This trial compares continuous vital sign monitoring with standard spot checks for patients recovering from non-cardiac surgery. It aims to see if constant monitoring can improve safety and outcomes.
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 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.
This study compares two ways of monitoring patients after major surgery: continuous monitoring with a non‑invasive device versus the usual periodic checks. It may help find out which method is better at keeping you safe during recovery.
