Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Post-ICU Problem SolvingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

The PIC-UPS intervention focuses on self-regulation activities and environmental cues to overcome problems with memory, planning and decision-making. The interventionist uses guided discovery, reviews progress, and emphasizes generalization and transfer to other patient-identified problems. This approach may be more acceptable to participants because they can see the relevance of tasks to everyday life. Activities such as goal-setting, self-evaluation and reflective thinking behaviors enhance self-efficacy and increase the likelihood that the individual will engage in self-management behaviors. The first session of PIC-UPS will be delivered after enrollment to those participants randomized to the intervention group. Weekly intervention sessions will be conducted by a trained interventionist and supplemented by telephone reminders to complete daily homework. Follow-up data collection will be conducted in the home by a blinded data collector three months post-enrollment.

Group II: Control GroupActive Control1 Intervention

Participants in the control group will complete several surveys upon enrollment and randomization. Follow-up data collection will be conducted in the home for all participants control group by a blinded data collector three months post-enrollment.
