Steadysense -Early Detection of Postoperative Infections Through Continuous Temperature Measurement
The goal of this observational study is to review whether postoperative infections can be detected earlier by a continuous measurement of body temperature of patients compared to single daily measurements. Within 25 weeks 100 patients, which underwent visceral surgery less than 48h ago, will be included. A patch (Steadytemp ®) will be attached to participants, continuously measuring the body temperature. In addition infection parameters and medication of the participants will be documented.
