Summary

Despite the known complications of immobility for ICU patients, compliance to mobility protocols is lacking in many institutions. Significant barriers have been described to compliance to up in chair and weight bearing orders in the ICU. Recent studies indicate that if progressive mobility is performed for acutely ill ICU patients they may have a reduced ICU length of stay, reduced overall hospital length of stay, incur lower hospital costs, and reduce the rate of some medical complications and increase functionality post ICU discharge.

The current protocol seeks to understand whether or not the TotalCare® P500 Bed System and the Liko Lift can remove some of the barriers associated with progressive mobility compliance.
