First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aims to develop and validate a simple score that measures a patient's ability to walk just before and after outpatient surgery. Researchers will ask adult patients undergoing day surgery with sedation to answer questions about their walking. The goal is to create a reliable tool that helps medical teams assess recovery and safety in the immediate post-surgery period.
