Abstract: Objective: To investigate the current status of post traumatic growth and resilience among patients rolling out from the intensive care unit (ICU), and to explore the effect of resilience on post traumatic growth. Methods: Totally 356 patients rolling out from the ICU were investigated by general information questionnaire, Post Traumatic Growth Assessment Scale, and the Chinese version of the CD-RISC Resilience Scale. Results: The mean scores of post traumatic growth and resilience were (65.12±15.83) and (65.23±13.32), respectively. The subscales of post traumatic growth were positively correlated with the subscales of resilience (P<0.05). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the mechanical ventilation, education, age, tenacity, optimism and self-reliance were the influencing factors of post traumatic growth(P<0.05). Conclusions: The post traumatic growth and resilience among patients rolling out from ICU were in the low level,and the tenacity, optimism and self-reliance were the influencing factors of post traumatic growth.
