Association between comorbidities at ICU admission and post-Sepsis physical impairment: A retrospective cohort study. J Crit Care 2024; 83:154833. [PMID: 38776846 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2024.154833] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Few studies have measured the association between pre-existing comorbidities and post-sepsis physical impairment. The study aimed to estimate the risk of physical impairment at hospital discharge among sepsis patients, adjusting for pre-existing physical impairment prior to ICU admission and in-hospital mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed all consecutive adult patients admitted to an ICU in a tertiary community hospital, Kameda Medical Center, with sepsis diagnosis from September 2014 to October 2020. Inverse probability attrition weighting using machine learning was employed to estimate the risk of physical impairment at hospital discharge for sepsis patients with and without pre-existing comorbidities at ICU admission. This estimation was adjusted for baseline covariates, pre-ICU physical impairment, and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Of 889 sepsis patients analyzed, 668 [75.1%] had at least one comorbidity and 221 [24.9%] had no comorbidities at ICU admission. Upon adjusting for baseline covariates, pre-ICU physical impairment, and in-hospital mortality, pre-existing comorbidities were not associated with an elevated risk of physical impairment at hospital discharge (RR: 1.02, 95% CI: 0.92, 1.14). CONCLUSIONS Pre-existing comorbidities prior to ICU admission were not associated with an increased risk of physical impairment at hospital discharge among sepsis patients after adjusting for baseline covariates and in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
A scientific panel was created consisting of 23 interdisciplinary and interprofessional experts in intensive care medicine, physiotherapy, nursing care, surgery, rehabilitative medicine, and pneumology delegated from scientific societies together with a patient representative and a delegate from the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies who advised methodological implementation. The guideline was created according to the German Association of the Scientific Medical Societies (AWMF), based on The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) II. The topics of (early) mobilisation, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, assist devices for mobilisation, and positioning, including prone positioning, were identified as areas to be addressed and assigned to specialist expert groups, taking conflicts of interest into account. The panel formulated PICO questions (addressing the population, intervention, comparison or control group as well as the resulting outcomes), conducted a systematic literature review with abstract screening and full-text analysis and created summary tables. This was followed by grading the evidence according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine 2011 Levels of Evidence and a risk of bias assessment. The recommendations were finalized according to GRADE and voted using an online Delphi process followed by a final hybrid consensus conference. The German long version of the guideline was approved by the professional associations. For this English version an update of the systematic review was conducted until April 2024 and recommendation adapted based on new evidence in systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials. In total, 46 recommendations were developed and research gaps addressed.

Abstract
Cardiogenic shock is characterized by tissue hypoperfusion due to the inadequate cardiac output to maintain the tissue oxygen demand. Despite some advances in cardiogenic shock management, extremely high mortality is still associated with this clinical syndrome. Its management is based on the immediate stabilization of hemodynamic parameters through medical care and the use of mechanical circulatory supports in specialized centers. This review aims to understand the cardiogenic shock current medical treatment, consisting mainly of inotropic drugs, vasopressors and coronary revascularization. In addition, we highlight the relevance of applying measures to other organ levels based on the optimization of mechanical ventilation and the appropriate initiation of renal replacement therapy.

Abstract
Objectives While electrical stimulation has been demonstrated to improve medical research council (MRC) scores in critically ill patients, its effectiveness remains a subject of debate. This meta-analysis aimed to discuss recent insights into the effectiveness of electrical stimulation in improving muscle strength and its effects on different clinical outcomes in critically ill adults. Methods A comprehensive search of major electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase, was conducted from inception to June 15, 2024, to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated the effects of electrical stimulation in critically ill patients. The analysis focused on comparing electrical stimulation to standard care, sham interventions, or placebo. Outcomes of interest included MRC scores, duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), mortality rate, and intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital length of stay (LOS). Results A total of 23 RCTs, including 1798 patients, met the inclusion criteria. The findings demonstrated a significant benefit of electrical stimulation over usual care in enhancing global muscle strength, as measured by MRC scores (MD =3.62, 95% CI 0.94 to 6.30, p = 0.0008, I2 = 87%). While subgroup analysis of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) demonstrated no significant effect on ICU LOS, sensitivity analysis indicated a potential reduction in ICU LOS for both EMS (MD = -11.0, 95% CI -21.12 to -0.88, p = 0.03) and electrical stimulation overall (MD = -1.02, 95% CI -1.96 to -0.08, p = 0.03) compared to the control group. In addition, sensitivity analysis suggested that both electrical stimulation (MD = -2.38, 95% CI -3.81 to -0.94, p = 0.001) and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) specifically (MD = -2.36, 95% CI -3.85 to -0.88, p = 0.002) may contribute to a decrease in hospital LOS. No statistically significant differences were observed in mortality or duration of MV. Conclusion Electrical stimulation appears to be an effective intervention for improving MRC scores in critically ill patients. However, further research is warranted to explain the potential effects of electrical stimulation on hospital LOS and ICU LOS.

Early physical rehabilitation dosage in the intensive care unit associates with hospital outcomes after critical COVID-19. Crit Care 2024; 28:248. [PMID: 39026370 PMCID: PMC11256579 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-024-05035-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship between physical rehabilitation parameters including an approach to quantifying dosage with hospital outcomes for patients with critical COVID-19. DESIGN Retrospective practice analysis from March 5, 2020, to April 15, 2021. SETTING Intensive care units (ICU) at four medical institutions. PATIENTS n = 3780 adults with ICU admission and diagnosis of COVID-19. INTERVENTIONS We measured the physical rehabilitation treatment delivered in ICU and patient outcomes: (1) mortality; (2) discharge disposition; and (3) physical function at hospital discharge measured by the Activity Measure-Post Acute Care (AM-PAC) "6-Clicks" (6-24, 24 = greater functional independence). Physical rehabilitation dosage was defined as the average mobility level scores in the first three sessions (a surrogate measure of intensity) multiplied by the rehabilitation frequency (PT + OT frequency in hospital). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The cohort was a mean 64 ± 16 years old, 41% female, mean BMI of 32 ± 9 kg/m2 and 46% (n = 1739) required mechanical ventilation. For 2191 patients who received rehabilitation, the dosage and AM-PAC at discharge were moderately, positively associated (Spearman's rho [r] = 0.484, p < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression (model adjusted R2 = 0.68, p < 0.001) demonstrates mechanical ventilation (β = - 0.86, p = 0.001), average mobility score in first three sessions (β = 2.6, p < 0.001) and physical rehabilitation dosage (β = 0.22, p = 0.001) were predictive of AM-PAC scores at discharge when controlling for age, sex, BMI, and ICU LOS. CONCLUSIONS Greater physical rehabilitation exposure early in the ICU is associated with better physical function at hospital discharge.

Abstract
This review offers a comprehensive guide for general intensivists on the utility of continuous EEG (cEEG) monitoring for critically ill patients. Beyond the primary role of EEG in detecting seizures, this review explores its utility in neuroprognostication, monitoring neurological deterioration, assessing treatment responses, and aiding rehabilitation in patients with encephalopathy, coma, or other consciousness disorders. Most seizures and status epilepticus (SE) events in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting are nonconvulsive or subtle, making cEEG essential for identifying these otherwise silent events. Imaging and invasive approaches can add to the diagnosis of seizures for specific populations, given that scalp electrodes may fail to identify seizures that may be detected by depth electrodes or electroradiologic findings. When cEEG identifies SE, the risk of secondary neuronal injury related to the time-intensity "burden" often prompts treatment with anti-seizure medications. Similarly, treatment may be administered for seizure-spectrum activity, such as periodic discharges or lateralized rhythmic delta slowing on the ictal-interictal continuum (IIC), even when frank seizures are not evident on the scalp. In this setting, cEEG is utilized empirically to monitor treatment response. Separately, cEEG has other versatile uses for neurotelemetry, including identifying the level of sedation or consciousness. Specific conditions such as sepsis, traumatic brain injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cardiac arrest may each be associated with a unique application of cEEG; for example, predicting impending events of delayed cerebral ischemia, a feared complication in the first two weeks after subarachnoid hemorrhage. After brief training, non-neurophysiologists can learn to interpret quantitative EEG trends that summarize elements of EEG activity, enhancing clinical responsiveness in collaboration with clinical neurophysiologists. Intensivists and other healthcare professionals also play crucial roles in facilitating timely cEEG setup, preventing electrode-related skin injuries, and maintaining patient mobility during monitoring.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to analyze the published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the effects of exercise interventions on functioning and health-related quality of life following hospital discharge for recovery from critical illness. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs. DATA SOURCES We searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PEDro data base, and SciELO (from the earliest date available to January 2023) for RCTs that evaluated the effects of physical rehabilitation interventions following hospital discharge for recovery from critical illness. REVIEW METHODS Study quality was evaluated using the PEDro Scale. Mean differences (MDs), standard MDs (SMD), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS Fourteen studies met the study criteria, including 1259 patients. Exercise interventions improved aerobic capacity SMD 0.2 (95% CI: 0.03-0.3, I2 = 0% N = 880, nine studies, high-quality evidence), and physical component score of health-related quality of life MD 3.3 (95% CI: 1.0-5.6, I2 = 57%, six studies N = 669, moderate-quality evidence). In addition, a significant reduction in depression was observed MD -1.4 (95% CI: -2.7 to -0.1, I2 = 0% N = 148, three studies, moderate-quality evidence). No serious adverse events were reported. CONCLUSION Exercise intervention was associated with improvement of aerobic capacity, depression, and physical component score of health-related quality of life after hospital discharge for survivors of critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is increasing use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in intensive care, where nurses provide the majority of the required ongoing care of cannulas, circuit, and console. Limited evidence currently exists that details nursing perspectives, experiences, and challenges with workload in the provision of ECMO care. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate intensive care nurses' perceptions of workload in providing specialist ECMO therapy and care in a high-volume ECMO centre. METHODS The study used a qualitative descriptive methodology through semistructured interviews. Data were analysed using an inductive thematic analysis approach following Braun and Clarke's iterative process. This study was conducted in an intensive care unit within an Australian public, quaternary, university-affiliated hospital, which provides specialist state-wide service for ECMO. FINDINGS Thirty ECMO-specialist trained intensive care nurses were interviewed. This study identified three key themes: (i) opportunity; (ii) knowledge and responsibilities; and (iii) systems and structures impacting on intensive care nurses' workload in providing ECMO supportive therapy. CONCLUSIONS Intensive care nurses require advanced clinical and critical thinking skills. Intensive care nurses are motivated and engaged to learn and acquire ECMO skills and competency as part of their ongoing professional development. Providing bedside ECMO management requires constant monitoring and surveillance from nurses to care for the one of the most critically unwell patient populations in the intensive care unit setting. As such, ECMO nursing services require a suitably trained and educated workforce of intensive care trained nurses. ECMO services provide clinical development opportunities for nurses, increase their scope of practice, and create advanced practice-specialist roles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Muscle wasting results in weakness for patients with critical illness. We aim to explore ultrasound-derived rates of change in skeletal muscle in the intensive care unit (ICU) and following discharge to the post-ICU ward. DESIGN Post hoc analysis of a multicentre randomised controlled trial of functional-electrical stimulated cycling, recumbent cycling, and usual care delivered in intensive care. METHOD Participants underwent ultrasound assessment of rectus femoris at ICU admission, weekly in the ICU, upon awakening, ICU discharge, and hospital discharge. The primary outcome was rate of change in rectus femoris cross-sectional area (ΔRFCSA) in mm2/day in the ICU (enrolment to ICU discharge) and in the post-ICU ward (ICU discharge to hospital discharge). Secondary outcomes included rate of change in echo intensity (ΔEI), standard deviation of echo intensity (ΔEISD), and the intervention effect on ultrasound measures. Echo intensity is a quantitative assessment of muscle quality. Elevated echo intensity may indicate fluid infiltration, adipose tissue, and reduced muscle quality. RESULTS 154 participants were included (mean age: 58 ± 15 years, 34% female). Rectus femoris cross-sectional area declined in the ICU (-4 mm2/day [95% confidence interval {CI}: -9 to 1]) and declined further in the ward (-9 mm2/day [95% CI: -14 to -3]) with a mean difference between ICU and ward of -5 mm2/day ([95% CI: -2, to 11]; p = 0.1396). There was a nonsignificant difference in ΔEI between in-ICU and the post-ICU ward of 1.2 ([95% CI: -0.1 to 2.6]; p = 0.0755), a statistically significant difference in ΔEISD between in-ICU and in the post-ICU ward of 1.0 ([95% CI, 0.5 to 1.5]; p = 0.0003), and no difference in rate of change in rectus femoris cross-sectional area between groups in intensive care (p = 0.411) or at hospital discharge (p = 0.1309). CONCLUSIONS Muscle wasting occurs in critical illness throughout the hospital admission. The average rate of loss in muscle cross-sectional area does not slow after ICU discharge, even with active rehabilitation.

Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 82:103607. [PMID: 38158250 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2023.103607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Analyse the effect of varying start times for early exercise interventions on the prevention of intensive care unit-acquired weakness. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY We conducted a comprehensive search on PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, China Biology Medicine Disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan Fang Database, and reference lists up to May 2023. SETTING We systematically searched the literature for all randomized controlled trials on the effect of early mobilization in patients with critical illness. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome assessed was the incidence of intensive care unit-acquired weakness. The secondary outcomes included: the Medical Research Council Score, the Barthel Index, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of intensive care unit stay, total length of hospital stay, mortality and incidence of intensive care unit-related complications. RESULTS The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with routine care, less than 24 hours after admission (RR = 0.44, 95 %CI: 0.28-0.68), more than 24 hours (RR = 0.33, 95 %CI: 0.16-0.67), less than 72 hours after admission (RR = 0.33, 95 %CI: 0.20-0.52) may lead to a lower incidence of intensive care unit-acquired weakness. The results of under surface cumulative ranking showed that early mobilization within 72 hours may have the lowest incidence of intensive care unit-acquired weakness (SUCRA = 81.9 %). CONCLUSIONS The current empirical evidence from intensive care unit patients suggests that initiating mobilization protocols within 24-72 hours timeframe following admission to the intensive care unit could potentially be the most beneficial strategy to reduce the incidence of intensive care unit-acquired weakness and the related medical complications. Moreover, this strategy seems to significantly improve rehabilitation and treatment outcomes for these patients. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE According to this study, medical and nursing staff in the intensive care unit have the chance to identify the most suitable timing for the implementation of early rehabilitative measures for patients. This can potentially prevent intensive care unit-acquired weakness and enhance various clinical outcomes for patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM Dysfunction of skeletal muscle satellite cells might impair muscle regeneration and prolong ICU-acquired weakness, a condition associated with disability and delayed death. This study aimed to elucidate the distinct metabolic effects of critical illness and β-OH-butyrate on satellite cells isolated from these patients. METHODS Satellite cells were extracted from vastus lateralis muscle biopsies of patients with ICU-acquired weakness (n = 10) and control group of healthy volunteers or patients undergoing elective hip replacement surgery (n = 10). The cells were exposed to standard culture media supplemented with β-OH-butyrate to assess its influence on cell proliferation by ELISA, mitochondrial functions by extracellular flux analysis, electron transport chain complexes by high resolution respirometry, and ROS production by confocal microscopy. RESULTS Critical illness led to a decline in maximal respiratory capacity, ATP production and glycolytic capacity and increased ROS production in ICU patients' cells. Notably, the function of complex II was impaired due to critical illness but restored to normal levels upon exposure to β-OH-butyrate. While β-OH-butyrate significantly reduced ROS production in both control and ICU groups, it had no significant impact on global mitochondrial functions. CONCLUSION Critical illness induces measurable bioenergetic dysfunction of skeletal muscle satellite cells. β-OH-butyrate displayed a potential in rectifying complex II dysfunction caused by critical illness and this warrants further exploration.

Abstract
A significant number of intensive care unit (ICU) survivors experience new-onset functional impairments that impede their activities of daily living (ADL). Currently, no effective assessment tools are available to identify these high-risk patients. This study aims to develop an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for predicting the onset of functional impairment in critically ill patients. Data for this study were sourced from a comprehensive hospital in China, focusing on adult patients admitted to the ICU from August 2022 to August 2023 without prior functional impairments. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model was utilized to select predictors for inclusion in the model. Four models, logistic regression, support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), were constructed and validated. Model performance was assessed using the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV). Additionally, the DALEX package was employed to enhance the interpretability of the final models. The study ultimately included 1,380 patients, with 684 (49.6%) exhibiting new-onset functional impairment on the seventh day after leaving the ICU. Among the four models evaluated, the SVM model demonstrated the best performance, with an AUC of 0.909, accuracy of 0.838, sensitivity of 0.902, specificity of 0.772, PPV of 0.802, and NPV of 0.886. ML models are reliable tools for predicting new-onset functional impairments in critically ill patients. Notably, the SVM model emerged as the most effective, enabling early identification of patients at high risk and facilitating the implementation of timely interventions to improve ADL.

Abstract
Objective to examine the relationship between physical rehabilitation parameters including a novel approach to quantifying dosage with hospital outcomes for patients with critical COVID-19. Design Retrospective practice analysis from March 5, 2020, to April 15, 2021. Setting Intensive care units (ICU) at four medical institutions. Patients n = 3,780 adults with ICU admission and diagnosis of COVID-19. Interventions We measured the physical rehabilitation treatment delivered in ICU and patient outcomes: 1) mortality; 2) discharge disposition; and 3) physical function at hospital discharge measured by the Activity Measure-Post Acute Care (AM-PAC) "6-Clicks" (6-24, 24=greater functional independence). Physical rehabilitation dosage was defined as the average mobility level scores in the first three sessions (a surrogate measure of intensity) multiplied by the rehabilitation frequency (PT + OT frequency in hospital). Measurements and Main Results The cohort was a mean 64 ± 16 years old, 41% female, mean BMI of 32 ± 9 kg/m2 and 46% (n=1739) required mechanical ventilation. For 2191 patients with complete data, rehabilitation dosage and AM-PAC at discharge were moderately, positively associated (Spearman's rho [r] = 0.484, p < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression (model adjusted R2= 0.68, p <0.001) demonstrates mechanical ventilation (β = -0.86, p = 0.001), average mobility score in first three sessions (β = 2.6, p <0.001) and physical rehabilitation dosage (β = 0.22, p = 0.001) were predictive of AM-PAC scores at discharge when controlling for age, sex, BMI, and ICU LOS. Conclusions Greater physical rehabilitation exposure early in the ICU is associated with physical function at hospital discharge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survivors of critical care are at risk of long-term disability from musculoskeletal (MSK) impairments. These can have a biopsychosocial impact on the patient and their families with a reduction in health-related quality of life, increased health care utilization, caregiving roles and associated psychological distress. AIMS To understand the experiences of patients living with MSK impairments following critical illness, and family and health care professionals supporting them, to inform the development of a future intervention to improve MSK health following critical illness. STUDY DESIGN A four-site qualitative case study approach will be taken, with each of the four hospital sites and associated community services representing a case site. We will conduct semi-structured interviews with 10-15 patients/family members and 10-15 health care professionals about their experiences of MSK impairment following critical illness. Interviews will be audio recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis within a descriptive phenomenological approach. Alongside interview data, analysis of publicly available policy documentation, patient-facing materials and information from service leads at the four sites will be conducted. Discourse analysis will be used for this case study documentation. RESULTS This protocol describes a qualitative study exploring the experiences of patients living with MSK impairments following critical illness, and the family and health care professionals supporting them. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Data analysis will illuminate their experiences and enable data richness to contribute to the qualitative body of evidence of intensive care unit (ICU) survivors. These findings will inform the development of a complex intervention for MSK rehabilitation after critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Critical illness significantly impacts the well-being of patients and families. Previous studies show that family members are willing to participate in patient care. Involving families in early mobility interventions may contribute to improved recovery and positive outcomes for patients and families. AIM In this scoping review, we investigated early mobility interventions for critically ill patients evaluated in randomized controlled trials and the extent to which family engagement in those interventions are reported in the literature. STUDY DESIGN In this scoping review of reviews, EMBASE, CINAHL, PubMed and Cochrane Central databases were searched in October 2019 and updated in February 2022. Systematic reviews were included and assessed using A MeaSurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) 2. Data were synthesized using a narrative approach. PRISMA-ScR guidelines were adhered to for reporting. RESULTS Thirty-three reviews were included which described a range of early mobility interventions for critically ill patients; none explicitly mentioned family engagement. Almost half of the reviews were of low or critically low quality. Insufficient detail of early mobility interventions prompted information to be extracted from the primary studies. CONCLUSIONS There are a range of early mobility interventions for critically ill patients but few involve families. Given the positive outcomes of family participation, and family willingness to participate in care, there is a need to explore the feasibility and acceptability of family participation in early mobility interventions. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Family engagement in early mobility interventions for critically ill patients should be encouraged and supported. How to best support family members and clinicians in enacting family involvement in early mobility requires further investigation.

Abstract
Importance Older adults with socioeconomic disadvantage develop a greater burden of disability after critical illness than those without socioeconomic disadvantage. The delivery of in-hospital rehabilitation that can mitigate functional decline may be influenced by social determinants of health (SDOH). Whether rehabilitation delivery differs by SDOH during critical illness hospitalization is not known. Objective To evaluate whether SDOH are associated with the delivery of skilled rehabilitation during critical illness hospitalization among older adults. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study used data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study linked with Medicare claims (2011-2018). Participants included older adults hospitalized with a stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). Data were analyzed from August 2022 to September 2023. Exposures Dual eligibility for Medicare and Medicaid, education, income, limited English proficiency (LEP), and rural residence. Main Outcome and Measures The primary outcome was delivery of physical therapy (PT) and/or occupational therapy (OT) during ICU hospitalization, characterized as any in-hospital PT or OT and rate of in-hospital PT or OT, calculated as total number of units divided by length of stay. Results In the sample of 1618 ICU hospitalizations (median [IQR] patient age, 81.0 [75.0-86.0] years; 842 [52.0%] female), 371 hospitalizations (22.9%) were among patients with dual Medicare and Medicaid eligibility, 523 hospitalizations (32.6%) were among patients with less than high school education, 320 hospitalizations (19.8%) were for patients with rural residence, and 56 hospitalizations (3.5%) were among patients with LEP. A total of 1076 hospitalized patients (68.5%) received any PT or OT, with a mean rate of 0.94 (95% CI, 0.86-1.02) units/d. After adjustment for age, sex, prehospitalization disability, mechanical ventilation, and organ dysfunction, factors associated with lower odds of receipt of PT or OT included dual Medicare and Medicaid eligibility (adjusted odds ratio, 0.70 [95% CI, 0.50-0.97]) and rural residence (adjusted odds ratio, 0.65 [95% CI, 0.48-0.87]). LEP was associated with a lower rate of PT or OT (adjusted rate ratio, 0.55 [95% CI, 0.32-0.94]). Conclusions and Relevance These findings highlight the need to consider SDOH in efforts to promote rehabilitation delivery during ICU hospitalization and to investigate factors underlying inequities in this practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize health-related quality of life (HRQL) and functional recovery trajectories and risk factors for prolonged impairments among critically ill children receiving greater than or equal to 3 days of invasive ventilation. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Quaternary children's hospital PICU. PATIENTS Children without a preexisting tracheostomy who received greater than or equal to 3 days of invasive ventilation, survived hospitalization, and completed greater than or equal to 1 postdischarge data collection. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We evaluated 144 children measuring HRQL using proxy-report Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory and functional status using the Functional Status Scale (FSS) reflecting preillness baseline, PICU and hospital discharge, and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after hospital discharge. They had a median age of 5.3 years (interquartile range, 1.1-13.0 yr), 58 (40%) were female, 45 (31%) had a complex chronic condition, and 110 (76%) had normal preillness FSS scores. Respiratory failure etiologies included lung disease ( n = 49; 34%), neurologic failure ( n = 23; 16%), and septic shock ( n = 22; 15%). At 1-month postdischarge, 68 of 122 (56%) reported worsened HRQL and 35 (29%) had a new functional impairment compared with preillness baseline. This improved at 3 months to 54 (46%) and 24 (20%), respectively, and remained stable through the remaining 9 months of follow-up. We used interaction forests to evaluate relative variable importance including pairwise interactions and found that therapy consultation within 3 days of intubation was associated with better HRQL recovery in older patients and those with better preillness physical HRQL. During the postdischarge year, 76 patients (53%) had an emergency department visit or hospitalization, and 62 (43%) newly received physical, occupational, or speech therapy. CONCLUSIONS Impairments in HRQL and functional status as well as health resource use were common among children with acute respiratory failure. Early therapy consultation was a modifiable characteristic associated with shorter duration of worsened HRQL in older patients.

Abstract
Physical therapy (PT) utilization in patients requiring mechanical circulatory support (MCS) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been reported; however, little is known about intensive rehabilitation and associated outcomes in patients requiring extended complex MCS and/or ECMO support. Authors sought to explore safety, feasibility and outcomes associated with active rehabilitation in patients requiring prolonged advanced MCS/ECMO support. Single-center retrospective series evaluated functional, clinical, and longitudinal outcomes of sample of eight critically ill, adult (≥18 years of age) patients who underwent a intensive rehabilitation while receiving prolonged MCS/ECMO through advanced configurations including: venovenous (VV-ECMO), venoarterial (VA-ECMO), oxygenator with right ventricular assist device (Oxy-RVAD) and right ventricular assist device (RVAD). 406 sessions were conducted; 246 during provision of advanced MCS/ECMO support. Incidence of major adverse events-accidental decannulation, migration of cannulas, circuit failure, hemorrhage, major flow limitations, and major hemodynamic instability-was 1.2 events per 100 sessions. None of reported major adverse events impeded longitudinal ability to participate in PT. Increased time to PT initiation was associated with a statistically significant increase in intensive care unit (ICU) length-of-stay (β1 1.93, CI 0.55-3.30) and reduced ambulatory distance during last session on MCS/ECMO (β1 -47.64, CI - 93.93, -1.66). All patients survived to hospital discharge and 12 months from sentinel hospitalization. Amongst those patients discharged to an inpatient rehabilitation center (n = 4), all were discharged home within 3 months. Findings support the safety and feasibility of active rehabilitational PT in patients requiring extended durations of advanced MCS/ECMO support. Moreover, it highlights potentially associated benefits of this degree of intensive rehabilitation for these unique patients. Further investigation is needed to identify associations with longitudinal clinical outcomes, as well as predictors of success in this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recent reviews demonstrated discordant effects of ICU-based physical rehabilitation on physical function. These inconsistencies may be related to differences in treatment fidelity-the extent to which a protocol is delivered as planned. Before evaluating the association of fidelity with outcomes, we must first understand the extent of treatment fidelity reporting in ICU-based physical rehabilitation randomized controlled trials (RCTs). DATA SOURCES Six electronic databases from inception to December 2022. STUDY SELECTION We included RCTs enrolling adults or children admitted to the ICU, if greater than or equal to 50% were invasively mechanically ventilated greater than 24 hours, and underwent an ICU-based physical rehabilitation intervention, with no limitation to comparators or outcomes. DATA EXTRACTION We screened and extracted data independently and in duplicate, with a third reviewer as needed. Extracted data included study characteristics, treatment descriptions, and the presence of National Institutes of Health Behaviour Change Consortium (NIH-BCC) treatment fidelity tool components. Treatment fidelity scores were calculated as the proportion of reported (numerator) out of total NIH-BCC components (denominator). We calculated scores across studies and by treatment group (intervention vs. comparator). We used linear regression to assess for a time trend in study treatment fidelity scores. DATA SYNTHESIS Of 20,433 citations, 94 studies met inclusion criteria. Authors reported a median (first-third quartiles) of 19% (14-26%) of treatment fidelity components across studies. Intervention group scores were higher than comparator groups (24% [19-33%] vs. 14% [5-24%], p < 0.01). We found a mean increase in study treatment fidelity scores by 0.7% (0.3 points) per year. CONCLUSIONS Only 19% of treatment fidelity components were reported across studies, with comparator groups more poorly reported. Future research could investigate ways to optimize treatment fidelity reporting and determine characteristics associated with treatment fidelity conduct in ICU-based physical rehabilitation RCTs.

Feasibility of Combining Functional Mobilisation with Resistance and Endurance Training for Mechanically Ventilated Patients in Intensive Care Unit Setting-A Pilot Study. J Clin Med 2024; 13:2412. [PMID: 38673684 PMCID: PMC11051037 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13082412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Intensive-care-acquired weakness resulting in functional impairment is common in critical care survivors. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of a combined early functional training with endurance and resistance training and its effect on the functional outcome. Methods: It is a pilot study performed in a 39-bed Medical and Surgical Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Patients who were premorbidly independent and were mechanically ventilated for ≥24 h were recruited to receive functional mobilisation (sit out of bed, ambulation), endurance (bed cycling), and resistance training (selected upper and lower limb muscle training using weights). The primary outcomes were feasibility of training, muscle strength, handgrip strength, quadricep strength, and Functional Status Score-Intensive Care Unit (FSS-ICU) collected at the first assessment in the ICU, at the ICU discharge, and at hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes were functional capacity (6-Minute Walk Distance) and quality of life measures, EQ-5D, at hospital discharge and at 3 months. Results: Out of the 11 patients, 6 (54.54%) patients achieved level 2 functional mobilisation, 2 (18.18%) patients achieved level 2 resistance training, and 1 (9.09%) patient achieved level 2 endurance training. There were no significant differences in the medical research council (MRC) score, quadricep strength, and handgrip strength between the first assessment in the ICU, at the ICU discharge, and at hospital discharge. However, there was a significant difference in FSS_ICU (p < 0.008) from the first assessment in the ICU up to hospital discharge. EQ-5D visual analogue scale also showed a change of 8.5% at 3-month follow-up. 6MWD showed significant difference (p < 0.043) at 3-month follow-up compared to that at hospital discharge. Conclusions: The study found low compliance to resistance and endurance training in patients with mechanical ventilation. However, functional mobilisation in terms of sit out of bed was possible in more than half of the recruited patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current information on the latest rehabilitative practices is limited, with previous reviews only covering data up to October 2021, and some considering only patients on awake ECMO or with COVID-19. This review aims to present a concise overview of the latest findings on rehabilitation and highlight emerging trends for patients undergoing ECMO support. METHODS This integrative review was conducted by searching the National Library of Medicine - PubMed database. Two different search strings "extracorporeal membrane oxygenation" AND "rehabilitation" and "extracorporeal membrane oxygenation" AND "physiotherapy" were used to search the published literature. Articles that did not describe rehabilitation techniques, editorials, conference proceedings, letters to editor, reviews and research protocols were excluded. Studies conducted on pediatric populations were also excluded. The search process was completed in December 2023. RESULTS Thirteen articles were included in the final analysis. Eight hundred and thirty-nine patients aged between 27 and 63 years were included; 428 were men (51%). In 31% of the included studies, patients had COVID-19; nevertheless, rehabilitative activities did not differ from non-COVID-19 patients. In most studies, rehabilitation commenced within the first 48-96 h and consisted of progressive exercise and out-of-bed activities such as sitting, standing and walking. CONCLUSION Current practice focuses on rehabilitative protocols that incorporate exercise routines with progressive intensity, greater emphasis on out-of-bed activities, and a multidisciplinary approach to patient mobilization.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there was scarce data about clinical/functional conditions during hospitalization or after hospital discharge. Little was known about COVID-19 repercussions and how to do early mobilization in intensive care unit (ICU). OBJECTIVE Identify the time to the initiation of out-of-bed mobilization and the levels of mobility (sitting over the edge of the bed, sitting in a chair, standing, and ambulating) reached by critically ill patients with COVID-19 during hospitalization and the factors that could impact early mobilization. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study of patients with COVID-19 in the ICU. RESULTS There were 157 surviving COVID-19 patients included in the study (median age: 61 years; median ICU length of stay: 12 days). The median time to initiate out-of-bed mobilization in the ICU was 6 days; between patients who received mechanical ventilation (MV) compared with those who did not, this time was 8 vs. 2.5 days (p < .001). Most patients who used MV were mobilized after extubation (79.6%). During ICU stays, 88.0% of all patients were mobilized out of bed, and 41.0% were able to ambulate either with assistance or independently. The time to initiate out-of-bed mobilization is associated with sedation time and MV time. CONCLUSION Despite the pandemic scenario, patients were quickly mobilized out of bed, and most of the patients achieved higher mobility levels in the ICU and at hospital discharge. Sedation time and MV time were associated with delays in initiating mobilization.

Abstract
Depending on the definitional criteria used, approximately 5% to 10% of critical adults will require prolonged mechanical ventilation with longer-term outcomes that are worse than those ventilated for a shorter duration. Outcomes are affected by patient characteristics before critical illness and its severity but also by organizational characteristics and care models. Definitive trials of interventions to inform care activities, such as ventilator weaning, upper airway management, rehabilitation, and nutrition specific to the prolonged mechanical ventilation patient population, are lacking. A structured and individualized approach developed by the multiprofessional team in discussion with the patient and their family is warranted.

Abstract
Post-intensive care unit (ICU) syndrome may occur after ICU treatment and includes ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW), cognitive decline, and mental problems. ICU-AW is muscle weakness in patients treated in the ICU and is affected by the period of mechanical ventilation. Diaphragmatic weakness may also occur because of respiratory muscle unloading using mechanical ventilators. ICU-AW is an independent predictor of mortality and is associated with longer duration of mechanical ventilation and hospital stay. Diaphragm weakness is also associated with poor outcomes. Therefore, pulmonary rehabilitation with early mobilization and respiratory muscle training is necessary in the ICU after appropriate patient screening and evaluation and can improve ICU-related muscle weakness and functional deterioration.

Abstract
Early mobilization therapy has emerged as a crucial aspect of intensive care unit (ICU) management, aiming to counteract the detrimental effects of prolonged immobility in critically ill patients. This comprehensive review examines the efficacy of early mobilization therapy in the ICU setting, synthesizing evidence from clinical trials, meta-analyses, and guidelines. Key findings indicate that early mobilization is associated with numerous benefits, including reduced muscle weakness, a shorter duration of mechanical ventilation, decreased ICU and hospital length of stay, and improved functional outcomes. However, safety concerns, staffing limitations, and patient-specific considerations pose significant barriers to widespread adoption. Despite these challenges, early mobilization is important for improving ICU patient outcomes. This review underscores the critical need for continued research and implementation efforts to optimize early mobilization protocols, address remaining challenges, and expand access to this beneficial therapy. By working collaboratively to overcome barriers and prioritize early mobilization, healthcare providers can enhance the quality of care and improve outcomes for critically ill patients in the ICU.

Abstract
Objective Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness often occurs in patients with invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Early active mobility may reduce ICU-acquired weakness, improve functional status, and reduce disability. The aim of this study was to investigate whether high-intensity early mobility improves post-ICU discharge functional status of IMV patients. Methods 132 adult patients in the ICU who were undergoing IMV were randomly assigned into two groups with a ratio of 1 : 1, with one group received high-intensity early mobility (intervention group, IG), while the other group received conventional treatment (control group, CG). The functional status (Barthel Index (BI)), capacity of mobility (Perme score and ICU Mobility Scale (IMS)), muscle strength (Medical Research Council sum scores (MRC-SS)), mortality, complication, length of ICU stay, and duration of IMV were evaluated at ICU discharge or after 3-month of ICU discharge. Results The patient's functional status was improved (BI scores 90.6 ± 18.0 in IG vs. 77.7 ± 27.9 in CG; p=0.005), and capacity of mobility was increased (Perme score 17.6 ± 7.1 in IG vs. 12.2 ± 8.5 in CG, p < 0.001; IMS 4.7 ± 2.6 in IG vs. 3.0 ± 2.6 in CG, p < 0.001). The IG had a higher muscle strength and lower incidence of ICU-acquired weakness (ICUAW) than that in the CG. The incidence of mortality and delirium was also lower than CG at ICU discharge. However, there were no differences in terms of length of ICU stay, duration of IMV, ventilator-associated pneumonia, and venous thrombosis. Conclusions High-intensity early mobility improved the patient's functional status and increased capacity of mobility with IMV. The benefits to functional status remained after 3 month of ICU discharge. Other benefits included higher muscle strength, lower incidence of ICUAW, mortality, and delirium in IG.

Abstract
Many meta-analyses have assessed the efficacy of preventive interventions against ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critically ill patients. However, there has been no comprehensive analysis of the strength and quality of evidence to date. Systematic reviews of randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials, which evaluated the effect of preventive strategies on the incidence of VAP in critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation for at least 48 h, were included in this article. We identified a total of 34 interventions derived from 31 studies. Among these interventions, 19 resulted in a significantly reduced incidence of VAP. Among numerous strategies, only selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) was supported by highly suggestive (Class II) evidence (risk ratio (RR)=0.439, 95% CI: 0.362-0.532). Based on data from the sensitivity analysis, the evidence for the efficacy of non-invasive ventilation in weaning from mechanical ventilation (NIV) was upgraded from weak (Class IV) to highly suggestive (Class II) (RR=0.32, 95% CI: 0.22-0.46). All preventive interventions were not supported by robust evidence for reducing mortality. Early mobilization exhibited suggestive (Class III) evidence in shortening both intensive length of stay (LOS) in the intensive care unit (ICU) (mean difference (MD)=-0.85, 95% CI: -1.21 to -0.49) and duration of mechanical ventilation (MD=-1.02, 95% CI: -1.41 to -0.63). In conclusion, SDD and NIV are supported by robust evidence for prevention against VAP, while early mobilization has been shown to significantly shorten the LOS in the ICU and the duration of mechanical ventilation. These three strategies are recommendable for inclusion in the ventilator bundle to lower the risk of VAP and improve the prognosis of critically ill patients.

Abstract
Assessing functional motor changes and their relationship to discharge needs in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) population is difficult given challenges quantifying small functional gains with current tools. Therefore, we compared the Physical Abilities and Mobility Scale (PAMS) to the Functional Status Scale (FSS) in PICU patients to assess correlation and differences and association with discharge needs. This study was a retrospective chart review of all patients (2-18 years old) admitted to the PICU and cardiac PICU for over 9 months who received early mobility services, including PAMS and FSS scoring. Correlation between scales, relationship of scores to disposition, and logistic regression model of changes in PAMS in relation to disposition were determined. Data were obtained for 122 patients. PAMS and FSS scores strongly negatively correlated (Spearman's ρ = - 0.85), but with a nonlinear relationship, as the PAMS more readily differentiated among patients with higher functional status. The median FSS at discharge was 12.5 for those recommended an inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) ( n = 24), versus 9 for those recommended discharge home ( n = 83, Δ 3.5, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1-6, around one-tenth of FSS scale). The corresponding median PAMS were 42 and 66 (Δ 24, 95% CI: 10-30, one-fourth of PAMS scale). Although not statistically significant, a logistic regression model was consistent with patients who showed modest change in PAMS across hospitalization but persistent deficits (PAMS < 60) were more likely to be recommended an IRF. The PAMS correlates to the FSS, but appears more sensitive to small functional changes, especially in higher functioning patients. It may be useful in prognosticating discharge needs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical guidelines recommend early mobilization and rehabilitation (EMR) for patients who are critically ill. However, various barriers impede its implementation in real-world clinical settings. In 2018, the Japanese universal healthcare coverage system announced a unique financial incentive scheme to facilitate EMR for patients in intensive care units (ICU). This study evaluated whether such an incentive improved patients' activities of daily living (ADL) and reduced their hospital length of stay (LOS). METHODS Using the national inpatient database in Japan, we identified patients admitted to the ICU, who stayed over 48 hours between April 2017 and March 2019. The financial incentive required medical institutions to form a multidisciplinary team approach for EMR, development and periodic review of the standardized rehabilitation protocol, starting rehabilitation within 2 days of ICU admission. The incentive amounted to 34.6 United States Dollars per patient per day with limit 14 days, structured as a per diem payment. Hospitals were not mandated to provide detailed information on individual rehabilitation for government, and the insurer made payments directly to the hospitals based on their claims. Exposure was the introduction of the financial incentive defined as the first day of claim by each hospital. We conducted an interrupted time-series analysis to assess the impact of the financial incentive scheme. Multivariable radon-effects regression and Tobit regression analysis were performed with random intercept for the hospital of admission. RESULTS A total of 33,568 patients were deemed eligible. We confirmed that the basic assumption of ITS was fulfilled. The financial incentive was associated with an improvement in the Barthel index at discharge (0.44 points change in trend per month; 95% confidence interval = 0.20-0.68) and shorter hospital LOS (- 0.66 days change in trend per month; 95% confidence interval = - 0.88 - -0.44). The sensitivity and subgroup analyses showed consistent results. CONCLUSIONS The study suggests a potential association between the financial incentive for EMR in ICU patients and improved outcomes. This incentive scheme may provide a unique solution to EMR barrier in practice, however, caution is warranted in interpreting these findings due to recent changes in ICU care practices.

Early mobilisation within 72 hours after admission of critically ill patients in the intensive care unit: A systematic review with network meta-analysis. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 80:103573. [PMID: 37948898 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2023.103573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early mobilisation within 72 hours of intensive care unit admission counteracts complications caused by critical illness. The effect of different interventions on intensive care unit length of stay and other outcomes is unclear. We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of various early mobilisation interventions within 72 hours of admission to the intensive care unit on length of stay and other outcomes. METHODS A systematic review and (network) meta-analysis examining the effect of early mobilisation on length of stay in the intensive care unit and other outcomes, conducting searches in four databases. Randomised controlled trials were included from inception to 10/08/2022. Early mobilisation was defined as interventions that initiates and/or supports passive/active range-of-motion exercises within 72 hours of admission. In multi-arm studies, interventions used in other studies were declared as early intervention and were included in subgroup meta-analysis. Risk-of-bias was assessed using RoB2. RESULTS Of 29,680 studies screened, 18 studies with 1923 patients (three high, eleven some, four low risk-of-bias) and seven discriminable interventions of early mobilisation met inclusion criteria. Early mobilisation alone (WMD 0.78 days, 95 %CI [-1.38;-0.18], 11 studies, n = 1124) and early mobilisation with early nutrition (WMD -1.19 days, 95 %CI [-2.34;-0.03], 1 study, n = 100) were able to significantly shorten length of stay. Early mobilisation alone could also substantially shorten hospital length of stay (WMD -1.05 days, 95 %CI [-1.74;-0.36], 8 studies, n = 977). This effect in hospital length of stay was furthermore seen in the early intervention group compared with standard care (WMD -1.71 days, 95 %CI [-2.99;-0.43], 14 studies, n = 1587). Also, functionality and quality of life could significantly be improved by an early start of mobilisation. CONCLUSION In the network meta-analysis, early mobilisation alone and early mobilisation with early nutrition demonstrated a significant effect on intensive care length of stay. Early mobilisation could also reduce hospital length of stay and positively influence functionality and quality of life. IMPLICATION FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE Early mobilisation and early mobilisation with early nutrition seemed to be beneficial compared to other interventions like cycling on intensive care length of stay.

Arch Phys Med Rehabil 2024; 105:243-250. [PMID: 37429536 DOI: 10.1016/j.apmr.2023.06.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify differences in perceived barriers to patient mobilization in acute care among therapy and nursing clinicians, and among hospitals of different sizes and types. DESIGN Cross-sectional survey study. SETTING Eight hospitals of various sizes and types (teaching vs non-teaching; urban vs rural), from 2 different states in the Western region of the United States. PARTICIPANTS A nonprobability sample of 568 acute care clinicians (N=586) involved in direct patient care were surveyed. Clinicians indicated a clinical role within the branch of therapy (physical therapy or occupational therapy) or nursing (registered nurse or nurse assistant). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The Patient Mobilization Attitudes and Beliefs Survey (PMABS) was used to assess perceived barriers to early patient mobilization among therapy and nursing staff. A PMABS total score and 3 subscale scores (knowledge, attitudes, or behaviors associated with barriers to mobilization) were calculated, with higher scores indicative of greater mobilization barriers. RESULTS Mean PMABS total scores were significantly lower (better) for therapy providers (24.63±6.67) than nursing providers (38.12±10.95), P<.001. Additionally, therapy providers had significantly lower scores than nursing providers on all 3 subscales (all P<.001). Item-specific analyses revealed significant differences in responses between therapy and nursing staff on 22 of 25 items, with nursing staff indicating greater perceptions of barriers than therapy staff on 20 of the 22 items. The top 5 items with the largest response differences between therapy and nursing clinicians included adequate time to mobilize patients, understanding appropriate referral to therapy staff, knowledge on when it is safe to mobilize patients, confidence in the ability to mobilize patients, and receiving training on methods of safe mobilization. While hospital type did not affect perceived barriers to early mobilization, PMABS scores were significantly higher for large and small hospitals when compared to medium-sized hospitals. CONCLUSION Perceived barriers to patient mobilization exist among therapy and nursing acute care clinicians, with greater barriers noted among nursing staff for knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors associated with patient mobility practices. Findings suggest future work is warranted, with opportunities for therapy providers to collaborate with nursing providers to address barriers to implementing patient mobility.

Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 80:103556. [PMID: 37793317 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2023.103556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To gain insight into the interaction between nurses and patients in early rehabilitation and the role of patient participation in this context. RESEARCH DESIGN AND SETTING A qualitative study with a phenomenological-hermeneutic approach was conducted in two units/hospitals from January 2022 to January 2023, utilizing observations and video recordings of eight nurse/patient dyads combined with post observation interviews with the nurses. The study was analysed by systematic text condensation and video analysis, informed by interaction theory. FINDINGS Two contrasting categories emerged: 1) Absent invitations: the nurse performed procedures without involving the patient; in other situations, the nurse informed the patient without requesting participation. Simultaneously, spontaneous patient movements were not acknowledged by the nurse. The nurses explained that this practice occurred due to time pressure, oversights, a lack of belief regarding patients' capacities, the unit's culture and little training. 2) Invitations that strengthened participation: the nurse verbally requested activity that often resulted in an inadequate response, or bodily extended invitations that sometimes led to joint active movement. Patients were the most active participants when nurses combined verbal prompts, eye contact, physical handling, and dialogue. In the interviews, the nurses emphasized giving patients enough time to participate and repeatedly encouraged participation because the patient's condition and capacity constantly fluctuated. CONCLUSION Interactions that combine verbal and bodily invitations appear crucial for patient participation in early rehabilitation in the intensive care unit, emphasizing the importance of integrated tailored bodily communication. The nurses' lack of insight into and attention to the patient's bodily potential for active movement combined with a paternalistic approach to the patient's situation may hinder patients' active participation. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE Integrated forms of interaction that explore patients' capacity and potential for participation should be employed in line with verbal communication. Developing competence in early rehabilitation should be emphasized in critical care nurses' education and training.

Abstract
Early mobilization of hospitalized patients is beneficial under certain circumstances. This has been applied in clinical practice for patients with acute heart failure (HF). However, its current definition, effectiveness, and safety are not well established. This review aimed to clarify the current definition of "early mobilization," and summarize its effectiveness and safety in acute HF. We conducted a scoping review to define early mobilization (Part 1) and a systematic review and meta-analysis (Part 2) to evaluate its effectiveness and safety. For Part 1, we searched MEDLINE (Ovid), and for Part 2, we searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (ProQuest Dialog), CINAHL, and PEDro. We included 12 studies in Part 1 and defined early mobilization as protocol-based interventions or walking within 3 days of admission. Based on this definition, two observational studies were included in Part 2, with no randomized controlled trials. Early mobilization may result in a large reduction in the readmission rate compared with that of the control (two studies, 283 participants: odds ratio 0.25, 95 % confidence interval 0.14 to 0.42; I2 = 0 %; low certainty evidence). We could not define frequency, intensity, or quantity because many of the included studies did not describe them. In conclusions, our review suggests that early mobilization, defined as protocol-based interventions or walking within 3 days of admission, may be associated with a low readmission rate in patients with acute HF. Future studies are essential, to investigate the causal relationship between early mobilization and possible outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Mobilisation is a common intervention in Intensive Care (ICU). However, few studies have explored the relationship between mobility levels and outcomes. This study assessed the association of the level of mobility on ICU discharge with discharge destination from the hospital and hospital length of stay. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of data from 522 patients admitted to a single UK general ICU who were ventilated for ≥5 days was performed. The level of mobility was assessed using the Manchester Mobility Score (MMS). Multivariable regression analysed demographic and clinical variables for the independence of association with discharge destination and hospital length of stay. RESULTS MMS ≥5 on ICU discharge was independently associated with discharge destination and hospital LOS (p < 0.001). Patients achieving MMS ≥5 on ICU discharge were more likely to be discharged home (OR 3.86 95% CI 2.1 to 6.9, p < 0.001), and had an 11.8 day shorter hospital LOS (95% CI -17.6 to -6.1, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The ability to step transfer to a chair (MMS ≥5) before ICU discharge was independently associated with discharge to usual residence and hospital LOS, irrespective of preadmission morbidity. Increasing the level of patient mobility at ICU discharge should be a key focus of rehabilitation interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of early mobilization within 48 h of injury on motor function and walking ability in patients with incomplete cervical spinal cord injury (SCI). DESIGN A retrospective observational study. SETTING Intensive care unit or high care unit of a university hospital emergency center. PARTICIPANTS Of 224 patients with SCI having American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale grades C and D, 158 consecutive patients hospitalized for at least 3 weeks after injury were included. INTERVENTIONS Patients were categorized into two groups: an early mobilization group in which patients were mobilized within 48 h of injury and a delayed mobilization group in which they were mobilized after 48 h of injury. OUTCOME MEASURES The upper extremity motor score (UEMS), lower extremity motor score (LEMS), and Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury II (WISCI II) were compared using propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS Of the 158 patients who met the eligibility criteria, 32 were matched between the groups. There was a significant difference in the change in LEMS from the initial assessment to the assessment 2 weeks postoperatively in the early mobilization group (median 9 points vs. 3 points, p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in UEMS or WISCI II. CONCLUSION Early mobilization within 48 h may improve lower extremity motor function in patients with acute incomplete cervical SCI.

Abstract
Despite increasing early rehabilitation and mobilisation (ERM) in paediatric intensive care, current evidence for ERM of neonatal and paediatric patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is limited. The proposed benefits of ERM in neonatal and paediatric ECMO patients are multifaceted, including reduced immobility related issues and maintenance of functional ability. However, ECMO presents additional safety and logistical challenges, and currently there are no published neonatal or paediatric guidelines. A consensus document was developed to provide guidance for ERM with neonatal and paediatric ECMO patients. The document was developed by specialist physiotherapists from nine ECMO centres within the UK and Ireland, together with the UK Paediatric Critical Care Society ECMO group and members of the multidisciplinary team. The document covers key considerations and practicalities for completing ERM in this population including, acuity level measurement, activity level guidance, safety and risk assessment, and goal setting. Risk assessment and safety checklist bedside tools are also included and designed to be adapted as required to meet specific unit policies and protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) continues to play an essential role in organ support in cardiogenic shock or acute respiratory distress syndrome and bridging to transplantation. The main purpose of the present survey was to define which clinical and organizational practices are adopted for the administration of physiotherapy in adult patients undergoing ECMO support worldwide. METHODS This international survey was conceived in November 2021. The survey launch was announced at the 10th EuroELSO (European ELSO chapter) Congress, London, May 2022. RESULTS The survey returned 32 questionnaires from 29 centers across 14 countries. 17 centers (53.1%) had more than 30 intensive care unit beds available and most (46.8%) were able to care for five to 10 patients on extracorporeal life support simultaneously. The predominant physiotherapist-to-patient ratio was 1:>5 (37.5%); physiotherapy was available 5/7 days and 7/7 days by 31.2% and 25% respectively. Respiratory physiotherapy was not defined by a specific protocol in most centers (46.8%) while 31.2% declared that the treatment commences less than 12 h after sedation is stopped/reduced. Mostly, early physiotherapy in non-cooperative ventilated patients was provided within the first 48 h (68.6%) and consisted of as passive range of motion, in-bed positioning, and splinting. Postural passages and sitting were provided to patients and walking was included in those advanced motor activities which are part of the treatment. CONCLUSION Physiotherapy in patients on ECLS is feasible, however substantial variability exists between centers with a trend of delivering not protocolized and understaffed rehabilitation practices.

Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is a common complication in critically ill patients and is associated with a variety of adverse outcomes. These include the need for prolonged mechanical ventilation and ICU stay; higher ICU, in-hospital, and 1-year mortality; and increased in-hospital costs. ICU-AW is associated with multiple risk factors including age, underlying disease, severity of illness, organ failure, sepsis, immobilization, receipt of mechanical ventilation, and other factors related to critical care. The pathological mechanism of ICU-AW remains unclear and may be considerably varied. This review aimed to evaluate recent insights into ICU-AW from several aspects including risk factors, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment strategies; this provides new perspectives for future research.

Abstract
Patients with critical illnesses are at higher risk of comorbidities, which can include bone mineral density loss, bone turnover marker increase, and fragility fractures. Patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) have a higher risk of bone fractures. Since hypermetabolism is a characteristic of ICU patients, such patients are often rapidly affected by systemic deterioration, which often results in systemic wasting disease. Major risk factors for ICU-related bone loss include physical restraint, inflammation, neuroendocrine stress, malnutrition, and medications. A medical history of critical illness should be acknowledged as a risk factor for impaired bone metabolism. Bone loss associated with ICU admission should be recognized as a key component of post-intensive care syndrome, and further research that focuses on treatment protocols and prevention strategies is required. Studies aimed at maintaining gut integrity have emphasized protein administration and nutrition, while research is ongoing to evaluate the therapeutic benefits of anti-resorptive agents and physical therapy. This review examines both current and innovative clinical strategies that are used for identifying risk factors of bone loss. It provides an overview of perioperative outcomes and discusses the emerging novel treatment modalities. Furthermore, the review presents future directions in the treatment of ICU-related bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mobilization in the intensive care unit (ICU) has the potential to improve patient outcomes following acute stroke. The optimal duration and intensity of mobilization for patients with hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke in the ICU remain unclear. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of mobilization dose in the ICU on adverse discharge disposition in patients after stroke. DESIGN This is an international, prospective, observational cohort study of critically ill stroke patients (November 2017-September 2019). Duration and intensity of mobilization was quantified daily by the mobilization quantification score (MQS). SETTING Patients requiring ICU-level care were enrolled within 48 hours of admission at four separate academic medical centers (two in Europe, two in the United States). PARTICIPANTS Participants included individuals (>18 years old) admitted to an ICU within 48 hours of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke onset who were functionally independent at baseline. INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The primary outcome was adverse discharge disposition. RESULTS Of the patients screened, 163 were eligible for inclusion in the study. One patient was subsequently excluded due to insufficient data collection (n = 162). The dose of mobilization varied greatly between centers and patients, which could not be explained by patients' comorbidities or disease severity. High dose of mobilization (mean MQS > 7.3) was associated with a lower likelihood of adverse discharge (adjusted odds ratio, [aOR]: 0.14; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.06-0.31; p < .01). CONCLUSION The increased use of mobilization acutely in the ICU setting may improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the occurrence of incidents and sudden deteriorations during rehabilitation in an acute care setting by disease category based on the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting University hospital in Japan with 1376 beds. Participants A total of 49,927 patients who were admitted to the acute care wards and underwent rehabilitation over 8 years, from April 1, 2013, to March 31, 2021. Interventions Rehabilitation in an acute care setting. Main Outcome Measures Incidents and sudden deteriorations reported in medical charts. Results Among 49,927 admissions, 455 incidents and 683 sudden deteriorations occurred during rehabilitation. The incidents and sudden deteriorations occurred at rates of 0.009/person (0.50 case/1000 h) and 0.012/person (0.75 case/1000 h), respectively. The 3 most frequent incidents were "route-related incidents" (178 cases, 39.1%), followed by "bleeding/abrasions" (131 cases, 28.8%) and "falls" (125 cases, 27.5%). Among 12 disease categories with over 500 admissions and 10,000 rehabilitation hours, the highest incident rate occurred in "certain infectious and parasitic diseases" (0.81 case/1000 h), followed by "diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue" (0.67 case/1000 h) and "diseases of the genitourinary system" (0.66 case/1000 h). The commonest sudden deterioration was "vomiting" (460 cases, 67.3%), followed by "decreased level of consciousness (with reduced blood pressure)" (42 cases, 6.1%) and "seizure" (39 cases, 5.7%). Furthermore, the highest sudden deterioration rate was in the "endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases" (1.19 case/1000 h) category, followed by "neoplasms" (1.04 case/1000 h) and "certain infectious and parasitic diseases" (0.99 case/1000 h). Conclusions An incident and sudden deterioration occurred every 2000 and 1333 h, respectively, during rehabilitation. Therefore, understanding the actual occurrence of incidents and sudden deteriorations during rehabilitation may provide valuable insights into preventing incidents and emergencies.

Abstract
Objective To determine whether age, mobility level, and change in mobility level across the first 3 physical rehabilitation sessions associate with clinical outcomes of patients who are critically ill. Design Retrospective, observational cohort study. Setting Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU). Participants Hospitalized adults (n = 132) who received 3 or more, consecutive rehabilitation sessions in the MICU. Interventions Not applicable. Measurements and Main Results Sample included 132 patients with 60 (45%) classified as younger (18-59 years) and 72 (55%) as older (60+ years). The most common diagnosis was sepsis/septicemia (32.6%). Older relative to younger patients had a significantly slower rate of improvement in ICU Mobility Scale (IMS) scores across rehabilitation sessions (mean slope coefficient 0.3 vs 0.6 points, P<.001), were less likely to be discharged to home (30.6% vs 55.0%, P=.005), and were more likely to die within 12 months (41.7% vs 25.0%, P=.046). Covariate-adjusted models indicated greater early improvement in IMS scores were associated with discharge home (P=.005). Longer time to first rehabilitation session, lower initial IMS scores, and slower improvement in IMS scores were associated with increased ICU days (all P<.03). Conclusion Older age and not achieving the mobility milestone of sitting at edge of bed or limited progression of mobility across sessions is associated with poor patient outcomes. Our findings suggest that age and mobility level contribute to outcome prognostication, and can aide in clinical phenotyping and rehabilitative service allocation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association between the mobilization level during intensive care unit (ICU) admission and independence in activity of daily living (ADL), defined as Barthel Index (BI)≥70. METHODS This was a post-hoc analysis of the EMPICS study involving nine hospitals. Consecutive patients who spend >48 hours in the ICU were eligible for inclusion. Mobilization was performed at each hospital according to the shared protocol and the highest ICU mobility score (IMS) during the ICU stay, baseline characteristics, and BI at hospital discharge. Multiple logistic regression analysis, adjusted for baseline characteristics, was used to deter-mine the association between the highest IMS (using the receiver operating characteristic [ROC]) and ADL. RESULTS Of the 203 patients, 143 were assigned to the ADL independence group and 60 to the ADL dependence group. The highest IMS score was significantly higher in the ADL independence group than in the dependence group and was a predictor of ADL independence at hospital discharge (odds ratio, 1.22; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-1.38; adjusted p=0.002). The ROC cutoff value for the highest IMS was 6 (specificity, 0.67; sensitivity, 0.70; area under the curve, 0.69). CONCLUSION These results indicate that, in patients who were in the ICU for more than 48 hours, that patients with good function in the ICU also exhibit good function upon discharge. However, prospective, multicenter trials are needed to confirm this conclusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the impact of duration of early mobilisation on survivors of critical illness. The hypothesis was that interventions lasting over 40 min, as per the German guideline, positively affect the functional status at ICU discharge. METHODS Prospective single-centre cohort study conducted in two ICUs in Germany. In 684 critically ill patients surviving an ICU stay > 24 h, out-of-bed mobilisation of more than 40 min was evaluated. RESULTS Daily mobilisation ≥ 40 min was identified as an independent predictor of an improved functional status upon ICU discharge. This effect on the primary outcome measure, change of Mobility-Barthel until ICU discharge, was observed in three different models for baseline patient characteristics (average treatment effect (ATE), all three models p < 0.001). When mobilisation parameters like level of mobilisation, were included in the analysis, the average treatment effect disappeared [ATE 1.0 (95% CI - 0.4 to 2.4), p = 0.16]. CONCLUSIONS A mobilisation duration of more than 40 min positively impacts functional outcomes at ICU discharge. However, the maximum level achieved during ICU stay was the most crucial factor regarding adequate dosage, as higher duration did not show an additional benefit in patients with already high mobilisation levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early mobilisation (EM) is an intervention that may improve the outcome of critically ill patients. There is limited data on EM in COVID-19 patients and its use during the first pandemic wave. METHODS This is a pre-planned subanalysis of the ESICM UNITE-COVID, an international multicenter observational study involving critically ill COVID-19 patients in the ICU between February 15th and May 15th, 2020. We analysed variables associated with the initiation of EM (within 72 h of ICU admission) and explored the impact of EM on mortality, ICU and hospital length of stay, as well as discharge location. Statistical analyses were done using (generalised) linear mixed-effect models and ANOVAs. RESULTS Mobilisation data from 4190 patients from 280 ICUs in 45 countries were analysed. 1114 (26.6%) of these patients received mobilisation within 72 h after ICU admission; 3076 (73.4%) did not. In our analysis of factors associated with EM, mechanical ventilation at admission (OR 0.29; 95% CI 0.25, 0.35; p = 0.001), higher age (OR 0.99; 95% CI 0.98, 1.00; p ≤ 0.001), pre-existing asthma (OR 0.84; 95% CI 0.73, 0.98; p = 0.028), and pre-existing kidney disease (OR 0.84; 95% CI 0.71, 0.99; p = 0.036) were negatively associated with the initiation of EM. EM was associated with a higher chance of being discharged home (OR 1.31; 95% CI 1.08, 1.58; p = 0.007) but was not associated with length of stay in ICU (adj. difference 0.91 days; 95% CI - 0.47, 1.37, p = 0.34) and hospital (adj. difference 1.4 days; 95% CI - 0.62, 2.35, p = 0.24) or mortality (OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.7, 1.09, p = 0.24) when adjusted for covariates. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that a quarter of COVID-19 patients received EM. There was no association found between EM in COVID-19 patients' ICU and hospital length of stay or mortality. However, EM in COVID-19 patients was associated with increased odds of being discharged home rather than to a care facility. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04836065 (retrospectively registered April 8th 2021).

Tonna JE, Bailey M, Abrams D, Brodie D, Hodgson CL. Predictors of early mobilization in patients requiring VV ECMO for greater than 7 days: An international cohort study. Heart Lung 2023; 62:57-63. [PMID: 37311360 PMCID: PMC10592536 DOI: 10.1016/j.hrtlng.2023.05.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the demonstrated benefits of rehabilitation, active physical therapy and early mobilization are not universally performed during critical illness, especially among patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), with variation among sites. OBJECTIVE What factors are predictive of physical mobility during venovenous (VV) ECMO support? METHODS We performed an observational analysis of an international cohort using data from the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) Registry. We analyzed adults (≥18 years) supported with VV ECMO who survived for at least 7 days. Our primary outcome was early mobilization (ICU Mobility Scale score >0) at day 7 of ECMO support. Hierarchical multivariable logistic regression models were utilized to identify factors independently associated with early mobilization at day 7 of ECMO. Results are reported as adjusted odds ratios (aOR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). RESULTS Among 8,160 unique VV ECMO patients, factors independently associated with early mobilization included cannulation for transplantation (aOR 2.86 [95% CI 2.08-3.92]; p<0.001), avoidance of mechanical ventilation (aOR 0.51 [95% CI 0.41-0.64]; p<0.0001), higher center level patient volume (6-20 patients annually: aOR 1.49 [95% CI 1 to 2.23] and >20 patients annually: aOR 2 [95% CI: 1.37 to 2.93]; p<0.0001 for group), and cannulation with a dual-lumen cannula (aOR 1.25 [95% CI 1.08-1.42]; p = 0.0018). Early mobilization was associated with a lower probability of death (29 vs 48%; p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Higher levels of early mobilization on ECMO were associated modifiable and non-modifiable patient characteristics, including cannulation with a dual-lumen cannula, and with high center level patient volume.

Heart Lung 2023; 62:108-115. [PMID: 37399777 PMCID: PMC10592449 DOI: 10.1016/j.hrtlng.2023.06.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intensive care unit (ICU) clinicians struggle to routinely implement the ICU Liberation bundle (ABCDEF bundle). As a result, critically ill patients experience increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Despite extensive research related to the barriers and facilitators of bundle use, little is known regarding which implementation strategies are used to facilitate its adoption and sustainability. OBJECTIVES To identify implementation strategies used to increase adoption of the ABCDEF bundle and how those strategies are perceived by end-users (i.e., ICU clinicians) related to their helpfulness, acceptability, feasibility, and cost. METHODS We conducted a national, cross-sectional survey of ICU clinicians from the 68 ICU sites that previously participated in the Society of Critical Care Medicine's ICU Liberation Collaborative. The survey was structured using the 73 Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) implementation strategies. Surveys were delivered electronically to site contacts. RESULTS Nineteen ICUs (28%) returned completed surveys. Sites used 63 of the 73 ERIC implementation strategies, with frequent use of strategies that may be readily available to clinicians (e.g., providing educational meetings or ongoing training), but less use of strategies that require changes to well-established organizational systems (e.g., alter incentive allowance structure). Overall, sites described the ERIC strategies used in their implementation process to be moderately helpful (mean score >3<4 on a 5-point Likert scale), somewhat acceptable and feasible (mean score >2<3), and either not-at-all or somewhat costly (mean scores >1<3). CONCLUSIONS Our results show a potential over-reliance on accessible strategies and the possible benefit of unused ERIC strategies related to changing infrastructure and utilizing financial strategies.

Abstract
This group is a product of the collaboration agreement signed by SOMIAMA (Sociedad de Medicina Intensiva de Madrid) and SAR MADRID (Sociedad de Anestesiología, Reanimación y Terapéutica del Dolor de Madrid) under which the organisations agreed to create joint working groups to improve critical patient care. Pain, discomfort, agitation, and delirium cause suffering, delay discharge, and can lead to serious complications in patients admitted to medical and surgical critical care units and post-anaesthesia care units. The main objectives in this type of unit include: Ensuring the comfort of patients suffering or recovering from a critical illness.Avoiding complications associated with the measures, particularly pharmacological, taken to ensure that comfort.
