Objectives: The goal of this study was to determine the effects of an intensive care unit (ICU) rehabilitation protocol with dedicated therapists on the physical function and activities of daily living (ADL) of patients on discharge from the ICU.Methods: This retrospective study included patients who started rehabilitation during their ICU stay. Patients were divided into three groups: the Usual Care group (before the introduction of the rehabilitation protocol), the Protocol group (after the introduction of the rehabilitation protocol), and the PT + Protocol group (with a dedicated therapist in addition to the rehabilitation protocol). The standard interventions in the Protocol group and the PT + Protocol group were set according to the protocol based on the level of consciousness and strength of each individual patient. Patients’ age, APACHE II score, length of ICU stay, length of hospital stay, and the Functional Status Score for the ICU (FSS-ICU) and Medical Research Council score (MRC score) on discharge from the ICU were compared among the three groups.Results: There were no significant differences among the three groups in age and APACHE II score. The MRC and FSS-ICU scores were significantly higher in the PT + Protocol and Protocol groups than in the Usual Care group. Furthermore, the lengths of ICU stay and hospital stay were lower in the PT + Protocol group than in the Usual Care group.Conclusions: Introduction of the rehabilitation protocol improved the limb strength and ADL of patients. Moreover, the presence of dedicated therapists in addition to the protocol reduced the lengths of ICU and hospital stays.

Objective: Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after cardiac surgery. The aim of this multicenter study was to determine the relationship between POAF and patients' progress in early rehabilitation after heart valve surgery. Methods: We enrolled 302 patients (mean age, 69±10 years) who had undergone heart valve surgery. POAF was monitored using continuous electrocardiogram telemetry, and the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) was used to assess lower-extremity function before surgery and at the time of discharge. Progress in early rehabilitation was evaluated by the duration from the surgery to independent walking. We determined factors associated delayed early rehabilitation and evaluated the interplay of POAF and delayed early rehabilitation in increasing the risk of decline in lower-extremity function from preoperatively to hospital discharge. Results: Multivariate analysis determined POAF to be independent predictors of delayed early rehabilitation after heart valve surgery (OR: 3.906, P =.01). The association between delayed early rehabilitation and decline in lower extremity function was stronger in patients with POAF (OR: 2.73, P =.041) than in those without (OR: 2.22, P =.052). Conclusions: POAF was clinical predictors of delayed early rehabilitation in patients undergoing heart valve surgery. The combination of POAF with delayed early rehabilitation conferred a high risk of decline in lower-extremity function during hospitalization.
