Background: The proliferation of wearable technology presents a novel opportunity for perioperative activity monitoring; however, the association between perioperative activity level and readmission remains underexplored. This study sought to determine whether physical activity data captured by wearable technology before and after colorectal surgery can be used to predict 30-day readmission. Methods: In this prospective observational cohort study of adults undergoing elective major colorectal surgery (January 2018 to February 2019) at a single institution, participants wore an activity monitor 30 days before and after surgery. The primary outcome was return to baseline percentage, defined as step count on the day before discharge as a percentage of mean preoperative daily step count, among readmitted and non-readmitted patients. Results: 94 patients had sufficient data available for analysis, of which 16 patients (17.0%) were readmitted within 30 days following discharge. Readmitted patients achieved a lower return to baseline percentage compared to patients who were not readmitted (median 15.1% vs. 31.8%; P = 0.004). On multivariable analysis adjusting for readmission risk and hospital length of stay, an absolute increase of 10% in return to baseline percentage was associated with a 40% decreased risk of 30-day readmission (odds ratio 0.60; P = 0.02). Analysis of the receiver operating characteristic curve identified 28.9% as an optimal return to baseline percent threshold for predicting readmission. Conclusions: Achieving a higher percentage of an individual's preoperative baseline activity level on the day prior to discharge after major colorectal surgery is associated with decreased risk of 30-day hospital readmission.
