Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Physical activity recovery ratePostoperative day 4 and 5

Baseline physical activity is measured before admission. Specifically, on presurgery day 3 and 4, patients wear accelerometer. The average physical activity of presurgery day 3 and 4 is calculated and be regarded as baseline physical activity.

After surgery, the average physical activity of postoperative day 4 and 5 is calculated. The ratio of the average physical activity of postoperative day 4 and 5 versus baseline physical activity is estimated. The ratio is physical activity recovery rate.
