Brief Summary  
Aims and Objectives of the Study:
(1) To determine the effect of very early mobilisation on activities of daily living following acute stroke.
(2) To determine the potential adverse events after very early mobilisation following acute stroke.
(3) To determine the effect of very early mobilisation on quality of life following acute stroke.
(4) To determine the effect of very early mobilisation on psychological well being following acute stroke.
(5) To determine the effect of very early mobilisation on the level of disability following acute stroke.

Need for the Study:
There is paucity of data regarding the effect of very early mobilisation on functional status following acute stroke. Stroke patients are at very high risk of developing complications, with an estimated 85% experiencing hospital related health problems. There is considerable evidence that early mobilisation is feasible and safe. There is no evidence to suggest that the practice should be discontinued in countries where very early mobilisation is a well established intervention but at the same time there is scarcity of evidences to suggest that the practice should be adopted more broadly.
