About this trial
This study will focus on orthopedic surgery patients from high-altitude regions, utilizing smart wearables and monitoring tools to gather perioperative data, including heart rate, oxygen saturation, sleep quality, stress levels, and other relevant metrics. Regular follow-ups will assess recovery and complications, in addition to collecting medical records, lab results, imaging data, and other pertinent records. The ultimate goal is to establish a comprehensive follow-up cohort of orthopedic surgery patients from high-altitude areas.
