Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
perioperative morbidity
complications classified by Clavien-Dindo
patient mortality rate
during in-hospital stay, 30 and 90 days postoperatively
intraoperative workload
The questionnaire NASA Task Load Index consists of 6 quesions addressing the individual overall workload. The question of level of procedure's difficulty is used to analyse the overall workload additionally referring to "Lowndes BR, Forsyth KL, Blocker RC, Dean PG, Truty MJ, Heller SF, Blackmon S, Hallbeck MS, Nelson H. NASA-TLX Assessment of Surgeon Workload Variation Across Specialties. Ann Surg. 2020 Apr;271(4):686-692. doi: 10.1097/SLA.0000000000003058. PMID: 30247331."
basic robotic competence
Evaluation of the intraoperative performance of residents and specialists by the robotic expert using O-SCORE referring to doi:10.1097/ACM.0b013e3182677805. PMID: 22914526
Secondary outcomes
patient characteristics
age, sex, BMI, preexisting illnesses and diseases
patient laboratory parameters
pre- and postoperatively: concentration of hemoglobin and tsh, crp value, estimated glomerular filtration rate, concentration of albumin, prothrombin time
surgical expertise
analysis of experience for open, laparoscopic and robotic procedures by counting numbers of procedures and surgical practice in years
practical resident training
percentage of intraoperative procedural steps performed by the assisting surgeon
