Summary

Prior to discharging admitted patients, current UAB Hospital policy recommends physical therapy intervention for patients with impaired functional mobility. However, UAB Hospital currently does not have a standardized physical therapy protocol to rehabilitate admitted patients with impaired functional mobility who require moderate assist (defined as physical therapist expending 25-50% effort to assist the patient in standing). In order to reduce the effect of impaired mobility, numerous interventions have been employed at UAB. As a result, there is great variability of treatment procedures performed by various physical therapists to help moderate assist patients return to their level of functioning prior to hospital admission. The purpose of the study is three-fold: 1) to evaluate whether a proposed physical therapy protocol using a commercially available medical device, the Movi chair, contributes to improved mobility for moderate assist patients, 2) to investigate how patient rate of rehabilitation to prior level of functioning is similar/different with the proposed physical therapy protocol using Movi vs the current non-standardized practice for moderate assist patients, and 3) to compare patient confidence in physical therapy with Movi vs the current non-standardized practice using survey for moderate assist patients. In addition, we will track participant's disposition i.e. continued motor and functional change following discharge from the hospital through review of physical therapy records.
