The study sample consisted of 42 patients, 21 of whom were the control group and 21 were the intervention group, who had undergone major abdominal open surgery between May and September 2019. The routine mobilization follow-up approach of the intensive care unit was applied to the patients in the control group, and the early mobilization protocol developed by using up-to-date guidelines and expert opinions were applied to the patients in the intervention group. In the study, the data of the control group were firstly collected, then the early mobilization protocol was introduced to the patients through the training brochure prepared and then data of the intervention group were collected.
