Summary

Immobilization in general internal medicine inpatients is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality. Goal-directed mobilization (GDM) may improve mobility. The aim of this study is to assess, if GDM increases physical activity (DEMMI score) during hospitalization and improves quality of care until 3 months after hospitalization.

Conditions

  • Immobility Syndrome
  • Fall
  • Delirium
  • Sarcopenia
  • Mobility Limitation
  • Hospital Acquired Condition

Interventions
