Workload of physiotherapy procedures in the adult intensive care unit: a descriptive study in a Brazilian teaching hospital
The procedures with the highest workload index were those directly related to rehabilitation, such as mobilization and exercises, and those not specific to patient condition, like positioning and equipment management. Physiotherapists spent most of their time in direct patient care, followed by indirect care activities and teaching.
