    Purpose Of ReviewThe purpose of this review is to examine evidence describing the influence of social determinants on recovery following hospitalization with critical illness. In addition, it is meant to provide insight into the several mechanisms through which social factors influence recovery as well as illuminate approaches to addressing these factors at various levels in research, clinical care, and policy.Recent FindingsSocial determinants of health, ranging from individual factors like social support and socioeconomic status to contextual ones like neighborhood deprivation, are associated with disability, cognitive impairment, and mental health after critical illness. Furthermore, many social factors are reciprocally related to recovery wherein the consequences of critical illness such as financial toxicity and caregiver burden can put essential social needs under strain turning them into barriers to recovery.SummaryRecovery after hospitalization for critical illness may be influenced by many social factors. These factors warrant attention by clinicians, health systems, and policymakers to enhance long-term outcomes of critical illness survivors.Copyright © 2022 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
