Home-Based Telemonitoring Program for Functional Recovery and Symptoms in Cancer patients Undergoing Abdominal Surgery

This phase III trial compares a home-based telemonitoring program that collects symptom and daily step information to surgeon only care in improving recovery and stopping complications within 30 days after surgery in patients with gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or gynecologic cancer who are scheduled to undergo abdominal surgery. This may help doctors and nurses find and treat problems early, which may improve the patient's recovery and lower the number of complications after surgery.
