The Australian New Zealand Intensive Care Society (ANZICS) recently hosted their annual conference in Christchurch. Among those attending was RBWH physiotherapist, Elise. 😊

Throughout her career, Elise has had a passion for helping patients recover and mobilise, an important step in recovering from a stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

"Mobilising ICU patients is critical to patient recovery," Elise said.

"Early mobilisation reduces the risk of ICU-acquired weakness, improves functional outcomes and can even shorten the length of their hospital stay."

Over the last two years, Elise has turned this passion into research across 10 hospitals in Queensland, including RBWH, on how to safely mobilise ICU patients while receiving medication to support their blood pressure.

Elise was invited to present on her studies at the ANZICS conference and was awarded the Best Allied Health Paper award for her work.

👏 Congratulations, Elise on your award and research on this important area of critical care.
