Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Length of functional rehabilitationThrough study completion, minimum 7 days

Investigators will calculate preperative Activity Counts per day as a baseline then being compared to postoperative Activity Counts per day until one day when both Counts is equal. Length of functional rehabilitation defines that duration from surgical day to the day when both Counts is equal.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of recoveryThrough study completion, an average of 14 days

The translation of the Danish version of the postoperative quality of recovery scale QoR-15D is used to evaluate the quality of care.

The quantization of fatigueThrough study completion, an average of 14 days

The Christensen Fatigue Scale (ChrFS) will be utilized to evaluate the degree of fatigue.

The quantization of painThrough study completion, an average of 14 days

The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (excruciating pain) is used to score postoperative pain.

The quantization of vomiting.Through study completion, an average of 14 days

The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (nothing) to 10 (worest) is used to score postoperative vomiting.

The quantization of nausea.Through study completion, an average of 14 days

The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (nothing) to 10 (worest) is used to score postoperative nausea.

The quantization of Activity CountsThrough study completion, an average of 14 days

Investigators will use Electric Devices to record Activity Counts per day. Activity counts will be classified as sedentary behavior (SB) \< 1303 counts/min (cpm), low intensity physical activity (LIPA) 1303 cpm - \< 2588 cpm, and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) ≧2588 cpm.

Length of sleep timeThrough study completion, an average of 14 days

Investigators will use devices to record the specific sleep time for patients.

The quantization of morbidityup to 30 days

The Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) is applied as a standard to grade the morbidity in 30 days after surgery.

The quantization of mortalityup to 30 days

Investigators will investigate whether patients will experience unexpected death in 30 days after surgery
