Why the study?
The functional outcomes and effectiveness of early mobilization for patients within intensive care units after CABG had not been investigated.
Does early mobilization reduce hospital and intensive care unit length of stay and improve functional outcomes in adults in the intensive care unit after CABG?

Key result
Early mobilization after CABG surgery reduced intensive care unit length of stay by ≥1 day in 6 of 14 studies and hospital length of stay by ≥1 day in 5 of 7 studies.

Supports early mobilization post-CABG to shorten ICU and hospital stays; extends prior evidence but requires standardized protocols in future trials.

Does early mobilization reduce hospital and intensive care unit length of stay and improve functional outcomes in adults in the intensive care unit after CABG?
Early mobilization after CABG is associated with reduced ICU and hospital lengths of stay and improved respiratory and functional outcomes.
Morgan et al. (2024) conducted a systematic review in Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) (n=2,280). Early mobilization was evaluated on Hospital and intensive care unit length of stay (LoS) and functional outcomes. Early mobilization after CABG surgery reduced intensive care unit length of stay by ≥1 day in 6 of 14 studies and hospital length of stay by ≥1 day in 5 of 7 studies.
