Sociodemographic association in the hemodynamic challenge of early mobilization post-cardiac surgery.

Decreased functional capacity in post-cardiac surgery often leads to muscle atrophy and inactivity. Prolonged bed rest is the main contributor to the delay in recovery. This study investigates the association between hemodynamic challenge during early mobilization and socio-demographic factors with clinical cardiac monitoring such as gender, Body Mass Index (BMI), EuroSCORE in post-cardiac surgery patients. The finding showed gender, BMI, and EUROScore were associated with a hemodynamic challenge during early mobilization. In conclusion, the study suggests that early mobilization post-cardiac surgery is not only safe but cost-effective for the institution and the government.
