This study described a focused early mobility protocol, sustained over 5 years, which is on time for therapy consults and patient mobilization at a single institution.
Methods: A formal ICU mobility protocol was implemented as part of a unit-wide ICU liberation bundle.

Introduction: Reactivation of herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a potential complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). Since different doses and durations of acyclovir prophylaxis may be utilized across transplant centers, this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a lower dose of acyclovir in preventing HSV and VZV reactivation in alloSCT recipients within our institution.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted for patients who underwent alloSCT between April 2016 and May 2023.
