- Abstract:
- Background The mobilization quantification score (MQS) provides an opportunity to quantify the duration and intensity of mobilization therapy in the intensive care unit (ICU) and predict functional outcomes in ICU patients after surgery and stroke. MQS is a numerical measurement of early mobilization dose in the ICU, and its relationship with activities of daily living (ADL) dependence has been shown. We created and validated the Japanese version of the MQS using the endpoint ADL in a mixed population of patients in the ICU. Materials and methods In this prospective study, consecutive patients who were admitted to one of three ICUs of a tertiary care hospital in Japan, aged ≥18 years, and who received mechanical ventilation for >48 hours were enrolled. The Japanese version of the MQS was applied twice daily by an ICU physiotherapist and data recorded for analysis. The primary outcome was ADL dependence at hospital discharge, defined as a Barthel index (BI) of <70 or in-hospital death. The reliability among assessors was verified by calculating the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) (2.1) for the average daily MQS. We performed a multiple logistic regression analysis to examine and identify a binary cutoff point for high-/low-dose rehabilitation. Results Of the 340 target patients, eight were aged <18 years, 109 had neurological complications, 11 had a BI <70 before admission, 79 had a lack of communication skills, 16 were terminally ill, eight did not complete the assessment during their ICU stay, 18 died in the ICU, and 53 denied consent. After 302 patients were excluded, 38 were included in the study. Six assessors, two at each hospital, measured the MQS in 38 patients. The ICC (2.1) for the MQS mean value was 0.98 (0.96-0.99) during the ICU stay. Logistic regression analysis using the mean MQS on admission to ICUs as an explanatory variable showed a significant association between increased MQS and decreased ADL dependence at discharge (odds ratio (OR): 0.76, confidence interval (CI): 0.61-0.96, adjusted p = 0.009). Logistic regression analysis using a high MQS on admission to ICUs as an explanatory variable showed a significant association between increased MQS and decreased ADL dependence at hospital discharge (OR: 0.14, CI: 0.03-0.66, adjusted p = 0.013). Conclusions We present a validated version of the Japanese MQS with a high inter-rater reliability that predicts ADL dependence at hospital discharge. The instrument can be used in future clinical trials in the ICU to control for the mobilization level in the ICU. The increased utilization of mobilization acutely in the ICU setting as quantified by the MQS may improve patient outcomes.
