Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyFactors associated with non-response at health-related quality of life follow-up in a septic shock trial.
Follow-up of intensive care unit (ICU) patients often includes health-related quality of life (HRQoL) surveying, but non-responders hamper the interpretation. Our aim was to assess factors for non-response to HRQoL survey in ICU patients with septic shock at follow-up in a clinical trial. ⋯ Being younger, spending more days in hospital and living alone were all associated with non-response at 1-year HRQoL follow-up among ICU patients with septic shock.
