Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app called MAELA® can help people recover better after surgery for digestive cancers. About 555 adults will use the app to report symptoms for 90 days after surgery, while doctors monitor alerts. The goal is to see if the app reduces serious complications and hospital readmissions compared to standard care.
