The Effect of Early Mobilization on Respiratory Parameters of Mechanically Ventilated Patients With Respiratory Failure

This article reports the results of a study of a randomized clinical trial of intensive care unit patients receiving mechanical ventilation. The findings of this study confirmed that a 4-step protocol for early mobilization can improve Pao2, O2 saturation, Pao2/Fio2 (fraction of inspired oxygen) ratio, and pulmonary compliance. The value of interdisciplinary collaboration supporting early mobilization was confirmed.
