Study Summary

This trial will develop a device to help predict when a patient will have a bowel movement, so that they can be better prepared for it.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18 to 100 who are scheduled for elective intestinal resection surgery. They must be able to have a prototype device applied to their abdomen, so those with certain conditions like fistulas, stomas, or drains cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the Previs Device which noninvasively records and analyzes intestinal sounds to predict postoperative ileus. Participants will use the device and complete daily assessments until discharge from the hospital.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves a noninvasive monitoring device rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, there may be discomfort or skin irritation where the device attaches to the abdominal wall.
