A T-shirt that monitors a patient’s vital signs after urological surgery for cancer could help people return from hospital sooner to recover at home.
The device, worn for around two weeks under clothing for three-hour windows each day, enabled patients to feel safer and more reassured than a control group in a pilot study of 70 individuals.
The results were presented at the European Association of Urology Congress in Madrid, Spain, in March.
