Competence during the first postoperative in-bed turning |
The patient's first postoperative in-bed turning, the intensive care nurse scored the patient's dependence-independence status/degree with the in-bed turning section of the Observer Mobility Scale. The Observer Mobility Scale: During the same four activities following the surgery, the patient's dependence-independence status on the nurse is scored between "1- performing the activity independently" and "5-inability to perform the activity despite help". The score that can be obtained from each item varies between 1 and 5, and the total scale score ranges from 4 to 20. Increased scores indicate inadequate movement skills. |

Pain during the first postoperative in-bed turning |
The patient scored the degree of the pain during in-bed turning with the related section of the Patient Mobility Scale. The Patient Mobility Scale: The level of pain and difficulty experienced during four activities performed after surgery is evaluated using a 15-cm-wide visual analog. The score that can be obtained from each item varies between 0-15, and the total scale score ranges from 0 to 120. Increased scores indicate an increased level of pain related to the activity. |

Strain during the first postoperative in-bed turning |
The patient scored the degree of the strain during in-bed turning with the related section of the Patient Mobility Scale. The Patient Mobility Scale: The level of pain and difficulty experienced during four activities performed after surgery is evaluated using a 15-cm-wide visual analog. The score that can be obtained from each item varies between 0-15, and the total scale score ranges from 0 to 120. Increased scores indicate an increased level of difficulty related to the activity. |

Competence during the first postoperative mobilization |
Following the mobilization, the intensive care nurse evaluated the patient's dependence-independence status/degree during the mobilization steps with the Observer Mobility Scale. The Observer Mobility Scale: During the same four activities following the surgery, the patient's dependence-independence status on the nurse is scored between "1- performing the activity independently" and "5-inability to perform the activity despite help". The score that can be obtained from each item varies between 1 and 5, and the total scale score ranges from 4 to 20. Increased scores indicate inadequate movement skills. |

Pain during the first postoperative mobilization |
Following the mobilization, the patient evaluated the degree of pain during mobilization with the Patient Mobility Scale. The Patient Mobility Scale: The level of pain and difficulty experienced during four activities performed after surgery is evaluated using a 15-cm-wide visual analog. The score that can be obtained from each item varies between 0-15, and the total scale score ranges from 0 to 120. Increased scores indicate an increased level of pain related to the activity. |

The willingness of the patients for mobilization |
Their willingness for mobilization was evaluated by the intensive care nurse just before the first mobilization by asking the patients and using the Numeric Rating Scale. The scores on the scale range between "0 - I'm not ready for mobilization" and "10 - I feel ready for mobilization" regarding the pre-mobilization willingness. |

Anxiety levels of the patients |
Mobilization-related anxiety levels of the patients were evaluated with the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory filled out by the patient just before and after the first mobilization. The state anxiety scale consists of 20 items. It evaluates the feelings or behaviors experienced by the individual at a certain time or under certain conditions. The trait anxiety scale, on the other hand, requires the individual to describe how they generally feel. It consists of 20 items. The score that can be obtained from the scale ranges between 20 and 80. A high score indicates a high level of anxiety. |
