Quantifying Activity Using Wireless Wearable Technology

Completed

Conditions studied: Activity, Motor, Sleep, Delirium

In brief

Wireless wearable devices (WWD) have been shown to be an effective means to measure patient activity and sleep-wake cycles in the ICU. However, no current studies involving WWD have demonstrated the ability of these devices to measure adverse outcomes, including delirium in critically ill patients. This study is unique because the investigators will implement monitoring with the WWD prior to extubation in the ICU to correctly measure first mobilization, as well as capture quality of sleep and episodes of delirium for the first five postoperative days.
