The use of mechanical ventilators aims to reestablish oxygen demand, ventilation and attenuate the respiratory workload in patients with respiratory failure. However, immobility in bed, due to prolonged mechanical ventilation, causes muscle atrophy by disuse, generating weakness in the respiratory and peripheral muscles, and a decrease in physical function and in the patient's quality of life. In view of this problem, this article aimed to analyze the importance of Early Mobilization (PM) for the recovery of patients submitted to mechanical ventilation based on the current literature. To reach this objective a bibliographic review was made searching databases such as MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online); SCIELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online); LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences), books and documents (guidelines and protocols), of articles in Portuguese and English, from 2007 to 2021. The analysis of the studies points out that PM in critically ill patients on prolonged mechanical ventilation is of fundamental importance and effectiveness. Some of the benefits of early mobility are reduced MV time, reduced ICU and hospital stay, increased muscle strength, maintenance/recovery of the individual's previous degree of functionality, reduced number of infections, reduced delirium and improved quality of life. We conclude that the implementation of early mobility protocols is extremely important for the care services and especially for the patient.
