Feasibility of perioperative remote monitoring of patient-generated health data in complex surgical oncology.
Article in Journal of surgical oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe feasibility of remote perioperative telemonitoring of patient-generated physiologic health data and patient-reported outcomes in a high risk complex general and urologic oncology surgery population is evaluated.
methodsComplex general surgical/urologic oncology patients wore a pedometer, completed ePROs (electronic patient-reported outcome surveys) and record their vitals (weight, pulse, pulse oximetry, blood pressure, and temperature) via a telehealth app platform. Feasibility (% adherence) was assessed as the primary outcome measure.
resultsTwenty-one patients with a median age 58 (32-82) years were included. The readmission rate was 33% and the incidence of ≥Grade 3a morbidity was 24%. Adherence to vital sign and ePRO measurements was 95% before surgery, 91% at discharge, and 82%, 68%, and 64% at postdischarge d2, 7, 14, and 30, respectively. There was significant worsening of mobility, self-care and usual daily activity at postdischarge d2 compared to preoperative baseline (p < 0.05). Median daily preoperative steps taken by patients with <Grade 3a versus ≥Grade 3a postoperative morbidity was 6062 versus 4166 (p < 0.05). Of those interviewed, 87% (13/15) viewed vital sign devices as helpful in recovery.
conclusionsTelemonitoring is feasible in a general surgical and urologic oncology setting. Future studies will ascertain optimal patient selection, duration, and extent of perioperative monitoring.
