ICU stay and ventilation duration were shorter in pts randomised to receive "non-invasive neuromuscular electrical stimulation to contract abdominal wall in synchrony with exhalation" (30 min, twice per day, 5 days per week, until ICU discharge) https://t.

@trishgreenhalgh Eq5d-3l is probably best in the ICU. We tried using SF-36 in a pilot trial of an intervention to reduce mechanical ventilation duration in the ICU and found it to be too long and too complicated https://t.co/MlBXV6aq1O
