May necessitate focused support for early mobilization after high-risk abdominal surgery; hypothesis-generating for targeted fatigue and pain interventions.
What is the physical performance and what are the barriers to independent mobilization in the first postoperative week following acute high-risk abdominal surgery?
Following acute high-risk abdominal surgery, patients experience severely limited physical performance primarily due to fatigue and abdominal pain.
Jønsson et al. (2018) studied this question.
