Objectives:
• At the end of the lecture, the listener will:- Have an increased awareness of the importance of
patient mobility post-stroke in the prevention of common complications
- Recognize the need to approach patient mobility from a medical and rehabilitative team perspective
- Describe at least two cost effective and time efficient strategies to incorporate patient mobility into an acute care setting

Common Post-Stroke Complications
• As a result of impaired mobility, post-stroke survivors can encounter:
- DVT/VTE- Pneumonia- Depression- Falls- Decubiti- Contracture- UTI- Delirium

DVT Prevention Literature Search
• 196 abstract reviews:- Medications: effective- External compression devices: effective- Mobility: absent from the literature except to
acknowledge immobility is a prognosticator of complications
One study did cite early mobility after DVT as having no increased risk of consequences if proper secondary prophylaxis applied

Early Mobility of Post Stroke Patients
• Literature does support early mobility as a means to improve rehabilitative outcomes (short and long term)
• Mobility benefits include prevention of complications, maximizing outcomes, and prediction of appropriate post-stroke service needs
• Quality indicator for rehabilitation plan and DVT prophylaxis

Mobility Barriers
• Medically unstable patients
• Severely impaired patients
• Lack of expertise and / or comfort with patient mobility
• Time perception
![Page 7: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Mobility Solutions
• Lift equipment for severe impairments; or use the space you’ve got for positioning and PROM
• Utilization of mobility experts; partnership with therapies
• Incorporate strategies into the day
![Page 8: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Therapy Partnership
• Provision of recommendations for mobility or activity
• Training for carryover of mobility
• Recommendations for maximal safety
• PT, OT, ST, and Physiatry
![Page 9: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Severely Impaired Patients
• Lifting equipment• P-AAROM to affected limbs• AROM for unaffected limbs• Activity schedules• Positioning techniques (example: shoulder
approximation and wrist elevation of affected arm; with finger extension)
• Optimize stimulation in the environment• Therapy goals may be pre-ADL or pre-gait
activities

Moderately Impaired Patients
• As per severely impaired• Considerations for cognitive issues and safety• Pivot transfers if safe• Up in chair for meal times• Use commodes; avoid bedpans and catheters• Have therapy train staff for the best/easiest
transfer technique

![Page 15: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Minimally Impaired Patients
• Walk each shift• Watch for equipment needs
(communication strategy with therapy!)• Up in chair for all meals• Use the bathroom or commode• Encourage active motions• Encourage leisure interests (example:
knitting, word puzzles - with caution)
![Page 16: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Mobile Patients
• Normalize function• Independent in room; clear with therapy• Ensure post-stroke resources for rehab are
ordered (for all patients)• Watch for high-level cognitive deficits that
are subtle
![Page 17: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Communication Strategies
• White boards (activity section)• Posters (examples: swallow precautions,
swallow strategies, activity schedules, positioning cards, equipment lists, etc.)
• Education sheets• Plan of care rounding
![Page 18: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
![Page 19: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Activity Specialists Programs
• Model that adds FTE(s) whose purpose is to ensure activity occurs-
- Nursing works on medical needs- Therapists work on skilled therapy components- Activity specialist carries out routine and/or
supportive therapeutic mobility
• Ambulation teams• Therapy extension programs
![Page 20: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
How Does a Hospital Pay for an Activity Specialist?
• Generally entry level or slightly higher pay (similar to CNAs)
• Compare with the costs of a single complication that can be prevented:
- Cost of a fall with injury: $6,437- Fall with significant injury: upwards of $60,000- Cost of a pressure ulcer: $7,310
Data from 2005 to 2007, conservative estimates
![Page 21: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Activity Specialist Training
• Would be jointly nursing and therapy trained
• Could be unit specific• Would be supervised by nursing• Could incorporate leisure and social skills,
as well
![Page 22: Beyond TEDS and Meds: Mobility Strategies for Prevention of Post-Stroke DVT and Other Complications Dori Tooke, MHA, PT, CSCS Aurora St. Luke’s Medical.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649e175503460f94b021e0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Patient Activity:
• Prevents complications• Minimizes decline• Ensures team commitment to the patient• Maximizes outcomes• Provides for highest quality care
