NCT ID NCT06605066

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to validate physical activity algorithms in post-operative populations through raw accelerometer data collection using the ADI Study Watch 4.5 while in an in-patient setting. The secondary objective of the study is to collect skin temperature, photoplethysmography \[PPG\], Bioimpedance Analysis \[BIA\], heart rate \[HR\], SpO2, and electrodermal activity \[EDA\] using the ADI Study Watch 4.5. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can a wearable physical activity monitoring device assess patients\' activity levels with higher accuracy and precision compared to traditional physical activity monitoring methods during the post-operative period? * Do wearable devices placed on different body regions perform similarly in tracking physical activity during the post-operative period? * Do post-operative physical activity monitoring algorithms improve patient compliance, accelerate recovery, and reduce hospital stay duration? * Analysis of the activity tracking performance of a consumer device (Apple Watch) in patients after cardiac and thoracic surgery.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18, male or female * ASA Score II - III * Patients booked for a surgical procedure requiring general anesthesia care * The subject has had a surgical procedure ≤3 days prior to data collection * Expected duration of general anesthesia to be \> 1 hour * Expected to be transferred to the PACU from the operating room * Patients with an expected duration in the PACU ≥ 45 minutes * Expected to be transferred from the PACU to an in-patient setting * Must be able to understand and provide written consent * Must be willing and able to comply with study procedures and duration Exclusion Criteria: * The subject is unable or unwilling to provide written consent * The subject is unable or unwilling to comply with the study and duration * The subject has not yet recovered from the effects of anesthesia * The subject requires the use of a wheel chair * The subject has been diagnosed with a movement disorder such as Parkinson's disease, ataxia, dystonia, etc. * The subject has not yet recovered from knee or hip surgery * The subject has undergone orthopedic surgery within the last 2 years * The subject has an injury, deformity, or abnormality at the sensor site that in the opinion of the investigators would interfere with the sensors' function * The subject has any other condition, which in the opinion of the investigator would make them unsuitable for the study * The subject is pregnant, lactating, or trying to get pregnant. * Subjects with a history of severe contact allergies that may cause a reaction to standard adhesive materials found medical tape.
