6. Conclusion
The findings of this study recommend that changing
patients’ position in the bed after CC is probably safe, and
they can be ambulated earlier in the post CC period than
the current practice protocols recommend. Changing
7. Recommendations
Further research is needed to determine the best
positioning protocol and the minimum time period that
patients are required to remain CBR in supine position after
CC. In addition, as people are used not to completely
expressing their subjective feelings, such as discomfort
and fatigue, developing subtler tools to assess comfort,
satisfaction and fatigue may be indicated.
