 during hospitalization 41/43 (95%)

Median percent [IQR] of study days where cognitive therapy was received a,c
 during mechanical ventilation 100% [100–100%]
 during ICU stay 100% [100–100%]
 during hospitalization 100% [92–100%]

Received Physical Therapy, n/N (%)

 during ICU stay 10/21 (48%) 18/19 (95%) 40/41 (98%)
 during hospitalization 17/22 (77%) 21/22 (95%) 42/43 (98%)

Median percent [IQR] of study days where physical therapy was received
 during mechanical ventilation 0% [0–13%] 71% [67–100%] 100% [86–100%]
 during ICU stay 0% [0–20%] 96% [63–100%] 89% [60–100%]
 during hospitalization 17% [10–26%] 67% [46–87%] 75% [59–88%]
a

only patients in the Cognitive + Physical Therapy group received cognitive therapy

b

Data indicate the number of patients in each clinical status with ≥1 study day alert enough to receive study interventions. For example, only 33 patients randomized to the Cognitive + Physical Therapy group were mechanically ventilated, all received physical therapy but only 32 received cognitive therapy

c

Data indicate days where the patient was eligible to receive cognitive therapy protocol (i.e., RASS -3 or more alert for the cognitive therapy protocol)
