Effect of Early Mobilization on Hemodynamic Parameters of Patients Undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy; A Randomized Clinical Trial

Aims: Today, due to the failure of non-surgical methods in the treatment of obesity, surgical procedures such as sleeve gastrocetomy are used. Similar to other invasive interventions, sleeve gastrectomy causes an imbalance in hemodynamic parameters. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early mobilization on hemodynamic parameters in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. Materials and Methods: The present study is a clinical trial that was conducted in Shiraz in 2016. 88 patients were selected by convenience sampling method and divided into intervention and control groups, using randomized block design. Hemodynamic parameters including systolic and diastolic blood pressure and arterial oxygen saturation were recorded at the time of entering the ward, 6, 12, and 24 hours after departure. T-test, Mann-Whitney, Chi-square, repeated measures ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Friedman test, and SPSS 21 software were used. Findings: The changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group at each time interval after intervention were significantly different from that of the control group (p>0.05). Also, changes in arterial oxygen saturation in the intervention group except for the early mobilization, at other times compared to their starting point, were significantly different in comparison to the control group (p>0.05). Conclusion: The effect of early mobilization is greater compared to the conventional procedure of mobilization for the patients after sleeve gastrectomy surgery in the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and arterial oxygen saturation.
