Early Orthostatic Exercise by Head-Up Tilt With Stepping vs. Standard Care After Severe Traumatic Brain Injury Is Feasible

Early Orthostatic Exercise by Head-Up Tilt With Stepping vs. Standard Care After Severe Traumatic Brain Injury Is Feasible

Intensive rehabilitation of patients after severe traumatic brain injury aims to improve functional outcome. The effect of initiating rehabilitation in the early phase, in the form of head-up mobilization, is unclear. To assess whether early mobilization is feasible and safe in patients with traumat...

Zusammenfassung:Intensive rehabilitation of patients after severe traumatic brain injury aims to improve functional outcome. The effect of initiating rehabilitation in the early phase, in the form of head-up mobilization, is unclear. To assess whether early mobilization is feasible and safe in patients with traumatic brain injury admitted to a neurointensive care unit. This was a randomized parallel-group clinical trial, including patients with severe traumatic brain injury (Glasgow coma scale
