The Effect of Early Mobilization as Part of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery on Postoperative Outcomes After Emergency Abdominal Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Postoperative mobilization may reduce major complications, hospital stay and accelerate recovery, primarily as a part of an ERAS protocol. However, certainty of evidence remains very low. Most studies had a serious risk of bias, highlighting the need for high-quality RCTs.

Abstract

Postoperative mobilization may reduce major complications, hospital stay and accelerate recovery, primarily as a part of an ERAS protocol. However, certainty of evidence remains very low. Most studies had a serious risk of bias, highlighting the need for high-quality RCTs.
