Measurement of Physical Activity in the First Days After Thoracic Surgery

Objective measurement of physical activity has several advantages compared to declarative measures: exemption from memory bias and desirability bias, more precise evaluation, taken into account activities of low intensity, measurement of physical activity and sedentariness profiles (number and duration of periods of activity, number of breaks in sedentary lifestyles).

The aim of this study is to assess the early postoperative mobility of patients who have undergone pulmonary excision by thoracoscopy or robot surgery using ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer. This assessment will serve as a reference element for further studies.
