Recovery and Return Clinic

The Recovery and Return (R2) Clinic helps children and families during the first year of recovery from pediatric cardiac arrest and critical illness. We will help you identify and manage common physical, neurologic, cognitive and behavioral problems that your child might experience after discharge from the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).

Children who are hospitalized in the PICU due to any of the following conditions or circumstances may be part of the R2 Clinic:

• Cardiac arrest
• Acute respiratory distress syndrome
• Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Sepsis
• ECMO
• Prolonged PICU stays
