Feasibility and safety of upper limb extremity ergometer exercise in the cardiac intensive care unit in critically ill patients with cardiac disease: a prospective observational study
Early upper limb extremity ergometer exercises for critically ill patients with CS or at risk for CS resulted in changes in heart rate and respiratory rate during exercise. However, no exercise-related adverse events occurred. Upper limb extremity ergometer exercise can be a new tool of physical therapy in the acute phase of patients after CS or at risk for CS.
