* MILLIONS OF FORMER ICU PATIENTS WILL EXPERIENCE PICS IN 2020, UNLESS SOMETHING
CHANGES, EVERY YEAR MOVING FORWARD? 

40%

Will Experience Depression

40%

60%

Will Have Cognitive Deficits, Like a Traumatic Brain Injury

Will Experience Anxiety

25%

Will Have Cognitive Deficits, Like Mild Dementia

* The following percentages represent a conservative estimate as found in a
cross-section of PICS research. Many researchers place much higher percentages
on these symptoms & medical conditions.


OUR MISSION IS TO BUILD A LARGE COMMUNITY OF POSTICU MEMBERS. AS A GROUP, WE
HOPE TO IMPROVE THE ABOVE LISTED PERCENTAGES.

In addition to providing educational tools to former ICU patients, their
caregivers & families, the medical community, and the public, PostICU believes
that its role in the process of addressing the PICS major health crisis is to
recruit as many members to join our 501(c)3 nonprofit agency.



With the support of a large membership, we will be positioned to approach
decision-makers at critical care organizations, hospitals, and health insurance
companies. We'd like a seat at the table, so that we can offer commonsense
solutions to this complex medical problem.
