    Wearable devices can provide continuous, objective recovery metrics for lung cancer surgical patients, addressing gaps in perioperative functional recovery assessment.

  • 2

    The systematic review included eight reports from seven cohorts, highlighting the feasibility and potential benefits of wearable technology in monitoring recovery.

  • 3

    Wearable-enhanced preconditioning significantly reduced prolonged hospital stays in lung cancer patients, demonstrating improved recovery outcomes.

  • 4

    Observational studies indicated weak but significant associations between perioperative step counts and recovery outcomes in lung cancer surgery.

  • 5

    Current evidence on wearable devices in lung cancer surgery is sparse and heterogeneous, warranting cautious interpretation and further research.
