Summary

The overarching goal of this research is to use machine learning analysis of high-resolution data-collected by wearable technology-of cardiothoracic surgical patients to assess recovery and detect complications at their earliest stage

Conditions

  • Surgery--Complications

Interventions

DEVICE

Device: Wearable Device

A Wearable Device will be placed on the wrist of the patient \~30 days prior to the patient's scheduled surgery, removed during the operation, and replaced for \~180 days post-operatively. The device will record activity in terms of steps, sleep quality, heart rate, etc.
