Abstract Synopsis

  • The study evaluated a new approach to mobilize patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and external ventricular drains (EVDs) by shifting from therapy-guided to nurse-led mobilization, making it safer and more practical.
  • Results showed that nurse-led mobilization allowed patients to be out of bed more often and for longer periods without increasing complications, and they were more likely to be discharged home or to rehab rather than long-term care.
  • The findings suggest that nurses can safely lead early mobilization, which may improve patient outcomes, although more research is needed to confirm the direct impact on recovery.]
