Résumé
Abstract There is a global improvement in critical care services that leads to prolonged survival after ICU stay. This improvement has increased the demand for multidisciplinary critical care services beyond the ICU. Recently, efforts focused on the patient's quality of life after ICU discharge and family involvement in their care. Most older adults who survive an ICU stay are challenged by complex medication changes following discharge, as are their caregivers. Limited literature addresses the standard of practice for medication management and critical care pharmacists' involvement in post-ICU services. This narrative review describes the available literature that addresses medication management in post-ICU settings by critical care pharmacists and potential axes for future research. The included articles were articles published in English related to adult ICU survivors and addressed pharmacist involvement or medication management. The main findings summarize the most performed pharmacist services following ICU discharge, including medication reconciliation, full medication review, and adverse drug event preventative measures. This review concluded a lack of consensus about the standard model of post-ICU pharmacy services and the relationship of these services with long-term outcomes.
