Wearable Watch to Detect Complications After Lung 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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a smartwatch can detect atrial fibrillation in people who have had major chest surgery (like lung removal) within the last 48 hours. If successful, this could help catch heart rhythm problems early without extra hospital equipment.
This trial tests if using wearable activity monitors and a smartphone app can improve your recovery at home after lung cancer surgery. You may benefit by having extra support and monitoring while you heal.
This trial tests a system that uses wearable devices and a smartphone app to help manage your recovery after lung cancer surgery. If you qualify, you'll use these tools to track your progress at home, which may help you heal better and avoid complications.
This trial tests whether a small home monitoring device (Biobeat) can be used easily by people recovering from lung cancer surgery. You will wear a simple patch that tracks your vitals, and the data is sent to your care team, helping them check on you from home.
This study tests if wearing a smart watch or fitness tracker can help doctors monitor your recovery after lung cancer surgery. If you are having surgery for lung cancer, participating may give your care team more information to track your health.
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.
