No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to decide if using a nurse-led mobility protocol affects teamwork perceptions, when mobilizing ventilated neurosurgery patients. Participants will mobilize ventilated neurosurgery patients according to either facility standard procedures or a piloted nurse-led mobility protocol. Each selected patient will be mobilized once during his/her hospitalization for the purposes of this study. Patient mobility may take up to 1 hour. Following this, participating staff will be asked to complete a survey used to measure teamwork perceptions. Participants will be given up to 30 minutes to complete the survey. Total study duration is 3 months.

Nurse-led progressive mobility protocol

The nurse-led mobility progression protocol incorporates a checklist for four primary team members belonging to each discipline to follow before, during, and after providing mobility for each patient. It outlines steps to progress patient mobility from in-bed mobility activities to out-of-bed activities as tolerated. This protocol intervention was created and designed based upon a review of previously conducted studies' interventions and findings, as well as expert guidelines established in the literature. Furthermore, multidisciplinary experts at the medical center who work with ventilated neurosurgery patients were consulted to form the protocol to further establish hemodynamic, neurological, respiratory, and physiological patient safety parameters. This intervention has not been implemented in previous studies and will be piloted for this study.

OTHER

Standard of Care

For the purposes of the current study, the control group of multidisciplinary teams requested to mobilize the ventilated neurosurgery patient, may also consist of the primary nurse, RT, PT, and PCT. They will be asked to progressively mobilize the patient to the best of their ability according to standard of care procedures, incorporating any resources the medical center provides including, but not limited to, written information, equipment, ThinkLift, etc.
