Early Doppler-Assisted Mobilization in Adults After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Sponsor: Unidade Local de Saúde de Coimbra, EPE
Summary
Post-stroke mobilization remains a subject of ongoing debate. While early mobilization-particularly the first out-of-bed mobilization-has been associated with reduced systemic complications and earlier rehabilitation, it also carries potential risks, such as neurological deterioration in the presence of hemodynamic instability. In this study, the primary aim is to investigate whether early mobilization, guided by hemodynamic evaluation after acute ischemic stroke offers superior outcomes compared to standard clinical care.

Doppler-guided early mobilization
Individualized early mobilization after ischemic stroke, guided by hemodynamic assessment using carotid and transcranial Doppler ultrasound. The type and timing of mobilization are adjusted according to the presence of significant hemodynamic alterations.
