treatment of ICU delirium.
- University of Pittsburgh Pepper Center Large Pilot Grant, Milbrandt EB, PI, 6/01/06 - 6/30/08
Age-Related Changes in Strength, Mobility, and Balance after Critical Illness
Major goals of this project: 1) To measure and describe deficits and recovery trajectories of strength, mobility, and balance after critical illness; 2) To examine age-related changes in strength, mobility, and balance after critical illness, 3) To examine the role of acute inflammation in the underlying pathophysiology of post-critical illness strength, mobility, and balance deficits.
