Background: Early mobilization is one of the essential components of
enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways and has been shown to reduce
complications and optimize patient outcomes. However, the effect of early
mobilization for patients who undergo trans-femoral cardiac catheterization and
the time for optimal mobilization timing remains controversial. We aimed to
identify the safety of early mobilization and provide the optimum timing for
early mobilization for patients undergoing trans-femoral cardiac catheterization.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane
databases of systematic reviews, CINAHL, SCOPUS, China National Knowledge
Infrastructure (CNKI), Wan Fang Database, and Chinese Science and Technology
Periodical Database (VIP) comprehensively for randomized controlled trials
associated with early mobilization, to explore its effects on patients after a
trans-femoral cardiac catheterization. The risk of bias and heterogeneity of
studies was assessed using the Revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized
trials (RoB 2) and I
