Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to analyze Fitbit data to predict infection after surgery for complicated appendicitis and the effect this prediction has on clinician decision making.

Primary Outcome

Participant Fitbit data metrics (particularly PA, HR, Sleep) will be extracted from the app and analyzed using Machine Learning methods to eventually develop an algorithm to predict infection during the postoperative recovery period.
