Summary

Since the SARS-CoV-2 infection is relatively new, the long term attributable burden related to COVID19 has not been investigated yet. To date, in patients with COVID-19 and their family members, there is little information on the functional status, cognitive ability, pattern of return to work, and health related quality of life after the ICU admission. This study aims to describe the psychological wellbeing, physical - and social functioning of COVID-19 ICU survivors and their family members up to 12 months following ICU discharge.
