Propensity score matching panel. Demographic table (A): representative dataset of baseline characteristics after propensity score matching. ICU, intensive care unit; APACHE II, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II; SIMD, Scottish index of multiple deprivation; time to follow-up, months, from hospital discharge. Outcome measures table with splines (B): effects of intervention on all outcome measures alongside coefficient graph of effect size. Effect of intervention: absolute change in scores (linear models) and odds risk ratio of screening for the condition (anxiety or depression) 1 year after intensive care compared with usual care. Point estimate values (circle, square, triangle) and 95% CI. InS:PIRE, Intensive Care Syndrome: Promoting Independence and Return to Employment; EuroQol Health Utility Score, absolute change, taken from EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) ‘crosswalk UK scores’, range - 0.594 to 1.0; EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-VAS), absolute change, range 0 to 100; Generalised Self-efficacy: absolute change, range 10 to 40; HADS: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale with individual component scores for anxiety and depression, odds risk ratios of screening positive for anxiety or depression; Brief pain inventory (BPI), absolute change in pain scores, all scores range from 0 to 10, average (single component score), worst pain (single component score), and summary score (composite/mean score from four pain scores: ‘average’, ‘worst’, ‘least’ and ‘pain right now’); pain interference scores from BPI, absolute change, scores range from 0 to 10, enjoyment in life (single component), work (single component), and summary pain interference (composite/mean score from seven interference components).
