Continuous monitoring after non-cardiac surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 45 years old or older.
- You are scheduled for elective (planned) non-cardiac surgery on your abdomen or chest.
- After surgery, you will stay in an advanced recovery unit overnight and then go to a regular hospital ward.
- You do not have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm).
- You are not pregnant, and you are not having emergency surgery.
- You have not chosen a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order or end-of-life care.

This trial tests if using a home monitoring device after major surgery can help catch problems early. You or your caregiver would take your vital signs (like heart rate and blood pressure) daily and share them with your care team.
This study looks at how often heart or blood vessel problems happen after surgery that is not on the heart. If you are 65 or older and will stay in the hospital for at least 3 days after your surgery, you may help doctors learn how to better prevent these problems.
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.
This trial is testing a wearable monitor that keeps track of your vital signs after surgery. It is for people who are having non-cardiac surgery and have certain health risks, and will help doctors spot problems early.
This study tests a new device that tracks your vital signs (like heart rate and oxygen levels) continuously after surgery, even when you go home. It may help doctors catch problems early and improve your recovery.
This trial tests if keeping a close watch on vital signs like heart rate and breathing using wearable sensors can help spot problems earlier in people recovering from stomach or bowel surgery. It aims to make the recovery safer and catch any complications sooner.
