NCT03491137

Brief Summary

A high percentage of patients undergoing major abdominal surgery will develop a postoperative complication. Our hypothesis is that by observing postoperative patients with continuous wireless monitoring, it is possible to detect the correlation between deviating vital parameters and subsequent postoperative complications. A prospective observational study will take place on general surgical wards with the enrolment of 500 patients in two different hospitals. Physiological parameters will be recorded for 96 hours postoperative. Data is collected preoperative, peroperative and postoperative in up to 6 months for data analyzing.
