[Early mobilization in the acute stage of myocardial infarction long term results]
Abstract
A report is presented on the continuation of a controlled study on early mobilization after acute myocardial infarction performed at the Cantonal Hospital of Geneva. Detailed follow-up studies were made in the patients from the original study 4 years on average after the myocardial infarction. It is well known that early mobilization offers many advantages over prolonged bed rest. The present study demonstrates that early mobilization after acute myocardial infarction involves no longterm risks.
