Phone app vs. doctor: can a mobile tool catch infections after surgery?
NCT ID NCT04601376
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if a mobile monitoring tool could accurately identify surgical site infections (SSIs) in orthopedic surgery patients, compared to the usual manual review. The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. It was designed for adults who had orthopedic surgery and had access to a mobile phone.
