Benefits of early mobilization after pediatric liver transplantation

Pediatric Critical Care Medicine Feb 12, 2019

Tsuboi N, et al. - Researchers assessed the effect of early mobilization after pediatric liver transplantation in the PICU in this 70-month retrospective before-after study. This study was conducted at medical and surgical PICU with 20 beds at a tertiary children’s hospital and included 75 patients 2–18 years old who had liver transplantation and could walk before surgery. An early mobilization intervention, a multifaceted framework for early mobilization practice in the PICU focusing on a multidisciplinary team approach, was implemented. Findings revealed that a shorter duration from liver transplantation to regaining the ability to walk again without a rolling walker was attained by implementing early mobilization for pediatric patients who underwent liver transplantation. Overall, for this patient population, beneficial impacts of early mobilization intervention were seen.
