Wearable Health Technology for Perioperative Risk Assessment

Completed
Conditions
Surgery--Complications
Interventions
Other: 6 Minute walking test
Other: Frailty questionaires
Registration Number
NCT05083598
Lead Sponsor
Istituto Clinico Humanitas
Brief Summary

Accurate and timely preoperative identification of high-risk patients provides opportunities to better inform and manage them. Current predictors for perioperative complications are either resource consuming or have low accuracy. The primary objective of the study is to assess if Wearable Devices may be an alternative to assess cardiopulmonary function, with low risks and lower costs.
