Guest Editor and PTJ Editorial Board Member Patricia Ohtake, PT, PhD, joins Editor in Chief Rebecca Craik, PT, PhD, FAPTA, in this month's Craikcast, which highlights the articles in the December issue Special Series on Rehabilitation for People With Critical Illness. Ohtake summarizes the articles, and Craik adds her thoughts on important research conducted by established authors in the field, including physical therapists from across the United States and from Australia. Ohtake also discusses a 2-fold challenge of the critical care and rehabilitation communities—to continue to develop effective rehabilitation interventions and to increase awareness of postintensive care syndrome.    

The special series will be published in 2 issues—December 2012 and February 2013.
