Objectives: This study investigated the effect of early mobilization [EM; physical rehabilitation with the intensity needed to sit on the edge of the bed started within 5 days of intensive care unit (ICU) admission] in relation to improvements in gait independence and other clinical outcomes.Methods: This retrospective single-center study evaluated patients aged at least 18 years who stayed in the ICU for at least 48 h and were categorized into EM and late mobilization (LM; physical rehabilitation started more than 5 days after ICU admission) groups. Outcomes were compared after adjusting for 20 background factors by propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting. The primary outcome was independent gait at discharge. The secondary outcomes were medical costs, 90-day survival, and durations of ICU and hospital stays.Results: Of 177 patients, 85 and 92 were enrolled in the EM and LM groups, respectively. Propensity score matching created 37 patient pairs. There was no significant difference in the 90-day survival rate (P=0.308) or medical costs (P=0.054), whereas independent gait at discharge (P=0.025) and duration of hospital stay (P=0.013) differed significantly. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that EM was independently associated with independent gait at discharge (P=0.011) and duration of hospital stay (P=0.010) but was not associated with 90-day survival (odds ratio: 2.64, 95% confidence interval: 0.67–13.12, P=0.169).Conclusions: Early mobilization in the ICU did not affect 90-day survival and did not lower medical costs but was associated with independent gait at discharge and shorter hospital stays.

Coagulopathy, a common complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI), is characterized by a hypercoagulable state developing immediately after injury, with hyperfibrinolysis and bleeding tendency peaking 3 h after injury, followed by fibrinolysis shutdown. Reflecting this timeframe, the coagulation factor fibrinogen is first consumed and then degraded after TBI, its concentration rapidly decreasing by 3 h post-TBI. The fibrinolytic marker D-dimer reaches its maximum concentration at the same time. Hyperfibrinolysis in the acute phase of TBI is associated with poor prognosis via hematoma expansion. In the acute phase, the coagulation and fibrinolysis parameters must be monitored to determine the treatment strategy. The combination of D-dimer plasma level at admission and the level of consciousness upon arrival at the hospital can be used to predict the patients who will "talk and deteriorate." Fibrinogen and D-dimer levels should determine case selection and the amount of fresh frozen plasma required for transfusion. Surgery around 3 h after injury, when fibrinolysis and bleeding diathesis peak, should be avoided if possible. In recent years, attempts have been made to estimate the time of injury from the time course of coagulation and fibrinolysis parameter levels, which has been particularly useful in some cases of pediatric abusive head trauma patients.
