Postoperative Functional Recovery After Fast-track VATS Lobectomy
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Actiwatch 2 (Philips Respironics, Murrysville, USA) for Lung Neoplasms and 4 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The main aim of this research is to compare the functional recovery after discharge with the preoperative physical activity as a hypothesis generating study.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Actiwatch 2 is an unobtrusive, waterproof, light sensor and wrist-worn device (weight 16.0g, size 4.3 cm\* 2.3 cm\* 1.0 cm), containing a tri-axial accelerometer able to records a digitally integrated measure of gross motor activity (a piezoelectric sensor to detect vertical accelerations at the wrist between 0.5 and 2.0 g with a frequency response range between 0.35-7.5 Hz). Activity counts from the device reflect the peak acceleration detected over each epoch and are used in determining sleep and wake intervals, which can be used to rest-activity patterns, quality of physical activity and sleep for 15-60 seconds/ epoch, 24 hours/ day, 2 weeks.
