As part of a broader ERAS implementation plan, an early postoperative enforced
mobilisation protocol was implemented in the surgical gastrointestinal ward of VU University
Medical Centre. The protocol included structured mobilisation by a nurse and walking under
the supervision of a physiotherapist, starting within 24 hours of surgery. The protocol is based
on literature describing enforced mobilisation within ERAS programmes [6,12,13] and
expertise of the hospital staff involved (i.e. surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses and
physiotherapists). The protocol is supported by the evidence-based consensus review of the
ERAS group [11], which recommends that a prescheduled care plan should be made to
mobilise the patient. However, the feasibility of early postoperative enforced mobilisation on
a ward with a heterogeneous group of patients with various types of gastrointestinal cancer is
unknown
