The investigator hypothesize that, during an IPDE consultation 3 months after discharge from critical care, the investigator will identify PTSD in approximately one-third of children, and show an association between this syndrome and quality of life in children admitted to pediatric intensive care.
Patients aged between 1 and 17.5 years at inclusion
Having stayed in a paediatric intensive care unit in one of the 2 participating centers: Lyon or Grenoble
Requiring mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive) for more than 24 hours
Patients already under the care of a psychologist or psychiatrist
patients who died during their stay in intensive care
Patients who died between discharge and 3 months
Patients suspected of abuse
Single group
detect post-traumatic stress disorder
Other interventionrecommendation for follow-up by a professional specializing in child development and/or a complementary medical consultation
post-traumatic stress disorder
Prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as defined by a standardized assessment of PTSD using the Children's Revised Impact of Event Scale (CRIES-13) scale for children over 7 years of age. Range from 0 to 80. Higher scores indicate greater post-traumatic stress
Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM (PEDSQL scale)
assessing Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM (PESQL scale) at 3 months in patients admitted to pediatric critical care. Range from 0 to 230. Higher scores indicate better health related quality of life.
correlation between the PTSD score and the child's quality of life
correlation between the post-traumatic stress disorder score (Using Children's Revised Impact of Event Scale - range from 0 to 65 - the higher the score, the greater the impact of the event on the child) and the child's quality of life ( Using Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM scale - range from 0 to 230 - higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life)
Measurement of the association between the characteristics of children and their stay in critical care, and the presence of PTSD
Search for factors associated with the onset of PTSD. Measurement of the association between the characteristics of children and their stay in critical care, and the presence of PTSD (using the Children's Revised Impact of event Scale - Range from 0to 65 - the higher the score, the greater the impact of the event on the child)
number of children with significant somatic symptoms
Estimate the proportion of children presenting significant and disabling somatic symptoms in their lives, requiring referral to the appropriate healthcare professionals.
