  1. ICU Adult Early Mobilization Program Egbert Pravinkumar, MD, FRCP Associate Professor Department of Critical Care UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, Texas Presented on behalf of the ICU- EMP Task Force

  2. Objectives • Overview • Effects of immobility • Benefits of early mobility • Components of MDACC adult ICU-EMP • Outcomes of our pilot program • Future expansion of program

  3. Concept of Early Mobility • Phys Therap 1972 – Foss et al, Technique for augmenting ventilation during ambulation • CHEST1975 – Burns et al, use of special walker

  4. Early and Progressive Mobility • Early Mobility - Mobility program commenced even when patient participation is minimal or none • Progressive Mobility - Series of planned movement in a sequential manner

  5. Adverse Outcomes of Immobility Short-term • Ventilator associated pneumonia • Delayed weaning • Muscle de-conditioning/ weakness • Pressure ulcers Allen C, Lancet 1999 Morris PE, Crit Care Clin 2007

  6. Adverse Outcomes of Immobility Long-term • Increased morbidity/ mortality • Decreased functional capacity • Dependency for ADL • Increased cost of care • Markedly impaired quality of life Herridge MS, NEJM 2003 Hopkins RO, Amer J Resp Crit Care Med 2005

  7. Benefits of Early Mobility • Improved outcome at 1yr post ICU • Reduced delirium (ABCDE approach) • Improved functional outcomes • Decreased IMV days • Decreased hospital days • Decreased cost of care Morris PE, Am J Med Sci, 2011 Morandi A, Curr Opin Crit Care 2011 Schweickert WD, Lancet 2009

  8. Established Standards vs. Practice • Only 3% of ICU patients were turned as per required standards • Only 50% had some change in body position • The average time between manual turns were 4.85±3.3 hr Krishnagopalan S, Crit Care Med 2002 Goldhill DR, Anaesthesia 2008

  9. Barriers for Early Mobility • Need for a culture change • Perceived harm of mobilization • Subjective variations in decisions • Disagreement between care givers • Lack of structured algorithm • Excessive sedation • Lack of knowledge of the benefits • Lack of tools and trained staff

  10. Early Mobilization Program in Oncological ICU • Purpose: To develop, implement and evaluate an early mobilization program for adult ICU patients in a mixed medical and surgical oncology ICU. • Aim: To increase the average number of mobilization activities per patient day by 40% within an 8 week pilot period

  11. MDACC-Adult ICU EMP • Interdisciplinary team • Design of evidence based EMP algorithm • Pre-implementation • Data collection • Survey on knowledge and perceptions related to mobilization • Education • 8 week trial period from October 2010 through December 2010 - Medical & surgical patients (16/54 ICU beds)

  12. Our Interdisciplinary Team

  13. MDACC-Adult ICU EMP • Interdisciplinary team • Design of an evidence based EMP algorithm • Pre-implementation • Data collection • Survey on knowledge and perceptions related to mobilization • Education • 8 week trial period from October 2010 through December 2010 - Medical & surgical patients (16/54 ICU beds)

  14. EMP Algorithm • Highlights • Contraindications • Precautions • Signs of intolerance • PT/OT consult within 24 hours of admission • 5 Levels based on RASS and functional status

  15. EMP: Contraindications • ICP ≥ 15 • RASS +4 • Acute or Uncontrolled Intracranial Event • Fio2 ≥ 0.85 on invasive mechanical ventilation • PEEP ≥ 15 / VDR or HFOV • Unsecured airway • Active cardiac ischemia • Uncontrolled arrhythmias • Blood pressure instability despite vasopressors • Unstable fracture

  16. EMP: Precautions • Continuous dialysis • VTE • Lumbar drain • External ventricular drain • Plastic surgery • Orthopedic surgery • RASS +3 • If precautions are present – discuss with team • prior to initiating mobilization activity

  17. EMP: Signs of Intolerance • RR > 40 • Sp02 < 88% • MAP < 50 or > 130 • HR < 50 or > 130 • Development of any contraindications

  18. Initial 5-Level EMP

  19. 5-Level Progressive EMP

  20. MDACC-Adult ICU EMP • Interdisciplinary team • Design of evidence based EMP algorithm • Pre-implementation • Data collection • Survey on knowledge and perceptions related to mobilization • Education • 8 week trial period from October 2010 through December 2010 - Medical & surgical patients (16/54 ICU beds)

  21. Data Collection Tool

  22. Survey: Pre-Implementation of EMP • Need for a standardized process • Need for facilitator and mobility team • Variations in MD practices • Concern over tube and line integrity • Head/Neck & Plastic surgery patients • Lack of personnel/equipment • Lack of knowledge and skill

  23. MDACC-Adult ICU EMP • Interdisciplinary team • Design of evidence based EMP algorithm • Pre-implementation • Data collection • Survey on knowledge and perceptions related to mobilization • Education • 8 week trial period from October 2010 through December 2010 - Medical & surgical patients (16/54 ICU beds)

  24. Data for Pilot Program • Total mobilization activities • Average mobilization activities/pt. day • OT/PT activity

  25. Total and Average ICU Mobilization Activities Average Mobilization Activities per Patient Day Total Mobilization Activities Activities included: ROM, positioning, bed in chair position, splinting, dangle at the edge of bed, out of bed, ADL, and ambulation.

  26. Data Summary: PT/OT Consults Total number of visits in Pods C & D (Sep. ’10 & Dec. ‘10)

  27. Mobilization Activities Pre and Post EMP Mobilization activities* per patient day during pre-protocol period and at 8 weeks: • Nursing: increased by 31% • Occupational Therapy: increased by 86% • Physical Therapy: increased by 78% • *Mobilization activities include: bed in chair position, dangle EOB, OOB, ADL and ambulation

  28. Pilot Data Summary • Aim: To increase the average number of mobilization activities per patient day by 40% within an 8 week pilot period 47%

  29. Potential Cost Savings • Based on reduction in ICU-LOS by 1 day • Non-ventilated patients [$3,872/day x 136 pts/month] = $526,592/month • Ventilated patients [$7105/day x 83 pts/month] = $589,715/month

  30. EMP: Beyond the Pilot Program

  31. Simplified 3-Level EMP • Highlight of Changes • Condensed to 3 Levels • Reduced contents of levels • Incorporation of visual cues

  32. Simplified 3-Level EMP

  44. EMP: Initial Process Orders are written: Early Mobilization Protocol: PT/OT consult & treat • PT/OT • Examine patient within 48 hours • Reinforce teaching and nursing interventions • Develop and implement PT/OT plan based on examination and Mobility Level • 5. Update mobility levels & motivational tokens in room • RN • Assess patient upon admission • Begin nursing interventions based on level • 4. Delegate activities to nursing assistant
