Summary

After gastrointestinal or cancer surgery, it's hard to know when it's safe to start rehabilitation. This study tests an AI tool that analyzes hospital data to predict which patients are ready for early rehab. The tool gives a simple yes/no answer to help doctors decide. The study will enroll 103 adults and track how often patients need extra care within 30 days after early transfer to rehab.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
AI-based clinical decision support tool (DESIRE)
What this could lead to
If successful, this tool could help doctors make safer, faster decisions about when patients can begin rehabilitation after surgery, potentially reducing hospital stays and complications.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 103 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The AI tool is not a replacement for clinical judgment and may not work as expected in different hospital settings.
