Patients who
received mechanical ventilation and
physical therapy had a lower median
GCS at each physical therapy session
than those who did not receive
mechanical ventilation (9.3 [25%-
75% IQR=6.9-10.3] versus 14.8
[25%-75% IQR=14-15], PC.001).
Physical therapy sessions for patients
needing mechanical ventilation were
not statistically shorter than those
for patients not needing mechanical
ventilation in the NICU (20.0 minutes
[25%-75%IQR= 15.0-25.0] versus
25.0 minutes [25%-75%
IQR=15.0-30.0], P=.06)
