Brief Summary

Rehabilitation already begins in the intensive care unit (ICU) to maintain or restore the functional capacity of ICU patients and to counteract the long-term effects of intensive care treatment. Mobilisation is an important component. The aim of this multinational observational study is to record and evaluate the different mobilisation practices for ICU patients worldwide. The investigators want to find out which forms of mobilisation in intensive care patients achieve the best results in terms of physical function, functional status and quality of life. The goal is to recruit over 6,000 patients internationally. No interventions will be carried out, only routine clinical data will be documented and standardised and already established physical tests and questionnaires will be used.
