Assessment Tools for Cognitive Impairment in Critically Ill Patients Post‐ ICU Transfer: A Comparative Study

Key Points

• The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the TICS-m scale in detecting cognitive impairment among critically ill patients after ICU discharge.
• Compared the TICS-m scale with other cognitive assessment tools.
• Evaluated cognitive function in patients post-ICU transfer.
• Analyzed predictive value of the TICS-m scale across various clinical settings.
• The TICS-m scale effectively detects cognitive dysfunction after ICU discharge.
• Findings support the scale's incorporation into ongoing patient assessments.
• Recommendations for future research include broader clinical applicability of the scale.
