Association of Wearable Activity Monitors With Post-Operative Activity Level Among Cardiovascular Surgical Patients

NCT04216238 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 12

Last updated 2026-03-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Early mobility in the post cardiovascular surgical patient can dramatically impact patient outcomes. Utilizing an innovative strategy, like a wearable activity monitor, can potentially provide: accurate data on post-operative mobility level; increased motivation and self-efficacy in the recovering patient; data to potentially drive post-operative mobility goal setting. Use of a wearable activity monitor will reduce time needed to return to pre-operative activity level in the cardiovascular surgical patient.
