Mobilisation Asher 1947

“Teach us to live that we may dread unnecessary timein bed. Get people up and we may save our patients from an early grave.”

(Grosselink et al. 2008)

What is Mobilisation in ICU?Physical activity sufficient to elicit acutephysiological effects that enhance

Ventilation,

Central and Peripheral Perfusion,

Circulation,

Muscle metabolism,

Alertness,

Are counter measures for venous stasis and DVT.(Walsham et al. 2009)

Effects of Immobility in ICU CNS Cardiovascular Respiratory Gastro-Intestinal Urinary Tract Dermatological Psychological Musculoskeletal Functional Independence Cost of Care Length of hospital stay

CNS Decrease Perception

Decrease Proprioception / Co-ordination

Decrease Balance

Decrease / Increase muscle tone

Cardiovascular Decrease Cardiac Output, Stroke Volume, Peripheral

Vascular Resistance

Venous stasis

Orthostatic intolerance

Increase risk of venous thrombosis and Pulmonary Emboli

Decrease total cardiac and left ventricular size

Respiratory Decrease ant / post diameter → Decrease alveolar

size → Decrease gas exchange

Decrease in functional residual capacity

Decrease lung compliance

Retained secretions → Pneumonia (VAP)

Atelectasis

Respiratory muscle weakness

Decrease exercise tolerance

Gastro Intestinal Decrease bowel function

Abnormal fluid distribution

Urinary Tract Kidney stones

Increase excretion of Nitrogen, Calcium, Magnesium and Potassium

Dermatological Pressure sore formation

Psychological Depression

Anxiety

Decrease Cognition

Delirium

Musculoskeletal Decrease muscle protein synthesis Muscle atrophy (30% loss in week) Decrease muscle strength (40% loss in week) Contractures Decreased Range of motion (ROM) Loss of bone density – Osteoporosis Neuromuscular weakness

Critical Illness Polyneuropathy or Myopathy

Decrease Quality of Life (5 years post ICU)

Critical IllnessCritical Illness

↑ Reactive O2 Species Bed Rest Malnutrition↑ Inflammatory Cytokines

Neuromuscular Abnormalities

Muscle Weakness

↑ Mechanical Ventilation Time ↑ ICU / Hospital Stay ↓ Physical Function ↓ QOL

(Truyong et al. 2009)

CIP & CIM CIP

Decrease sensation

Distal weakness > Proximal weakness

Deep tendon reflex absent

CIMNormal sensation

Proximal weakness > Distal weakness

Hypoactive deep tendon reflex

(Khan et al. 2006)

When to Start Mobilisation 24-48 hours after ICU admission

Physiological StabilityNeurologically (Conscious)

Cardiovascular (HR <50% age predicted Max HR,Normal BP, Normal ECG)

Respiratory (SaO2 >90%, Respiratory pattern)

Haematologically (HB >7, Platelet count, Glucoselevels 3.5 – 20mmol/L)

Sufficient perfusion to maintain normal organ function

(Dean & Ross, 1994)

Steps of MobilisationPassive or active limb exercises in

bedSitting over side of bed with or without

support

T/F from bed to chair with partial mechanical assistance

T/F from bed to chair without mechanical assistance

Standing and walking on the spot with mechanical assistance

Walking without mechanical assistance

(Walsham et al. 2009)

Mobilisation Techniques Limb exercises (passive, active assisted,

active and resistant)

Active / passive moving or turning in bed

Hoist

Slide board

Motomed

Walking Aid (Walking frame)

Effects of mobilisation Psychological

Central nervous system - Consciousness

Cardiovascular

Respiratory - Improve airway clearance

- Improve lung volumes

Gastro Intestinal

Musculoskeletal – Functional Independence

(Stiller K. 2007)

When to Stop Mobilisation SaO2 <88%

Hypotension associated with dizziness

Heart rate >max heart rate

Change in heart rhythm

Increased respiratory rate

Chest pain

Excessive pallor of flushing skin

Contra Indications for mobilisation

Different Studies Australian Journal of Physiotherapy – 2004

Physiological responses to the early mobilisation of the intubated, ventilated abdominal surgery patient.

Study was done in Sydney Australia, took ABG before and after mobilisation. Mobilise patient into supine, sit, stand, walk on the spot for 1 minute and sit in chair for 20 minutes. Study showed physiological changes due to change in position from supine to sit / stand. No changes from sit / stand – 20 min sit.

Studies Cont. Physical Therapy – September 2006

Effects of physical training on functional status in patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation – 6 week training program (active and resistant UL and LL exercises)

Function, QOL and Psychological improvement

Critical Care Medicine – 2007Treatment group received OT and PT during daily wake

up. Control group received standard care. Treatment group had shorter ventilation days, decrease delirium and quicker recovery.

Studies Cont. American Journal of Critical Science - 2011

Questionnaire send 12 months after DC from hospital for patients with respiratory failure – patients not mobilised early - readmission / passed away

Critical Care Research and Practise – July 2012

Randomised control study of 90 patients. Treatment group ride bicycle for 5 days, 20 min per day – Mobiliseindependantly with D/C. Control group need rehab

Case Study: SBAH Surgery ICU19 Year old female patient. Diagnosed with achalasia,

leiomyopathy, diabetes and asthma. She presented with

an unknown syndrome. The patient presented during

May 2013 with abdominal pain. She had several

laparotomies for bowl obstruction. Fistula was formed.

3 months on TPN, with no oral intake.

Admitted in ICU 26 July 2013 – 46 days in ICU

Decrease length of stay

Improve Functional independency

Safe money

Inter-professional team work is essential
