TL;DR: A strategy for whole-body rehabilitation-consisting of interruption of sedation and physical and occupational therapy in the earliest days of critical illness-was safe and well tolerated, and resulted in better functional outcomes at hospital discharge, a shorter duration of delirium, and more ventilator-free days compared with standard care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility of physical and occupational therapy beginning from initiation of mechanical ventilation.

TL;DR: Early physical and occupational therapy is feasible from the onset of mechanical ventilation despite high illness acuity and presence of life support devices, and adverse events related to this intervention are uncommon.
