With the acceleration of the aging process of the population in China, the utilization rate and transfer rate of ICU have significantly increased. More and more ICU survivors have post intensive care syndrome. If they cannot be intervened in time, the quality of life of patients will be seriously affected, and at the same time, the readmission rate will increase, impacting the scarce medical resources. Critical care recovery center have been established abroad for early identification and intervention of post intensive care syndrome. This paper intended to analyze the construction theory and operation mode of foreign critical care recovery center, summarize foreign experience, and put forward corresponding suggestions in combination with China′s national conditions, so as to provide reference for the construction of ritical care recovery center in China, with a view to providing long-term rehabilitation care services for patients with post intensive care syndrome in China.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the value of hand-held retinal optometer and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in predicting postoperative visual acuity in patients with age-related cataract and idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane.
METHODS:
We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients undergoing phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation for age-related cataract in our hospital from January, 2019 to April, 2020.Preoperative examination detected idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane in 45 of the patients (52 eyes) with lens opacity grade C2N2P1 according to LOCSⅡ lens opacity classification criteria.Based on the thickness of the macular fovea, the eyes were divided into group A (9 eyes) with macular thickness < 300 μm by OCT examination, group B (25 eyes) with macular thickness of 300 to 400 μm, and group C (18 eyes) with macular thickness >400 μm.The best corrected visual acuity and retinal visual acuity before operation and the best corrected visual acuity on the first day and at 3 months after the surgery were compared among the 3 groups.The consistency between the preoperative retinal vision and the best corrected vision at 3 months after the surgery was analyzed.
RESULTS:
The best corrected visual acuity at one day and 3 months after the surgery differed significantly from that before the surgery in all the 3 groups (
CONCLUSIONS
For patients with cataract and idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane, phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation can improve postoperative vision.Hand-held retinal optometer can accurately assess postoperative vision in patients with stage C2N2P1 cataract.Patients with a macular thickness >400 μm caused by idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane are likely to have poor postoperative visual outcomes.
