Comparative Effectiveness Trial of Perioperative Telemonitoring for Functional Recovery and Symptoms
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Best Practice, Functional Assessment, and 5 other interventions for Digestive System Carcinoma and 3 related conditions. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 398 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
This phase III trial compares a home-based telemonitoring program that collects symptom and daily step information to surgeon only care in improving recovery and stopping complications within 30 days after surgery in patients with gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or gynecologic cancer who are scheduled to undergo abdominal surgery. Patients may experience a decrease in functional capacity and experience symptoms like pain and fatigue after surgery, and this may change their ability to walk and function. Home-based telemonitoring of patient symptoms and their ability to walk and function after surgery may help doctors and nurses find and treat problems early, which may improve the patient's recovery and lower the number of complications after surgery.
