Importance of Nurse-led Mobilization Most ICU nurses know why Early Mobility in the ICU is critically important Need to do root cause analysis of barriers and address each through education, training, policies, equipment, communication Barriers found upon Beaumont survey: Safety is a high concern Risk of injury to patient and self Accurately dosing mobility, choosing equipment, and communicating Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Medical Readiness Assessment Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Readiness Assessment: Other Considerations Patient factors Sedation level Breathing support for EM intervention Femoral Lines ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) Presence of lines, drains, catheters Other factors The right equipment Sufficient staffing / multidisciplinary focus Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality

Raise arms/legs off bed? No to either Sit pt on Edge of Bed (dangle) Stryker chair or bed in Chair position. 4 Min assist (pt performs 75% of work) 1 Use mechanical lift for out of bed activity Mod assist (pt performs 50% of work) 2 person assist Max assist (pt performs Less than 50% of work) 2 person assist 2 3 Nursing to assist pt To bedside chair With belt If pt not at baseline Mobility, recommend PT evaluation Nursing to get help to get patient up In chair with belt Nursing to continue to dangle/ Sit at edge of bed with belt Can pt: Sit to stand x3? March in place x3 each leg? Step forward/back 3x each leg?

Early Mobility Implementation: Mobilizing Your Patients Stepping into Safe Mobility Decision making algorithm Training tool Communication tool Start from the Heart 4-8 hour SPHM training class for all new hire nurses and nursing assistants Co-taught by PT and nursing educators Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Mobilizing Your Patients All Early Mobility protocols have a basic flow of 4-5 stages that progress mobility Some variations exist in specifics The goal is always to work towards functional mobility (Walking and transfers) as soon as safely possible All patient active movement can be considered “Mobility” Start with small things, then progress to bigger movements and anti-gravity activities Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Mobilizing Your Patients: Making the most of all care tasks Always have patient do as much of the task as they can E.g. actively reach top arm to the opposite side of the bed, turn their head to the side if they can when rolling If they do well with bed mobility, try to sit them up Even sitting with feet over edge of bed can be a major accomplishment. Balance in sitting and reach with their arms, look up, sit up straight etc. If they are tolerating sitting well, try to stand up. Shift a little weight or march In place When that is successful, take some steps Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Mobilizing Your Patients: Safety Considerations Always ensure patient is tolerating activity by staying within pre-determined safety parameters Know what equipment is available to keep you and the patients safe Friction Reducing Devices Overhead lifts with slings to lift patients into chairs or ambulate Mobile floor lifts with slings to lift patients or ambulate patients Powered and non-powered sit to stand assist devices to help patients stand up Specialty beds that assist with chair position, turning, and tilting patients to full standing positions Specialized walkers with seats if patient gets tired, and portable ventilators Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
