The Impact of an Early Mobility Protocol on Recovery Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Abdominal Surgeries

This study demonstrates that an EMP significantly enhances recovery outcomes for abdominal surgery patients, with 60% (six out of 10) of the EG achieving independence by day 6. However, the lack of standardized early mobilization protocols in healthcare settings remains a critical gap. These results align with the WHO's recommendations, underscoring early mobilization as a cornerstone of postoperative recovery and emphasizing the need for standardized approaches to optimize patient outcomes.

Abstract

This study demonstrates that an EMP significantly enhances recovery outcomes for abdominal surgery patients, with 60% (six out of 10) of the EG achieving independence by day 6. However, the lack of standardized early mobilization protocols in healthcare settings remains a critical gap. These results align with the WHO's recommendations, underscoring early mobilization as a cornerstone of postoperative recovery and emphasizing the need for standardized approaches to optimize patient outcomes.
