Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

perioperative morbidity

complications classified by Clavien-Dindo

Time frame
5 years
2

patient mortality rate

during in-hospital stay, 30 and 90 days postoperatively

Time frame
5 years
3

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."
