AI tool aims to predict Post-Surgery complications in breast cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07236658
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is developing an AI model to predict complications like lymphedema, pain, and shoulder problems after breast cancer surgery. Researchers will collect data from 133 women before and after surgery to train the AI. The goal is to create a tool that helps doctors identify high-risk patients early and intervene to prevent these issues.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a tool that helps doctors predict and prevent complications like lymphedema and pain after breast cancer surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study focused on developing a prediction model, not testing a treatment. The AI may not be accurate enough for real-world use.
