Early mobilization (EM) is the implementation of physical exercise in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), with important benefits being observed such as reduction of ventilator-associated pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis, pressure ulcers and ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW). It also has a financial impact by reducing hospital length of stay and in the ICU. Also, EM has an important role in the outcome once the patient leaves the hospital reducing the post-intensive care syndrome (PICS).
