Remote Telemonitoring to Improve Prehabilitation and Surgical Outcomes of Patients Undergoing Elective Abdominal Surgery
There is data confirming that simple tests of physical capability, such as the timed "get-up-and-go" test and the 6-minute walk test, correlate with surgical outcomes. It is reasonable to assume that preoperative telemonitoring, which allows for the tracking of more variables over a wider range of activities, could provide a significantly more accurate picture of a patient's physical fitness than a short one-time test performed in the clinic setting.
Almost half of the patients who are readmitted at Washington University are readmitted for less than 4 days. The readmitted patients usually present with sepsis, are treated with antibiotics and percutaneous drainage, and are discharged home relatively quickly. Earlier identification of these patients, prior to the development of sepsis, would reduce the risks to the patient and allow for outpatient management.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Effectiveness of the study intervention during the preoperative period to increase patients compliance with prehabilitation goals as measured by average steps per day
Time Frame: Baseline through 30 days after surgery discharge (approximately 45 days)
|
Baseline through 30 days after surgery discharge (approximately 45 days)
|
|
Patient compliance of telemonitoring with activity trackers as measured by percentage of time the patient is wearing the device properly
Time Frame: Baseline through 30 days after surgery discharge (approximately 45 days)
|
-The number of heart rate data points that are collected per day is used as a proxy for determining the amount of time the patient is wearing the device properly.
