About

Dr. Titus Jackson is a leading investigator in surgical outcomes and perioperative medicine, with a particular focus on how objective mobility data can transform patient recovery. His most influential work, the 2019 study "Association of Wearable Activity Monitors With Assessment of Daily Ambulation and Length of Stay Among Patients Undergoing Major Surgery," has garnered over 150 citations and is widely recognized as a foundational paper in the field. This research demonstrated that wearable activity monitors can reliably quantify postoperative ambulation, revealing a direct link between daily step counts and reduced length of stay. By providing the first robust evidence that objective, continuous mobility tracking predicts clinical outcomes better than subjective assessments, Dr. Jackson’s work has paved the way for integrating consumer-grade wearables into standard surgical care pathways. His contributions are helping to shift postoperative monitoring from anecdotal observation to data-driven precision, offering hospitals a practical tool to identify at-risk patients early and tailor recovery protocols. Dr. Jackson’s research continues to shape how clinicians understand and optimize the critical role of early mobilization in major surgery.
