The prescription of correct seating as part of the treatment package often enables early mobilisation by supporting the patient to get out of bed earlier and therefore positively impacts their clinical outcome.
Bed rest results in 12% loss of muscle strength each week, intensifying to 50% loss after 3-5 weeks.1 Therefore, encouraging the patient to sit in a chair as early as possible into their treatment can be a key factor in order to preserve muscle strength.
Early mobilization using the correct chair that fully supports a patient’s posture and meets his or her clinical needs can contribute to their overall health and wellbeing.
Providing a patient with the ability to sit out of bed can have overwhelming benefits on the patient’s psychological wellbeing, their dignity and confidence.
As a result of their improved psychological well-being, they will start to feel better mentally and be more motivated to interact with staff members, family and other patients. The impact on speed of recovery can be life changing.
