Using a smart device to predict surgery complications
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether a smart device (like a fitness tracker) can help doctors notice early signs of complications before and after surgery. It may help prevent problems and improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You can understand French.

This study checks whether common wearable devices can predict or detect problems after treatment or surgery. If you join, the researchers will compare what the wearable shows with what happens to you medically, to see if earlier warnings are possible.
This trial uses a smartwatch and smart ring to collect health data after elective surgery. The goal is to see if these sensors can help predict who might need to return to the hospital, so doctors can provide better follow-up care.
This study uses a wristwatch-like device to measure your movement and body functions before and after surgery to help predict which older patients might have complications. The goal is to improve safety planning for people 65 and older having surgery.
This study tests whether a wearable device (a smartwatch-like device) worn after lung or chest surgery can help doctors catch complications early by monitoring your heart rate, activity, and other vital signs. The goal is to catch problems sooner so you can get help faster.
This trial tracks how your blood pressure and heart rate change during surgery to see if these patterns can predict complications or death. It may help doctors make surgeries safer for high-risk patients.
This trial tests a virtual follow-up program after surgery, using remote automated monitoring and tablet-based check-ins. It may help with safer recovery by letting the care team follow how you’re doing after you leave the hospital.
