Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Physical activity measured with an accelerometer	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Secondary outcome of this study are the factors potential associated with the level of physical activity, i.e. delirium, level of functionality, level of disability, severity of illness, comfort, pain, analgesic/sedative treatment, presence of a urinary catheter or central venous catheter, supplemental oxygen therapy and mobility restrictions. In children admitted to the PICU there are more potential associated factors, namely: PICU length of stay, neuromuscular blockage, and mechanical ventilation.	—
