Monitoring complications after cancer surgery
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a smart monitoring system to watch for complications after major cancer surgery. It may help doctors catch problems early so you can recover better.

This trial tests a system that continuously checks vital signs (like heart rate and breathing) using wireless sensors and sends automatic alerts if you seem to be getting worse. It may help clinicians spot problems sooner whether you’re being monitored at home or around a major surgery hospital stay.
This trial tests a remote monitoring system to keep an eye on patients after colorectal surgery. It aims to see if this helps recovery and reduces hospital readmissions.
This study looks at a “risk-based plan” to help guide care after major cancer surgery, aiming to improve recovery and outcomes. You may be in the study when you’re about to have elective (planned) high-risk cancer surgery and then again just before hospital discharge.
This trial is testing whether wearable sensors can help doctors monitor patients more closely after major surgery to catch problems early. You might be able to join if you are having a surgery with a cut of 2 inches or longer.
This study looks at whether careful monitoring (watch and wait) is a good option for people with rectal cancer who have already had certain treatments. It aims to see if this approach can help avoid major surgery.
This study watches how your body's recovery signs change after major gastrointestinal surgery, to catch problems early and improve your care.
