AbstractThe use of bed rest in medicine dates back to Hippocrates, who first recommended bed rest as a restorative measure for pain. With the formalization of prenatal care in the early 1900s, maternal bed rest became a standard of care, especially toward the end of pregnancy. Antepartum bed rest is a common obstetric management tool, with up to 95% of

The loss of skeletal muscle with injury or critical illness can be dramatic. This review emphasizes the importance of skeletal muscle as a metabolic reserve. Changes in protein metabolism with bed rest alone and during physiological stress are discussed.

Bed rest is frequently prescribed for critically ill patients because it is assumed to be beneficial for preventing complications, for conserving scarce metabolic resources, and for providing patient comfort. Furthermore, higher levels of physical activity in critically ill patients have been assumed to be impractical or not feasible. Bed rest has been

Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae: twin research, 1985
AbstractA total of 146 twin pregnancies were studied to evaluate the importance of bed rest. A significantly reduced frequency of preterm delivery was found after bed rest in hospital as compared to bed rest at home or no bed rest at all. An increase in gestational age and in birth weight was seen after bed rest. No effect was found on the intrauterine

Physiology and Complications of Bed Rest
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1988Prolonged bed rest causes major cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, and neuropsychological changes. Complications often result from these effects of bed rest, especially when aging has already decreased the reserves in these systems. These problems can be limited by judicious prescription of modified bed rest.

Abstract Space flight has been shown to result in altered immune responses. The current study was designed to investigate this possibility by using the bed rest model of some space flight conditions. A large number of women are included as subjects in the study. The hypothesis being tested is: 60 days head-down tilt bed rest of humans will affect the

Although being bedridden might be an inevitable situation in some clinical conditions, the overlap of geriatric syndromes in aging patients due to frailty could lead to bed rest syndrome. Prolonged bed rest is associated with several time-dependent effects, and the effects of being bedridden have an impact on the whole organism.

To summarize existing data about the effectiveness of bed rest when used to improve various pregnancy outcomes and to determine how often bed rest is used and the cost associated with its use.We used the MEDLINE data base to search for all English language papers evaluating the effectiveness of bed rest in pregnancy.
