Introduction: Outcome assessments after surgery for degenerative lumbar disorders (DLDs) rely on subjective patient-reported outcomes (PROMs). New objective functional capacity tests, like the smartphone-based 6-min walking test (6WT), have been introduced but presumably also do not reflect the patient's real-life functional performance. Research question: Pilot study to analyze changes in smartphone-based real-life activity data for physical performance outcome in patients undergoing surgery for DLD. Material and methods: Prospective observational study of DLD patients. Objective functional capacity and subjective outcomes were measured using 6WT and PROMs. Real-life physical performance data were acquired retrospectively using Apple iPhone Health data and compared against objective capacity and subjective outcomes. Results: Eight patients (mean 46 years, 62% male) provided 286.858 smartphone mile counts. PROMs and physical capacity (6WT) significantly improved postoperatively. 6WT results increased from 352m pre-to 555/567m at 6/12 weeks postoperatively (p = 0.03). For physical performance a linear mixed effect models showed an increase in daily distance in the first 4 months after surgery (slope +0.178; p |
