Wearable devices track lung cancer recovery after surgery
NCT ID NCT07288710
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study watches 300 lung cancer patients to see how they recover after one of two surgeries: removing a small part of the lung (sublobar resection) or a larger section (lobectomy). Participants wear a digital device and answer questions about pain, cough, and tiredness. The goal is to learn which surgery leads to a faster, smoother recovery.
