NCT ID NCT06584825
First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study looks at whether using a device to continuously check heart rate, oxygen levels, and blood pressure after major abdominal or vascular surgery can help patients spend more days at home in the first month. About 110 adults will be randomly assigned to get either standard care or extra monitoring in the hospital and at home. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and might improve recovery.

What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 110 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The monitoring devices could cause false alarms or be inconvenient.
