Wearable Device-Based Intervention for Promoting Patient Physical Activity After Lung Cancer Surgery: A Nonrandomized Clinical Trial
Summary
Wearable devices can help lung cancer patients recover faster after surgery. This study looked at how using a wearable device affected physical activity, lung function, and quality of life after surgery.
Key Findings
Patients using the wearable device showed improvements in daily steps, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and reduced symptoms like dyspnea and pain compared to those receiving usual care.
Practical Solutions
Integrating wearable devices in post-surgery care can lead to personalized rehabilitation strategies, enhancing patient recovery and overall well-being.
Value
Using wearable devices in perioperative exercise interventions can improve physical activity levels and quality of life for lung cancer patients, showing promise for personalized rehabilitation approaches.
