Clinical Scorecard: Utilization of Wearable Devices for Monitoring Recovery in Lung Cancer Surgical Patients: A Systematic Review of Feasibility, Outcomes, and Evidence Quality

At a Glance

CategoryDetail
ConditionLung Cancer Surgery
Key MechanismsWearable devices for continuous monitoring of activity and physiologic data.
Target PopulationAdults undergoing lung cancer surgery or clinically relevant pulmonary resection.
Care SettingPerioperative care in thoracic oncology.

Key Highlights

  • Wearable devices may provide objective recovery metrics.
  • Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathways emphasize early mobilization.
  • Feasibility studies support the use of wearable devices in monitoring recovery.
  • Wearable-enhanced preconditioning reduced prolonged hospital stay.
  • Current evidence remains sparse and heterogeneous.

Guideline-Based Recommendations

Diagnosis

  • Assessment of functional recovery and symptom-driven volatility.

Management

  • Incorporation of wearable devices for perioperative monitoring.

Monitoring & Follow-up

  • Continuous tracking of activity and physiologic data.

Risks

  • Potential for indirect evidence and measurement gaps.

Patient & Prescribing Data

Adults undergoing lung cancer surgery.

Wearable devices can facilitate monitoring and support behavior-change interventions.

Clinical Best Practices

  • Utilize wearable devices for objective recovery assessment.
  • Implement early mobilization strategies as part of ERAS pathways.
  • Monitor postoperative recovery trajectories with wearable technology.
