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 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 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 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 tests a new way to monitor patients after surgery to remove the esophagus, using a computer algorithm to spot complications early. If you are having this surgery for esophageal cancer, this might help you recover more safely.
This study looks at whether tracking early recovery signs after major gastrointestinal surgery can help identify patients at higher risk for complications.
This study looks at patients who've had major abdominal, bone, or blood-vessel surgery to understand what factors make some people more likely to have complications afterward. It analyzes information already collected from hospitals to help doctors better predict and prevent problems.
