Abstract
PubMed, EMBASE, and CINAHL databases were searched from January 1, 2020, through April 1, 2022. Selected studies included individuals hospitalized with severe COVID-19 and provided objective criteria for clinical decision making for mobility interventions. A total of 1464 publications were assessed for eligibility and data extraction. The PRISMA-ScR Checklist and established guidelines for reporting for scoping reviews were followed. Twelve articles met inclusion criteria: 5 CPGs and 7 implementation articles. Objective clinical criteria and guidelines for implementation of early rehabilitation demonstrated variable agreement across systems. No significant adverse events were reported. Sixty percent (3/5) of CPGs restrict mobility for individuals requiring ventilatory support of more than 60% Fio2 (fraction of inspired oxygen) and/or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) greater than 10-cm H2O (positive end-expiratory pressure). Preliminary evidence from implementation studies may suggest that some individuals with COVID-19 requiring enhanced ventilatory support outside of established parameters may be able to safely participate in mobility-related interventions, though further research is needed to determine safety and feasibility to guide clinical decision making.
