Official title: Evaluation of the Early Mobilization Protocol Established in Accordance With Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Guidelines in Patients Undergoing Gastrointestinal Surgery
In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the early mobilization protocol created in accordance with the accelerated recovery guide after surgery in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.
Read the detailed description
This study is an experimental study. The participants in the control group are applied to the mobilization applied in routine clinics. The participants in the intervention group are applied to the mobilization protocol created in accordance with the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) guidelines. It is planned to evaluate the postoperative mobilization process of both groups.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Early Mobilization ProtocolProcedure or surgery
Also called Early Mobilization Protocol
The intervention is applied from the first day after surgery until discharge. (including the day of discharge).
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Mobilization Performed in Routine Clinic Group | No intervention | Participants undergoing gastrointestinal surgery will receive routine clinic mobilization. The investigator will not perform any interventions. |
| Early Mobilization Protocol Created in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Guidelines Group | Experimental | Participants undergoing gastrointestinal surgery will watch a video 1 day before surgery that includes information about the importance of mobilization and the process.
The participant will be applied a mobilization protocol created in line with the postoperative mobilization eras (enhanced recovery after surgery) guidelines. Receives: Procedure: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Early Mobilization Protocol |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The effect of the ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) early mobilization protocol on the number of steps taken daily after surgery
The number of steps taken by the participant daily after surgery will be measured via a phone pedometer application (StepsApp).
Measured: From admission to discharge, up to 1 week
The effect of the ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) early mobilization protocol on the distance moved after surgery
The daily distance moved by the participant after surgery will be measured via a phone pedometer application (StepsApp).
Measured: From admission to discharge, up to 1 week
The effect of the ERAS early mobilization protocol on the recovery of the gastrointestinal system after surgery
The researcher will record the day the participant first passed gas after surgery and the date of his/her first defecation.
Measured: From admission to discharge, up to 1 week
The effect of the ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) early mobilization protocol on the level of ability to perform daily living activities after surgery
The researcher makes the measurement with the Modified Barthel Index scale. Modified Barthel Index: The highest score is 100, the lowest score is 0. The patient is stated as fully dependent in the range of 0-20 points, highly dependent in the range of 21-61 points, moderately dependent in the range of 62-90 points, slightly dependent in the range of 91-99 points, and fully independent in the range of 100 points. Daily evaluations are made until discharge after surgery.
Measured: (From admission to discharge, up to 1 week) and (When he comes for a check-up 1 week after discharge)
