Brief Summary:
Acute High-risk abdominal surgery (AHA) is associated with high mortality rates, multiple postoperative complications and prolonged duration of hospital admission. A recent study revealed very low level of physical performance in the first postoperative week in patients undergoing AHA. Furthermore the included patients who were non-independently mobilized or had low level of 24-hour physical activity more often experienced a pulmonary complication. Studies examining the feasibility of early and intensive mobilization are needed, prior to investigating the effect of the intervention in an Randomised Controlled Trial. The purpose of this study is evaluating the feasibility of early and intensive mobilization during the first week postoperatively among patients who receive Acute High-Risk Abdominal Surgery (AHA). The aim is also to describe physical performance, physical activity, pulmonary function and health-related quality of life, as well as barriers to mobilization following AHA surgery.
