The goal of this observational study is to validate physical activity algorithms in post-operative populations through raw accelerometer data collection using the ADI Study Watch 4.5 while in an in-patient setting. The secondary objective of the study is to collect skin temperature, photoplethysmography [PPG], Bioimpedance Analysis [BIA], heart rate [HR], SpO2, and electrodermal activity [EDA] using the ADI Study Watch 4.5. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Can a wearable physical activity monitoring device assess patients' activity levels with higher accuracy and precision compared to traditional physical activity monitoring methods during the post-operative period?
• Do wearable devices placed on different body regions perform similarly in tracking physical activity during the post-operative period?
• Do post-operative physical activity monitoring algorithms improve patient compliance, accelerate recovery, and reduce hospital stay duration?
• Analysis of the activity tracking performance of a consumer device (Apple Watch) in patients after cardiac and thoracic surgery.

Participants After obtaining ethical approval, individuals meeting the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study at BAİBÜ Izzet Baysal Training and Research Hospital. After providing participants with information about the study, they will be asked to sign an informed consent form. The total sample size for the preliminary t-test analysis was determined to be 42 with an alpha of 0.05, a power of 0.80, and a medium effect size using the G*Power (ver. 3.1.9.7) program. Anticipating a 40% drop-out rate, 60 individuals will be included in the study. To determine the final sample size, a power analysis will be performed using data obtained from the study.

Assessment Methods The demographic information of the participants will be collected using the Participant Identification Form. Pre-operative physical condition will be evaluated with the ASA Physical Status Classification System, skin color with the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale, pain level while resting, coughing, and moving will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), fatigue and anxiety with VAS, functional walking capacity with the 6-Minute Walk Test, physical activity level with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, fear of movement with the TAMPA Scale of Kinesiophobia, and quality of life with the SF-36 Short Form.

The evaluation forms applied to the participants consist of the following sections:

1. Participant Identification Form 2. ASA Score 3. Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale 4. Symptoms VAS (0-10) 5. Six-Minute Walk Test 6. International Physical Activity Questionnaire 7. TAMPA Scale of Kinesiophobia

1. Participant Identification Questions

   In the questionnaire, the following questions will be asked to determine the characteristics of the participants:

   Name-Surname, Gender, Date of Birth, Height, Weight Type of surgery, Arm length, Step length, Wrist circumference, Smoking: Participants will be asked whether they smoke, and the data will be recorded in pack-years. Educational level: After verbally asking participants about their educational level, it will be recorded as illiterate, primary school, middle school, high school, or university. Employment status: Participants' occupations will be asked verbally and recorded as housewife, employed, or retired. Medical history: Participants will be asked whether they have any chronic illnesses or have undergone surgery before. Medications: Participants will be asked whether they take any medications regularly, and the data will be recorded.

2. ASA Physical Status Classification System:

   The ASA system classifies patients' physical conditions before surgery as follows:

   ASA 1: A healthy and normal person with no disease or systemic disorder other than a surgical pathology that does not cause systemic dysfunction.

   ASA 2: A person with a systemic disorder caused by a surgical condition or a disease such as mild emphysema, chronic bronchitis, diabetes, hypertension, or anemia.

   ASA 3: A person with a disease that limits activity but is not incapacitating, such as heart failure, a previous myocardial infarction, hypovolemia, advanced diabetes, or limited lung function.

   ASA 4: A person with a disease, such as respiratory disease, kidney or liver failure, that severely impairs physical ability and poses a constant threat to life.

   ASA 5: A moribund person not expected to survive 24 hours without surgery. ASA 6: This group includes brain-dead patients who are suitable for organ donation.

3. Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale:

   Participants' skin types will be categorized into six groups, from very fair (skin type I) to very dark (skin type VI), according to the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale, which is commonly used in the literature to determine skin type. Skin type is characterized by general appearance, eye color, hair type and color, etc.

   Type I - Very fair skin, sensitive to the sun, light eye color (blue/green), blonde or light brown hair.

   Type II - Fair skin, light brown or brown hair, light-colored eyes. Type III - Fair to wheatish skin, light or dark eyes, brown or black hair. Type IV - Wheatish skin, dark eyes (brown/black), brown or black hair. Type V - Dark brown skin, dark (black) eyes, black hair. Type VI - Very dark skin (almost black), black eyes, black hair.

4. Visual Analog Scale (VAS):

   Pain levels will be assessed using the VAS. According to the VAS, pain severity is generally rated on a 0-10 cm scale, with "no pain" being 0 and "the worst pain imaginable" being 10. Pain severity categories are:

   <3: mild pain, 3-6: moderate pain, 6: severe pain.

5. Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT):

   As an easily applicable and objective assessment, the 6MWT is the most widely used cardiopulmonary exercise test. Participants are asked to walk the longest possible distance in a straight corridor marked at 30 meters during six minutes. Before and after the test, heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation (SpO2) will be measured; dyspnea will be recorded using the Modified Borg Scale. The distance walked in six minutes will be noted in meters. A distance of less than 300 meters is associated with higher mortality. The normal range for healthy individuals is between 500 and 700 meters. The expected 6MWT distance will be calculated using the following formulas:

   Male: (7.57 X heightcm) - (5.02 X age) - (1.76 X weightkg) - 309 Female: (2.11 X heightcm) - (2.29 X weightkg) - (5.78 X age) + 667

6. International Physical Activity Questionnaire (Short Form):

   Developed by Craig in 2003 to assess physical activity levels in adults, the reliability and validity of this questionnaire were tested by Sağlam et al. in 2010. It assesses the types of physical activity individuals have performed in the past seven days and the time spent on each activity. It consists of seven questions, and the total score is calculated by multiplying the duration (minutes) and frequency (days) of moderate and vigorous activities. Patients are classified as inactive (<600 MET min/week), moderately active (600-3000 MET min/week), or active (>3000 kcal/min).

7. TAMPA Scale of Kinesiophobia:

This is a 17-item self-report scale developed to measure fear of movement. Scores range from 17 to 68. Higher scores indicate greater fear of movement, while lower scores suggest minimal fear.

Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will wear the sensors for 5 hours after discharge from the ward. During this time, they are free to engage in natural activities. During data collection, the ADI Study Watch 4.5 will be worn on the left wrist, arm, and chest, the Apple Watch 8 will be worn on the right arm, and the Axivity AX6 on the ankle.

Statistics Descriptive statistics will be presented as mean and standard deviation for numerical variables or median and minimum-maximum values. Categorical variables will be described as numbers and percentages. The Shapiro-Wilk test will be used to assess normality. An independent t-test will be used to compare two groups when assumptions are met, and the Mann-Whitney U test will be used when assumptions are not met. Correlations between parameters will be examined using Spearman or Pearson correlation analysis, depending on normality. Chi-square tests will be used to examine differences between categorical variables. The significance level will be set at p<0.05. Data analysis will be performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) v.20.
