Summary

The proposed study will investigate the feasibility of using the Wake Forest Real-time Location System (RTLS) in monitoring patient movement during their in-hospital postoperative recovery. The study will involve patients who have undergone surgery requiring inpatient admission to the surgical ward. Actual patient movement will be monitored during their postoperative recovery and compared with data recorded by the Wake Forest location system. In this small pilot study, a subgroup of participants will be randomized to two cohorts, continuous walking and interval walking. Tolerability of the varied walking intensity will be measured.
