Our goal was to determine the time to mobilization after this surgery and the factors associated with early mobilization.Methods: This was a predefined substudy of the POWER.2 study, a prospective cohort study conducted in patients undergoing THA and TKA at 131 Spanish hospitals. The primary outcome was the time until mobilization after surgery as well as determining those perioperative factors associated with early mobilization after surgery.Results: A total of 6093 patients were included. The median time to achieve mobilization after the end of the surgery was 24 hours [16-30]. 4,222 (69.3%) patients moved inenAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Total hip arthroplastyTotal knee arthroplastyEnhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)Early mobilizationLocal anesthesiaTotal joint arthroplastyLength-of-stayFast-track hipEnhanced recoveryPreoperative anemiaSurgeryReplacementManagementStatementEfficacyresearch articleopen access10.1016/j.bjane.2021.05.0082352-2291https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bjane.2021.05.008922171300001
