Clinimetric properties of the Perme Intensive Care Unit Mobility Score -a multicenter study for minimum important difference and responsiveness analysis.

Background: The use of instruments in clinical practice with measurement properties tested is highly recommended, in order to provide adequate assessment and measurement of outcomes.

Objective: To calculate the minimum clinically important difference (MCID) and responsiveness of the Perme Intensive Care Unit Mobility Score (Perme Score).

Methods: This retrospective, multicentric study investigated the clinimetric properties of MCID, estimated by constructing the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC).

Relationship between Perme ICU Mobility Score and length of stay in patients after cardiac surgery.

Background: Patients undergoing cardiac surgery can experience functional impairment.

Objective: Assess the influence of Perme Score on the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay in patients after cardiac surgery. As a secondary objective, investigate if preoperative variables can predict the patient's mobility status after surgery.

Exploring half-metallic Co-based full Heusler alloys using a DFT+ method combined with linear response approach.

A density functional theory (DFT)+ method based on linear response (LR) theory was applied to investigate the electronic structures of a Co-based ternary full Heusler alloy CoYSi to explore half-metallic (HM) ferromagnets with a wide HM gap. The LR-based DFT+ calculations tend to obtain a reasonable correlation parameter for the Y site, while the correlation of the Co site misdirects to the unphysical ground state due to the overestimated parameter value that arises from the delocalized electronic structure of Co. Furthermore, we found that the HM gap of CoMnSi originates from the Co orbital in the conduction state and the Co-Mn hybridizing t orbital in the valence state around the Fermi energy.

Perme ICU Mobility Score (Perme Score) and the ICU Mobility Scale (IMS): translation and cultural adaptation for the Spanish language.

Introduction: The scales to measure functional mobility in critically ill patients were developed and validated in English, there is a need for these tools in Spanish speaking countries.

Objective: To perform translation, cultural adaptation and inter-rater reliability of the Spanish versions of the Perme Intensive Care Unit Mobility Score and IMS tools in ICU patients.

Methods: Translation and validation study between November 2016 and July 2017, following the COSMIN Protocol's recommendations.

Safety and Efficacy of Mobility Interventions in Patients with Femoral Catheters in the ICU: A Prospective Observational Study.

Introduction: There are limited data describing mobility interventions provided to patients with femoral catheters. The purpose of this study was to examine the incidence of femoral catheter related adverse effects during physical therapy (PT) sessions in a cardiovascular intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods: This was a prospective, observational study and included patients with at least one femoral catheter.
