Correct Mobilization Time After Implantation of an Intracardiac Electronic Device Implantation

Safety and Benefits of Mobilization at 4 Hours Compared to 24 Hours After Implantation of an Intracardiac Electronic Device: a Randomized Clinical Trial of Non-inferiority, Open and Controlled in Parallel Groups

Bedrest is usually prescribed for patients management after cardiac electronic device implantation (CIED) in order to prevent complication. Due to the lack of guidelines available on the timing of postoperative mobilization management, the aim of the study is to evaluate the safety of early mobilization, comparing mobilization at 4-h against day-after procedure.
