Algoritmo de movilización temprana para el paciente crítico. Recomendaciones de expertos / Early mobilisation algorithm for the critical patient. Expert recommendations

Introducción La debilidad adquirida en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (DAU) es desarrollada por el 40-46% de los pacientes ingresados en UCI. Diferentes estudios han mostrado que la movilización temprana (MT) es segura, factible, costo-efectiva y mejora los resultados del paciente a corto y largo plazo. Objetivo Diseñar un algoritmo de MT para el paciente crítico en general y enumerar unas recomendaciones para la MT en subpoblaciones específicas de paciente crítico con más riesgo para la movilización: neurocrítico, traumático, sometido a terapias continuas de depuración renal (TCDR) y con dispositivos de asistencia ventricular (DAV) o membrana de oxigenación extracorpórea (ECMO). Metodología Revisión en las bases de datos Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane y PEDro de estudios publicados en los últimos 10 años, que aporten protocolos/intervenciones de MT. Resultados Se incluyeron 30 artículos. De ellos, 21 eran para guiar la MT en el paciente crítico en general, 7 en pacientes neurocríticos y/o traumáticos, uno en pacientes portadores de TCDR y uno en pacientes portadores de ECMO y/o DVA. Se diseñan 2 figuras: una para la toma de decisiones teniendo en cuenta el bundle ABCDEF y la otra con los criterios de seguridad y objetivo de movilidad para cada uno. Conclusiones Los algoritmos de MT aportados pueden promover la movilización precoz (entre el 1.er y 5.o día de ingreso en UCI), junto a aspectos a tener en cuenta antes de la movilización y criterios de seguridad para suspenderla.

Introduction Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness is developed by 40%-46% of patients admitted to ICU. Different studies have shown that Early Mobilisation (EM) is safe, feasible, cost-effective and improves patient outcomes in the short and long term. Objective To design an EM algorithm for the critical patient in general and to list recommendations for EM in specific subpopulations of the critical patient most at risk for mobilisation: neurocritical, traumatic, undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and with ventricular assist devices (VAD) or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methodology Review undertaken in the Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane and PEDro databases of studies published in the last 10 years, providing EM protocols/interventions. Results 30 articles were included. Of these, 21 were on guiding EM in critical patients in general, 7 in neurocritical and/or traumatic patients, 1 on patients undergoing CRRT and 1 on patients with ECMO and/or VAD. Two figures were designed: one for decision-making, taking the ABCDEF bundle into account and the other with the safety criteria and mobility objective for each. Conclusions The EM algorithms provided can promote early mobilisation (between the 1st and 5th day from admission to ICU), along with aspects to consider before mobilisation and safety criteria for discontinuing it.
