differences in illness beliefs were observed between recovered and non-recovered participants

Recovery from mental illness is a fairly straightforward concept to members of the general public: “am I going to recover”, “what are the chances of recovery”, or “is our son/daughter ever likely to recover”? These are the sorts of questions that doctors and psychiatrists get asked every day.

Abstract:
Summary Little has been reported on prognostic indicators in children with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). We used interviews with children and parents, a mean of 45.5 months after illness onset, to follow up 25 cases of CFS referred to tertiary paediatric psychiatric clinics. At its worst, the illness had been markedly handicapping (prolonged bed-rest and school absence in two-thirds); mean time out of school was one academic year. Two-thirds, however, had recovered and resumed normal activities—mean duration of illness to recovery/assessment 38 months—and none had developed other medical conditions. Recovery was associated with specific physical triggers to the illness, with start of illness in the autumn school term and with higher socioeconomic status. Severe fatigue states in children can cause serious and longlasting handicap but most children recover.

Abstract:
Epidemiological and sociological research on recovery from mental disorder is based on three rarely tested medical model assumptions: (1) recovery without treatment is the result of less severe illness, (2) treatment predicts recovery, and (3) recovery and well–being do not depend on individuals’ treatment histories. I challenge these assumptions using National Comorbidity Survey-Replication data for individuals with any disorder occurring prior to the current year ( N = 2,305). Results indicated that (1) untreated remissions were fully explained by less serious prior illness, (2) treated individuals were less likely to recover due to more serious illness, and (3) people who had past–only treatment were more likely to recover than the never–treated, while those in recurring and recently initiated care were less likely to recover. Treatment histories predicted greater well–being only if recovery had been attained. Histories of care help to explain recovery rates and suggest new directions for treatment–seeking theory and research.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Data from the recalls of meat and poultry products from 2000 through 2012 due to Salmonella contamination were used to assess the factors associated with the recovery of the recalled product and to develop quantitative models to estimate the number of illnesses prevented by recalls. The percentage of product recovered following a recall action was not dependent on establishment size, recall expansions, complexity of the distribution chain, type of distribution, amount of time between the production and recall dates, or number of pounds of product recalled. However, illness-related recalls were associated with larger amounts of recalled product, smaller percentages of recalled product recovered, a greater number of days between the production date and recall date, and nationwide distribution than were recalls that were not illness related. In addition, the detection of recall-associated illnesses appeared to be enhanced in states with strong foodborne illness investigation systems. The number of Salmonella illnesses prevented by recalls was based on the number of illnesses occurring relative to the number of pounds consumed, which was then extrapolated to the number of pounds of recalled product recovered. A simulation using a program evaluation and review technique probability distribution with illness-related recalls from 2003 through 2012 estimated that there were 19,000 prevented Salmonella illnesses, after adjusting for underdiagnosis. Recalls not associated with illnesses from 2000 through 2012 prevented an estimated additional 8,300 Salmonella illnesses, after adjusting for underdiagnosis. Although further improvements to ensure accurate and complete reporting should be undertaken, our study demonstrates that recalls are an important tool for preventing additional Salmonella illnesses. Moreover, additional training resources dedicated to public health agencies for enhancing foodborne illness detection, investigations, and rapid response and reporting would further prevent illnesses.

Abstract:
The concept of ‘recovery’ as applied to severe mental illness has fostered a cultural change in attitudes to the long-term outcome of conditions such as schizophrenia. ‘Recovery’ has a specific meaning in this context. It refers to the possibility that even in the presence of a chronic psychiatric disorder there is hope for a life that has value. The affected individual can still make a contribution to society; he or she can expect to live independently and with dignity. The term implies that our traditional medical model of illness lacks the longer-term perspective on how patients might learn to cope with their condition.

Abstract:
Introduction Nursing students’ attitudes towards mental illness will affect their perception about caring patients with mental illness and their willingness to work in the field of mental health. Evidence supported that contact with recovery patients can change people’s perception of mental illness. Objectives The study aims to explore the undergraduate nursing students’ encountering experience with recovery patients as educators. Methods A qualitative study using purposive sampling was conducted with undergraduate nursing students in southern Taiwan. Content analysis was used to identify the students’ experience as encountering with the recovery patient as an educator. Results As recovery patients participated in class, sharing their recovery journey and learning with students to produce a recovery story, it provided recovery patients and students an equal and mutually beneficial partnership. Four main themes about undergraduate nursing students’ attitudes were identified as. (1)Changing the mindset to patients with mental illness — We are human beings. There’s not much difference between us. (2)Turning positive attitudes towards patients with mental illness — We can compose a better life together! (3)Closing the distance between students and patients with mental illness — I am willing to be close to you. (4)Reflecting and growing in self-understanding and values — I am recovered, too. Conclusions This study found that the strategy of recovery patients as educators can improve future nurses’ attitudes towards mental illness, help them deeply learn about patient’ recovery journey. It might beneficial to help students developing their competency in patient-centered care. Future study could examine the effect of the recovery patients as educators.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives To assess factors associated with failure to respond to treatment for moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) while enrolled in a supplementary feeding program (SFP) in Pujehun District, Sierra Leone. Methods This was a secondary analysis of a cluster-randomized trial. The main study examined the cost-effectiveness of four specialized nutritious foods (SNFs) for treating MAM in children 6–59 months. Each SNF (Corn Soy Blend Plus, Corn Soy Whey Blend, Super Cereal Plus with Amylase, and Ready to Use Supplementary Food) was provided to caregivers in 14-day isocaloric rations for 12 weeks or until reaching an outcome. Outcomes were: Recovery (mid-upper arm circumference [MUAC]≥12.5cm), Failure (11.5 > MUAC < 12.5 after 12 weeks of treatment), severe acute malnutrition [SAM] (MUAC ≤ 11.5), Default (3 consecutive missed visits), or Death. Beneficiary caregivers provided standard demographic information at enrollment. Height, weight, and MUAC were taken every 14 days during a clinical visit as was information on illness (incidence of diarrhea, fever, cough, and vomit). Multinomial logistic regression assessed demographic and illnesses’ influence on the relative risk of Failure or developing SAM compared to Recovery. Results Of enrolled children (N = 2682), 1675 (63%) recovered, 498 (19%) worsened to SAM, and 259 (10%) failed to respond. In the 2 weeks prior to enrollment, more children who recovered experienced fever (30%), cough (23%), diarrhea (9%), or vomit (7%) than children who did not recover. By exit, a larger % of children who developed SAM reported fever (30%), cough (27%), diarrhea (16%), or vomit (10%) in the 2 preceding weeks than children who failed or recovered. In both adjusted and unadjusted models, children who entered the program with higher MUACs or reported any illness in the 2 weeks preceding enrollment were at significantly lower risk of worsening to SAM or failing to recover. Children who were transferred from a SAM treatment program were at significantly greater risk of worsening to SAM and failing to respond as were children with any illness in the 2 weeks preceding exit. Conclusions Underlying infections or illness may explain why some children with MAM fail to recover. Illness at enrollment may signal a transitory condition remedied with treatment.

Abstract:
Background.The course of bipolar disorder progressively worsens in some patients. Although responses to pharmacotherapy appear to diminish with greater chronicity, less is known about whether patients' prior courses of illness are related to responses to psychotherapy.Method.Embedded in the Systematic Treatment Enhancement Program for Bipolar Disorder (STEP-BD) was a randomized controlled trial of psychotherapy for bipolar depression comparing the efficacy of intensive psychotherapy with collaborative care (a three-session psycho-educational intervention). We assessed whether the number of previous mood episodes, age of illness onset, and illness duration predicted or moderated the likelihood of recovery and time until recovery from a depressive episode in patients in the two treatments.Results.Independently of treatment condition, participants with one to nine prior depressive episodes were more likely to recover and had faster time to recovery than those with 20 or more prior depressive episodes. Participants with fewer than 20 prior manic episodes had faster time to recovery than those with 20 or more episodes. Longer illness duration predicted a longer time to recovery. Participants were more likely to recover in intensive psychotherapy than collaborative care if they had 10–20 prior episodes of depression [number needed to treat (NNT) = 2.0], but equally likely to respond to psychotherapy and collaborative care if they had one to nine (NNT = 32.0) or >20 (NNT = 9.0) depressive episodes.Conclusions.Number of previous mood episodes and illness duration are associated with the likelihood and speed of recovery among bipolar patients receiving psychosocial treatments for depression.

Abstract:
Background. Discourse on the possibility of recovery from serious mental illness has become increasingly dominant among mental health professionals. Mental health recovery has been conceptualized variously by researchers, practitioners, policy-makers, and persons with mental illness. Several systematic reviews have synthesized the experience of recovery from the perspective of persons with mental illness, and offer different models of recovery. This proposed overview aims to summarize the methodological characteristics of systematic reviews on mental health recovery and to synthesize models of recovery from the perspective of persons with mental illness. Design and analysis. The authors will use systematic review methods to identify and synthesize systematic reviews on the phenomenon of recovery in mental illness. A pre-specified search strategy will be used to search academic databases and libraries of the Campbell Collaboration, Cochrane Collaboration, and Joanna Briggs Institute for published and gray literature. Two authors will independently screen titles/abstracts and full texts. Authors will pilot the data extraction form before independently extracting data and appraising study quality. Reflexive thematic analysis, informed by a hermeneutic orientation towards the included texts, will be used to synthesize models of recovery presented in eligible studies. Discussion. This overview will synthesize systematic review evidence on consumer perspectives of mental health recovery. Findings could inform future research, clinical practice, and policy by elucidating similarities and differences in recovery models across demographic or diagnostic categories and identifying how environmental, interpersonal, and intrapersonal factors contribute to recovery.

Personal rehabilitation from severe mental illness (SMI) refers to the cycle of living independent and active lives in the community, where individuals with significant mental disorders can be satisfactory. The aim of the concept analysis to clarify what is meant by a personal recovery of SMI internationally by the attributes, antecedents, and consequences. This study using a technique the analysis method of Walker & Avant through 8 steps techniques. The attributes of personal recovery of SMI include connectedness, hope and optimism about future, identity, meaning in life, and empowerment. Antecedents of personal recovery of SMI is a stigma attached to a mental health diagnosis. The consequences of personal recovery of SMI are usual from SMI, self-restoration, and excellent Quality of life. Symptom reduction (e.g., clinical recovery) becomes an integral part of someone's recovery if the person is something they want to be because recovery is unique for everyone.

Abstract:
‘Recovery’ is usually taken as broadly equivalent to ‘getting back to normal’ or ‘cure’, and by these standards few people with severe mental illness recover. At the heart of the growing interest in recovery is a radical redefinition of what recovery means to those with severe mental health problems. Redefinition of recovery as a process of personal discovery, of how to live (and to live well) with enduring symptoms and vulnerabilities opens the possibility of recovery to all. The ‘recovery movement’ argues that this reconceptualisation is personally empowering, raising realistic hope for a better life alongside whatever remains of illness and vulnerability. This paper explores the background and defining features of the international recovery movement, its influence and impact on contemporary psychiatric practice, and steps towards developing recovery-based practice and services.

Abstract:
People with severe mental illness have complex disabilities affecting mental functions, daily activities, and social life, thus they need help from others in carrying out daily functional activities. Optimizing the recovery of severe mental illness requires a holistic approach and integration between mental health services and supportive communities so that sufferers can interact with others, have a positive self-concept, and improve their well-being. This study aims to describe a community-based model of recovery for people with severe mental illness. Several literature studies were obtained from 50 reference sources through Science Direct, Google Scholar, Proquest Health and Medical Complete, Proquest Nursing, and Allied Health Sources from 2009 to 2019. Results explain that the community provides an adequate support system in improving the care of people with severe mental illness. Support systems in the community involve social and physical aspects as well as the economic infrastructure through employment opportunities or financial support and a decent living. The interaction between community members and people with severe mental illness could be a positive thing in strengthening the motivation of people with severe mental illness to recover and be able to do their activities independently. The recovery process of severe mental illness requires strong motivation and commitment from the sufferer, the family, all society members, community mental health service team, and related policymakers. It can be concluded that people with severe mental illness need support from various parties in terms of future life planning, identifying strengths and weaknesses that they have, and recognizing multiple obstacles and support so that they recover and live independently.

Abstract:
AbstractThe concept of recovery entered the lexicon of the mental health services in the 1980s following the publication of a series of studies and personal narratives which demonstrated that the course of mental illness was not always one of inevitable deterioration and that people diagnosed with severe mental illness could reclaim or recover meaningful lives. For a long time, recovery was not thought possible by many family members, service providers and researchers. However globally, specific policy and clinical strategies are being developed to implement recovery principles although key questions remain. In fact, the possibility of recovery is still debated by some. In this paper, we include information about the recovery model and the medical model; we provide evidence for recovery and document changes in mental health practices and policies incorporating recovery as the guiding principle. We also attempt to address the debate as to whether recovery is an evidence based practice. We propose that evidence based practice should be complementary to value-based and narrative-based practices and we suggest an integrative model that maximises the virtues and minimises the weaknesses of each practices (see Figure 1).

Abstract:
Surgical sepsis has evolved into two major subpopulations: patients who rapidly recover, and those who develop chronic critical illness (CCI). Our primary aim was to determine whether CCI sepsis survivors manifest unique blood leukocyte transcriptomes in late sepsis that differ from transcriptomes among sepsis survivors with rapid recovery. In a prospective cohort study of surgical ICU patients, genome-wide expression analysis was conducted on total leukocytes in human whole blood collected on days 1 and 14 from sepsis survivors who rapidly recovered or developed CCI, defined as ICU length of stay ≥ 14 days with persistent organ dysfunction. Both sepsis patients who developed CCI and those who rapidly recovered exhibited marked changes in genome-wide expression at day 1 which remained abnormal through day 14. Although summary changes in gene expression were similar between CCI patients and subjects who rapidly recovered, CCI patients exhibited differential expression of 185 unique genes compared with rapid recovery patients at day 14 (p < 0.001). The transcriptomic patterns in sepsis survivors reveal an ongoing immune dyscrasia at the level of the blood leukocyte transcriptome, consistent with persistent inflammation and immune suppression. Furthermore, the findings highlight important genes that could compose a prognostic transcriptomic metric or serve as therapeutic targets among sepsis patients that develop CCI.

Abstract:
Background. Promoting mental health and care in the community setting leads to the recovery of patients with mental illness. Although recovery in mental health is a complex phenomenon, caregivers and community members have important roles to play in the recovery process for patients with mental illness. Little is documented on how recovery is promoted in the community setting. This study explored the experience of patients, caregivers, and community members on how recovery can be realized in a patient with severe mental illness in Dar es Salaam. Methods. We conducted four focus group discussions (FGDs): two with caregivers and the other two with community members. Also, six in-depth interviews were held with patients with mental illness. Participants were purposively selected based on the type of information needed. Both FGD and in-depth interviews were digitally recorded and transcribed. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyze data. Findings. Four themes emerged from this study, which include promoting patients’ participation in household activities, improving patients’ support system, promoting patients’ self-care management, and providing safety and protection among patients with mental illness. However, financial, psychological, and establishing care and support centers and professional supports emerged as subthemes from patients’ support system. Conclusion. Caregivers and community members are significant stakeholders for promoting recovery for people with mental illness. The current study reveals that patients’ involvement in home activities, promoting self-care management, improving patients’ support systems, and providing safety and protection are important factors that promote recovery for people with mental illness. Advocating mental health awareness for caregivers and community members will bridge the gap to enhance the recovery for people with mental illness. Further research is needed in this area to explore the health care providers’ perspectives on the recovery process of mental illness in the hospital setting.

Abstract:
“Contrary to popular belief, partial recovery from Korsakoff's Psychosis is the rule and 21% recover more or less completely. However the extent to which the patient will recover cannot be predicted with confidence during the acute stages of the illness. Failure to appreciate these facts about the natural history of the mental illness may result in the premature confinement of the patient to a mental hospital” (Victoret al, 1971).

Abstract:
As the paradigm shift towards a recovery-oriented mental health system becomes more prominent, individuals with lived experience of mental illness will continue to write and speak their narratives of mental illness and recovery. This article discusses the social reality of people with mental illness: how they are stigmatized by the media and how competing narratives within the mental health system afflict people with this disability. It also discusses the empowering process of constructing a narrative that enables the narrator/speaker to find meaning in her/his experience while putting a realistic 'face' on mental illness and recovery for the general public. It further describes how telling a narrative to diverse audiences, including a college class of 'people in recovery' enhances the author's personal recovery by giving his life new meaning and purpose.

Abstract:
Traditionally, clinicians and healthcare users alike use the term “recovery” to imply a return to a premorbid state. This form of clinical recovery is objective, measureable and is a clear health outcome. In the past decade, an alternative to clinical recovery, also known as personal recovery, has gained traction in mental health and has impacted numerous mental health systems. Originally, personal recovery was conceptualised as an individually unique ongoing process for individuals with serious mental illness that emphasises on growth and potential for recovery, but it has also been proposed to be a clinical outcome for mental health professionals. In this commentary, we discuss the differences in the 2 models of recovery and attempt to illustrate the concepts behind personal recovery so as to clarify its usage in people with serious mental illnesses. Key words: Post-traumatic growth, Resilience, Stigma

Abstract:
Aim. This study investigates the effectiveness of a recovery-oriented training program on knowledge and attitudes of mental health care professionals towards recovery of people with serious mental illness.Methods. Using data from a longitudinal study of recovery, changes in knowledge and attitudes of 210 mental health care professionals towards recovery were explored using the Recovery Attitude Questionnaire and the Recovery Knowledge Inventory. The study uses a two-group multiple intervention interrupted time-series design which is a variant of the stepped-wedge trial design. A total of six measurements occasions took place.Results. This study shows that professionals' attitudes towards recovery from mental illness can improve with training. After two intensive recovery-oriented training sessions, mental health care professionals have a more positive attitude towards recovery in clinical practice.Conclusion. A recovery-oriented training program can change attitudes of mental health care professionals towards recovery of serious mental illness.

Abstract:
Background: Understanding the concept of recovery in severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia from the social and cultural aspects is important as it will help in developing models of recovery and appropriate interventions. Client and caregiver perspectives on recovery play a significant role in shaping these models and interventions. Hence, the aim of this study was to understand how clients with schizophrenia and their caregivers perceive recovery and to examine the differences between male and female clients with schizophrenia. Materials and methods: A total of 100 clients with schizophrenia and 80 caregivers of clients with schizophrenia were included in the study after written informed consent. A semi-structured proforma was used to collect the sociodemographic profile and illness variables. A questionnaire was developed to assess the indicators of recovery from mental illness and was administered to study participants. Descriptive statistics including frequency and percentages were used along with the chi-square test for analysis. Results: The most common indicators of recovery for the clients with schizophrenia were absence of symptoms (88%), no relapse (70%) and going back to work (70%), while for the caregivers were absence of symptoms (100%), becoming independent (92.5%) and no relapse (91%). Indicators of recovery were similar between male and female clients with schizophrenia except for the need to stop medication as an indicator of recovery observed significantly more in females ( p = .006). Most clients used internal validation of indicators to assess their recovery (79%). Conclusion: Results indicate that clients and caregivers from India perceive recovery as being symptom free, able to go back to work and being independent. Clients with schizophrenia use internal validation to assess recovery. Gender does not play a role in the perceptions toward recovery in schizophrenia. These results will help in developing models of recovery for severe mental illness in Indian context leading to tailored interventions.

Abstract:
BackgroundIn Hungary the psychological care provided during the rehabilitation of patients with chronic illnesses is insufficient. Patients with addiction, on the other hand, appear to make more use of psychological services. Narratives of patients recovering from addiction and patients with various chronic illnesses were examined in order to gain a better understanding of psychological phenomena during rehabilitation.MethodsSemi-structured interviews were carried out. Narrative and thematic analysis was used in order to determine the structure and characteristics of patients' narratives.ResultsThe narratives of patients recovering from addiction were found to be more structured and uniform; they identified with their illness and played an active role in their recovery. Patients with a chronic illness mainly recounted passive events and physical difficulties. Stigmatization was mentioned by both groups.Implications for practiceThe level of stigmatization experienced by patients with a chronic illness may be one of the reasons why they use healthcare services more frequently than patients with an addiction. The authors believe that teaching patients to provide good narratives about suffering from and recovering from chronic illnesses may aid them in the rehabilitation process. An adaptive mixture of different illnesses and addiction narratives might be beneficial in the recovery process of various patient groups.

Abstract:
Illness uncertainty is a common experience across many chronic and acute conditions. Patients with cardiac conditions may experience uncertainty in relation to various aspects of their illness, including its causes, management and prognosis, as well as uncertainty about the future more broadly. There are several contributors to illness uncertainty among these patients, many of which are related to patient factors, such as previous expectations of the illness, sensitivity to physical symptoms and intolerance of uncertainty. Service factors, such as inadequate provision of information, can also contribute to illness uncertainty. Heightened illness uncertainty may result in negative psychological, cognitive and behavioural outcomes. Fears related to the future, specifically fear of disease progression and recurrent events, play an important role in how illness uncertainty is experienced by patients with cardiac conditions. This article presents an overview of illness uncertainty and its impact on cardiac recovery.

Abstract:
Background and Aim: Medicine is traditionally considered a healing profession, yet concepts of healing are rarely applied to mental illness, recovery being the dominant discourse. This article reports one aspect of the results of a broader exploration, through a service user lens, of aspects of place that facilitate healing in mental health care, with a resulting conceptualisation of healing. Method: The research material comprised the author’s historical writings of her experience of mental illness and recovery and in-depth individual interviews with 10 mental health service users. Analysed thematically, emerging ideas were further developed through an autoethnographically informed, reflexive and iterative process. Results: Healing is necessary when there has been a disruption of integrity and wholeness, experienced as suffering. Offering opportunities for connection, integration and transformation, and acquiring wisdom along the way, healing is a journey of exploration that takes time and is hard work. Discussion: Healing is conceptualised as the intensely personal experience at the heart of recovery, reminding us of the fundamental personal processes at the heart of our journeys. As a universal human experience, healing potentially removes the sense of othering that is at the heart of mental illness stigma.

Abstract:
Patients with COVID-19 may develop a range of neurological disorders. We report here 4 COVID-19 subjects with intensive care unit-acquired weakness and their functional outcome. In addition, a scoping review of COVID-19 literature was performed to investigate this issue. Of the post-COVID-19 patients admitted to our Neuro-Rehabilitation Unit, 4 (3 males, 1 female; mean age 59.2 ± 8.62 years) had intensive care unit-acquired weakness, diagnosed with electromyography. Muscle strength and functional evaluation were performed on all patients with Medical Research Council, Disability Rating Scale and Functional Independence Measure, respectively, at admission, discharge and 6-month follow-up after discharge. Electromyography revealed that 3 subjects had critical illness polyneuropathy and 1 had critical illness polyneuropathy/critical illness myopathy. At follow-up, the 3 subjects with critical illness polyneuropathy reached full recovery. The patient with critical illness polyneuropathy/critical illness myopathy showed moderate disability requiring bilateral ankle foot-orthosis and support for ambulation. The scoping review retrieved 11 studies of COVID-19 patients with intensive care unit-acquired weakness, concerning a total of 80 patients: 23 with critical illness myopathy (7 probable), 21 with critical illness polyneuropathy (8 possible), 15 with critical illness polyneuropathy and myopathy (CIPNM) and 21 with intensive care unit-acquired weakness. Of 35 patients who survived, only 3 (8.5%) reached full recovery. All 3 had critical illness myopathy, but 2 of these had a diagnosis of probable critical illness myopathy. Intensive care unit-acquired weakness commonly occurred in subjects with COVID-19. Recovery was variable and a low percentage reached full recovery. However, the heterogeneity of studies did not allow definitive conclusions to be drawn. LAY ABSTRACTPatients with COVID-19 may develop a range of neurological disorders. We report here 4 cases of COVID-19 patients with intensive care unit-acquired weakness and their functional outcome. In addition, a scoping review of the COVID-19 literature was performed to investigate the occurrence of, and recovery from, intensive care unit-acquired weakness and sub-types (critical illness polyneuropathy, critical illness myopathy and critical illness polyneuropathy/critical illness myopathy) in subjects with COVID-19. Of these 4 patients, the 3 patients with critical illness polyneuropathy reached full recovery. The patient with critical illness polyneuropathy/critical illness myopathy showed moderate disability, requiring use of a bilateral device (ankle foot-orthosis). The scoping review of studies of COVID-19 patients with intensive care unit-acquired weakness retrieved a total of 80 patients: 21 with intensive care unit-acquired weakness, 23 with critical illness myopathy, 21 with critical illness polyneuropathy, and 15 with critical illness polyneuropathy/critical illness myopathy. Intensive care unit-acquired weakness commonly occurred in COVID-19 subjects, but the outcome was variable and a low percentage reached full recovery. COVID-19 subjects can develop long-term consequences and limitations, particularly those with intensive care unit-acquired weakness, who need more rehabilitation. New rehabilitative strategies and well-designed studies investigating the benefit of rehabilitation are necessary.
