Description of intervention(s) / exposure
BEHAVIORAL - Early activity and mobilisation

Experimental: Early activity and Mobilisation intervention - Patients will be assessed daily by an ICU physiotherapist using the ICU Mobility Scale (IMS) to determine the dosage and type of active exercises the patient will receive, using the early activity and mobilisation protocol. This protocol is hierarchical, with the objective of each intervention session beginning with the highest level of activity possible for the longest time possible, which then steps down to lower levels of activity if the patient fatigues. The intervention will be administered on all days in which the patient is admitted to ICU during the index hospitalisation, censored at 28days after.

No intervention: Standard of care - The control group will receive standard care from physiotherapy staff not involved in delivering the intervention. We have previously established that standard care in Australia for a patient receiving prolonged IMV (control group intervention) frequently involves no active exercise out of bed.


BEHAVIORAL: Early activity and mobilisation
The early activity and mobilisation intervention is comprised of exercises based on a reproducible, physiological approach using both strength and functional activities

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Aged 18 years or older.
2. Intubated and expected to remain invasively mechanically ventilated the day after tomorrow.
3. Sufficient cardiovascular stability to make mobilisation potentially possible, as indicated by:

4. current combined noradrenaline/adrenaline infusion rate of = 0.2 mcg/kg/min, OR if noradrenaline/adrenaline infusion rate has increased by more than 25% in the last 6 hours, dose must be <0.1 mcg/kg/min.
5. most recent cardiac index = 2.0 L/min/m2 (where measured)
6. no current requirement for VA ECMO
4. Sufficient respiratory stability to make mobilisation potentially possible, as indicated by:

1. current FiO2 = 0.6
2. current PEEP = 16 cm H20
