Surgery--Complications
Conditions
Brief summary
In this study patients with elective surgery will wear two devices (HealthDot and Elan) after surgery in hospital and after discharge at home for up to 2 weeks (HealthDot) or 3 weeks (Elan). The HealthDot will measure heart rate, posture, activity and respiratory rate which are stored on the device as well as sent to Philips. The Elan device will measure PPG and accelerometer data which is transferred to Philips. The data collected will be used for algorithm development. Data will be analysed retrospectively and compared to readmission and adverse events to see if the events could have been predicted due to the collected data by the devices. No clinical decisions will be based on the measurements done during the study.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity and specificity | 3 weeks | Evaluate the sensitivity and specificity for the prediction of deterioration after surgery using the data from both devices. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy HealthDot | 2 weeks | Evaluate if the calculated heart rate and respiratory rate data collected by HealthDot are accurate compared to a gold standard as used in the hospital |
| Comfort of wearing measured by questionnaire | at week 2 | Comfort of wearing the HealthDot will be assessed by VAS scale 1-10 while 1 beeing very comfortable, and 10 very uncomfortable |
| Accuracy Elan | 3 weeks | Evaluate if the calculated heart rate and respiratory rate data collected by Elan are accurate compared to a gold standard as used in the hospital |
