Summary

Although there is a strong physiological rationale for the benefit of post-operative mobilization, the evidence supporting these effects in surgical cohorts is conflicting, and there is a lack of research to guide the clinical implementation of early mobilization protocols. There is also a need to better evaluate the physical activity performed by physical activity tients outside the supervised mobilization protocol, to better understand its potential benefits on post-operative recovery. In adition, the objective measurement of physical activity has several advantages over declarative measures.

Detailed description

Prolonged immobilization after surgery is known to have detrimental effects. Although postoperative recommendations favor early mobilization, the lack of quantification of physical activity poses a problem for the implementation of early mobilization protocols.. An application named "ACTIM" has been developed with the aim of automating the personalized assessment of postoperative physical activity. The healthcare team (nurses or physiotherapists…), will share the information with the patient and will complete the assessment using personalized physical activity objectives for the day. The purpose of this study is to assess this application in real-life settings to provide patients with information on their physical activity after lung resection by thoracoscopy or robotic surgery. This assessment will serve as a reference for future studies.
