It highlights that early rehabilitation (or early mobilization) aims to prevent deterioration restore function and reduce complications. Early rehab starts as soon as possible including tasks like mobilization positioning physical therapy and addressing complications (e.g. pain infections dysphagia).Key points include:Phases of rehabilitation: Different models (e.g. German Phasenmodell) guide the transition from acute care to rehabilitation.Common clinical issues: Disorders of consciousness comorbidities (e.g. heart problems) pain dysphagia.Complications: Immobility-related muscle loss lung function decline and critical illness myopathy/polyneuropathy.Interventions: Early mobilization respiratory care cardiovascular training and specialized therapies for upper/lower extremities and aphasia.Psychological impact: Delirium depression and PTSD are common in ICU patients requiring psychological support.
