Early mobilization has been demonstrated to be both safe and feasible for patients admitted to critical care.

During periods of hospitalisation, facilitating mobility helps people recover faster and regain their independence to help return to life outside the hospital.

Early mobilization of ICU patients has been associated with improved muscle strength and functional independence, as well as a shorter duration of delirium, mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay.

In the pursuit of optimizing the rehabilitation journey for our esteemed veterans, the Veterans Administration (VA) has developed the Mobility Screening and Solutions Tool. This tool aims to enhance early mobilization and improve the functional outcomes of veterans.

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients frequently have extreme derangement of physiological function.

Reduced mobility is a significant risk factor for pressure injury development, international guidelines emphasise the need for regular turning and repositioning of patients to help prevent skin damage¹. While a pressure redistribution mattress may enable the repositioning regimen to be individualised, regular postural change is still important but not without risk to the patient or caregiver.
