Diseases of the peripheral nervous system create an additional diagnostic conundrum within the intensive care setting. Causes are vast, presentations are myriad, and symptoms are often ill-defined or misidentified.

In general, survivors achieve a good functional recovery relative to their preintensive care unit baseline.
