FSS-ICU Scores at ICU Discharge Differ Across Postacute Care Dispositions
JOURNAL OF ACUTE CARE PHYSICAL THERAPY(2022)
Abstract
Purpose: To determine whether Functional Status Score for the Intensive Care Unit (FSS-ICU) scores acquired within 24 hours of medical-surgical intensive care unit (MSICU) discharge differ among postacute care discharge dispositions in a nonsurgical patient population. Methods: A retrospective medical record review for data collection was conducted over 12 months for patients in an MSICU. FSS-ICU scores were collected within 24 hours of MSICU discharge. Subjects were categorized into 4 postacute care discharge dispositions: home, subacute rehabilitation (SAR), inpatient rehabilitation (IP), or other. A 1-way analysis of variance and post hoc analyses were performed. Results: One hundred fifteen subjects were included. FSS-ICU scores acquired within 24 hours of MSICU discharge were significantly different (P < .001) between postacute care discharge dispositions. Post hoc analysis showed a statistically significant difference between home and SAR (P < .001), home and IP (P < .001), and home and other (P = .005). Conclusions: A difference was found in FSS-ICU scores acquired within 24 hours of MSICU discharge between home and all other postacute care discharge dispositions in a nonsurgical patient population. An FSS-ICU score less than 27 at MSICU discharge indicates that discharge planning to a postacute care discharge disposition other than home may be warranted.
