Early mobilization is an effective way to improve the physical function of critically ill patients, but there are numerous barriers to mobilization. One such is an early ward transfer. Mobilization is often insufficient in a ward, and the patient cannot be liberated from mechanical ventilation. We experienced a case of a successfully liberated patient from prolonged mechanical ventilation in long-term mobilization as orchestrated by a multidisciplinary team in the ICU. A 45-year-old female was admitted to the ICU and placed on mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS). We deployed a mobilization protocol, which was mostly restricted to passive exercise in the first 2 weeks after admission. On day 30, the patient recovered from unstable respiration, but could not be liberated from mechanical ventilation because of muscle weakness, diagnosed as ICU-acquired weakness. The patient was gradually mobilized and transferred to a chair on day 35, and she was able to stand on day 56. On day 65, she was completely liberated from mechanical ventilation and discharged from the ICU 70 days after her initial admission. Long-term mobilization is important for liberation of a patient from prolonged mechanical ventilation as well as early mobilization in the ICU.
