Abstract: Background: Early mobilization (EM) is a safe and effective intervention that can have a significant impact on functional outcomes and prevent immobility complications. Despite the growing evidence in support of the benefits of EM, many intensive care units (ICUs) are unable to effectively integrate EM into their daily practice of patient care due to many barriers including lack of nurses' knowledge and practice about the EM of critically ill patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of educational sessions on the EM of critically ill patients (CIPs) on nurses' knowledge and practices. Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilized in this study. Setting: The study was conducted in the ICUs affiliated to a University Hospital in Egypt. Subjects: A convenience sample of 45 nurses......
