In many hospitals, the physiotherapist manages different orthopaedic, neurological, cardiothoracic conditions. Previous studies suggest that intensity of physiotherapy reduce ICU stay and improve functional status. Although medical and nursing professions have provided 24-hour care, however great variability reported in aggregate sessions out of regular sessions given by physiotherapist. Methods: 100 clinically diagnosed with Moderate head injury subjects have participated in this study. Each individual was thoroughly examined and assessed through neurological assessment. These subjects were allocated in 2 groups (Intensive Physiotherapy group 3 physiotherapy sessions were given per day and Conventional group 2 physiotherapy sessions were given per day for five days per week for two consecutive weeks). Before and after the treatment protocol subjects were assessed for Consciousness, cognition and functional mobility by Glass Gow Coma scale, Mini-Mental State Examination and Chelsea Critical Care Physical Assessment Tool respectively. Rresult: Pre and post-treatment protocol was analyzed by GCS, MME and CPAx using paired and unpaired t-test. Data analysis showed significance for CPAx score (p=__ampersandsignlt;0.0001) by unpaired t-test. Conclusion: The study concluded that giving additional session to the moderate head injury individuals improve their functional mobility in the intensive care unit..&#13;
