| Consumer Summary: | KEY MESSAGES: Anxiety and pain are inevitable after major abdominal surgery. Mobilization is very important for wound healing and shortening of morbidity. Mobilization accelerates discharge and reduces the risk of deep vein thrombosis. Early mobilization can be achieved by doing bed exercises after major abdominal surgery. Early ambulation and adequate mobilization in surgical patients are performed according to the principles of the ERAS protocol. |
