Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - In-Bed Cycle Ergometer
Other interventions - Routine PT

Experimental: In-Bed Cycle Ergometer + Routine PT - Patients will receive 30 minutes of in-bed cycling once per day, 5 days per week, while they remain in the ICU, for up to a maximum of 28 days. They will also receive routine physiotherapy.

Active comparator: Routine PT - Patients will receive routine physiotherapy interventions per current institutional practice


Treatment: Devices: In-Bed Cycle Ergometer
Physiotherapists will place the patient's legs in a specialized in-bed cycle ergometer allowing for gentle leg exercise. Exercise can performed in passive, active-assisted, or active mode.

Other interventions: Routine PT
Includes, based on the patient's alertness and medical stability, activities to maintain or increase limb range of motion and strength, in- and out- of bed mobility, ambulation, and assistance with optimizing airway clearance and respiratory function.
