Summary
French national clinical practice guidelines on paediatric post-intensive care syndrome (PICS-p), covering physical, cognitive, psychological and socio-familial morbidity in children and families after PICU discharge. Forty recommendations, mostly expert opinion, address systematic repeated screening from admission through the first year after discharge and structured follow-up pathways. Preventive themes include the ABCDEFGH bundle, early mobilisation, optimised analgesia and sedation, delirium prevention and family-centred psychological support. Highly applicable to multidisciplinary PICU teams designing follow-up and rehabilitation services.
