Can your phone help you heal? trial tests tech for cancer surgery recovery
NCT ID NCT03623464
Summary
This study is testing whether using a Fitbit and a mobile app can help patients recover better after major surgery for gastrointestinal cancers. About 107 patients were randomly assigned to either use the app and tracker along with their usual care, or to receive usual care alone. The goal is to see if tracking daily activity and health can help doctors spot problems early and prevent patients from needing to go back to the hospital.
