Abstract
BACKGROUND: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) following cardiac valvular surgery are characterized by high morbidity, mortality, and economic cost. This study leverages wearable technology and machine learning algorithms to preoperatively identify high-risk individuals, thereby enhancing clinical decision-making for the mitigation of PPCs.
