Evaluation of an Application Allowing Physical Activity to Get Information on Their Physical Activity in the First Days Following Thoracic Surgery
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Physical activity measure for Physical Inactivity and Post-Surgical Complication. Completed, enrolled 28 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Although there is a strong physiological rationale for the benefit of post-operative mobilization, the evidence supporting these effects in surgical cohorts is conflicting, and there is a lack of research to guide the clinical implementation of early mobilization protocols. There is also a need to better evaluate the physical activity performed by physical activity tients outside the supervised mobilization protocol, to better understand its potential benefits on post-operative recovery. In adition, the objective measurement of physical activity has several advantages over declarative measures.
