Early Mobility in the ICU, How is It Going?

UCSF Critical Care & Trauma Medicine Conference May 29-31 2014

Presented by Heidi Engel, PT, DPT heidi.engel@ucsfmedctr.org

Why Early ICU Patient Mobility?

Diaphragm muscle thinning and atrophy begins within 18 to 48 hours after intubation

Levine, S., T . Nguyen, et al. (2008). "Rapid disuse atrophy of diaphragm fibers in mechanically ventilated humans." N Engl J Med 358 (13): 1327-1335. Grosu HB, Lee YI, Lee J, Eden E, Eikermann M, Rose KM: Diaphragm muscle thinning in patients who are mechanically

• ventilated. Chest 2012, 142(6):1455-1460.

Rectus Femoris protein breakdown begins within 24 hours of ICU admission, cross sectional area declining rapidly during first week

Why Early ICU Patient Mobility?

The duration of bed rest during critical illness was consistently associated with weakness throughout 24-month follow-up.

Based on available evidence, early exercise/PT seems to be the only treatment yet shown to improve long-term physical function of ICU survivors.

Astronauts are on Bed Rest

They exercise for at least 2 hours/day to counter the adverse effects to their bone density and muscles

How Are We Doing? Point Prevalence Studies:

Nydahl P, Ruhl AP, Bartoszek G, Dubb R, Filipovic S, Flohr HJ, Kaltwasser A, Mende H, Rothaug O, Schuchhardt D et al: Early mobilization of mechanically ventilated patients: a 1-day point-prevalence study in Germany*. Crit Care Med 2014, 42(5):1178-1186.

In this 1-day point-prevalence study conducted across Germany, only 24% of all mechanically ventilated patients and only 8% of patients with an endotracheal tube were mobilized out of bed as part of routine care.

How Are We Doing? Point Prevalence Studies:

Berney SC, Harrold M, Webb SA, Seppelt I, Patman S, Thomas PJ, Denehy L: Intensive care unit mobility practices in Australia and New Zealand: a point prevalence study. Crit Care Resusc 2013, 15(4):260-265. 45% were mechanically ventilated. Mobilisation activities were classified into five categories that were not mutually exclusive: 140 patients (28%) completed an in-bed exercise regimen, 93 (19%) sat over the side of the bed, 182 (37%) sat out of bed, 124 (25%) stood and 89 (18%) walked. Predefined adverse events occurred on 24 occasions (5%). No patient requiring mechanical ventilation sat out of bed or walked.

How Are We Doing? Point Prevalence Studies:

Terri Hough University of Washington Medical Center, Presenting at The 7th International Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of Critically Ill Patients Meeting 5/17/2014, Across the US: 64% of ICU patients experienced any activity, 50% of those were bed level activity, 20% of those were transfers to a chair, 10% of those were walking Profoundly variable practice patterns

Top 10 Excuses for Keeping An ICU Patient Immobile

5/30/2014 4

SAFETY:

Excuse: The Patient is too…,

Excuse # 1. SAFETY: The patient is too sick, or too big

TRUE:

New onset sepsis or respiratory distress (think of hours NOT days) Unstable bleeding or surgical site Terminal disease (comfort care measures), Comatose Acute unstable cardiovascular event

Solution # 1. SAFETY: The patient is too sick, or too big

Collaborate with RN,RT, MD Use Clinical judgment Every diagnosis in context Context Is it a beautiful sunny day after so much rain, or are we in the middle of a drought?

5/30/2014 5

Excuse # 1. SAFETY: The patient is too sick, or too big

FALSE: The patient has a DVT (reference the American College of Chest Physicians 2012 guidelines: people with acute DVT do not need a period of bed rest) FALSE: The obese patient was admitted able to walk at home (think of how crucial prevention can be) FALSE: The patient is on ARDS Net Protocol FALSE: The patient is a new admit to the ICU

Excuse # 2. SAFETY:

The patient is too sleepy RASS -1 to -4 Hypoactive delirious Goal targeted sedation?

True: Delirium is Brain Failure Brain Failure Looks Like This

Solution# 2. SAFETY: The patient is too sleepy

Collaborate with RN,RT, MD Use Clinical judgment Every level of delirium in context Consider the environment

5/30/2014 6

Solution# 2. SAFETY: The patient is too sleepy and may respond well to being up

Excuse # 3. SAFETY: The patient is too agitated Solution # 3. SAFETY: The patient is too agitated

Excuse # 4. SAFETY: the patient has challenging lines or endotracheal tube

What About All Those Critical Lines?

Patient lines and drains can be accommodated Including Femoral Lines Mechanical ventilation and CVVH lines

What About All Those Critical Lines?

Lines, catheters and drains can be accommodated, secured EVD line stationary bike

Excuse #5 Timing: The patient is leaving

The patient is going for: A procedure A CT scan Transferring to the floor Will be extubated soon

Solution #5 Timing: Soon to be Extubated

Activity trumps extubation: A pre- and post-activity rest period with assist-control ventilation for 30 min was employed as needed to support early activity. If the patient was intubated and able to participate in activity, the FIO2 was increased by 0.2 before initiation of activity. We deferred ventilator weaning in support of activity, as necessary.

Plan ahead and coordinate care

In Summary

Critical illness is catabolic and depleting, rapidly and potentially lasting for years A prolonged ICU stay can cause delirium and cognitive changes for most patients Mobility combined with minimal or no sedation started at the beginning of an ICU stay is protective and preventative Approach the task with structured QI project, collaboration, barrier identification

Mobility is Life

Early mobility is profoundly beneficial to your patients Don’t be afraid, they do better than you expect It is a MULTIDISCIPLINE task
