[The specificities of the interventions of physiotherapists in intensive care]. / Les spécificités des interventions des masseurs-kinésithérapeutes en réanimation.

ABSTRACT

The intervention of physiotherapists in the intensive care unit allows the optimisation of the care project through the assessment and management of the motor, respiratory and swallowing functions of patients. If COVID-19 has only slightly modified the practice of these professionals, the impact of the pandemic on intensive care units has reinforced the added value of their care.
