Core Tip |
In spite of the advances in critical care, functional deficits are commonly observed during and after the hospitalization period. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the factors associated with the functional progress in a cohort of patients that underwent a mobilization protocol, from the intensive care unit (ICU) to the hospital discharge. As functional ability, muscle strength, low illness severity score at ICU and ward admission, absence of sepsis and stroke, longer total length of stay, male gender and younger age were predictors of favourable patients’ functional progress, these variables should be taken in consideration when planning rehabilitative strategies for hospitalized patients following an intensive care admission.
