Walking After Surgery to Improve Recovery and Outcomes After Surgery, AIRTECH Study
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Summary
This clinical trial evaluates the relationship between walking and sleeping habits and surgical outcomes in patients with lung cancer. Early walking after surgery is associated with decreased or less severe complications. Learning about how much patients walk may be important in improving outcomes after surgery. Information gained from this trial may help researchers develop interventions to improve outcomes after surgery and improve overall quality of life after surgery in patients with lung cancer.
