Summary

To analyze changes on respiratory muscle strength, peripheral and functional capacity of critically ill patients with clinical and surgical etiology, breathing spontaneously and bedridden, within 48 hours of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and if there are correlations among these variables. This is an observational study. Respiratory muscle strength will be assessed through the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) and peripheral muscle strength, by the Medical Research Council score (MRC) and hand grip test and functional capacity through the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and Physical Function ICU Test Score (PFIT-s) in the period between 24h and 48h of hospitalization in the adult ICU. For descriptive purposes, the sample will be stratified according to clinical and surgical characteristics. Correlations will be determined using the Pearson test, with significance level of p \<0.05.

Conditions

• Intensive Care Unit Syndrome
• Muscle Weakness

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Early ambulation	Procedure to accelerate the ability of a patient to walk or move about by reducing the time to ambulation. It is characterized by a shorter period of hospitalization or recumbency than is normally practiced.
