The aim of this study was to measure the association between (1) changes in knee extension muscle strength or quadriceps femoris and rectus femoris muscle thickness and (2) changes in functionality\/function-related measurements in post\u2013intensive care unit patients.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n This prospective cohort study included adult patients without previous disability, consecutively selected after intensive care unit discharge. Some parameters, such as Short-Form 36, 6-min walking test, 1-min sit-to-stand, and Short Physical Performance Battery, were measured at baseline and 3 and 6 mos after discharge. Correlations were assessed and regression models were built to assess the association between evolution in knee extension strength or muscle thickness and evolution in functional tests.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Thirty patients completed the follow-up. Moderate correlation was found between knee extension strength change and Short-Form 36 physical functioning (correlation coefficient [\u03c1<\/jats:italic>] = 0.53), 6-min walking test (\u03c1<\/jats:italic> = 0.38), 1-min sit-to-stand (\u03c1<\/jats:italic> = 0.52), and Short Physical Performance Battery (\u03c1<\/jats:italic> = 0.38). Baseline values and changes in knee extension strength moderately predicted evolution in Short-Form 36 physical functioning (r<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup> = 0.32, P<\/jats:italic> = 0.006). Changes in muscle thickness were overall not associated with changes in functional variables.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Changes in knee extension muscle strength may inform on functional progression over time after intensive care unit discharge, although confirmatory studies are needed.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/phm.0000000000002137","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,2]],"date-time":"2023-02-02T20:26:00Z","timestamp":1675369560000},"page":"513-521","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Association Between Knee Extension Strength and Functional Capacity After Intensive Care Unit Discharge"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"102","author":[{"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Pinto-Ramos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Tiago","family":"Moreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Liliana","family":"Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Frederico","family":"Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Joana","family":"Barroso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Bernardo","family":"Sousa-Pinto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bib1-20250616","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1603","DOI":"10.1097\/CCM.0000000000001016","article-title":"Qualitative ultrasound in acute critical illness muscle wasting","volume":"43","year":"2015","journal-title":"Crit Care Med"},{"key":"bib2-20250616","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1151.e9","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcrc.2015.05.024","article-title":"Ultrasonography in the intensive care setting can be used to detect changes in the quality and quantity of muscle and is related to muscle strength and function","volume":"30","year":"2015","journal-title":"J Crit Care"},{"key":"bib3-20250616","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2386","DOI":"10.1097\/CCM.0b013e3181f3dec5","article-title":"Quality of life after intensive care: A systematic review of the literature","volume":"38","year":"2010","journal-title":"Crit Care Med"},{"key":"bib4-20250616","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3599","DOI":"10.1097\/00003246-200011000-00006","article-title":"Long-term health-related quality of life in survivors of sepsis.
