Textbook Outcomes
Classical assessments, focused solely on mortality and morbidity, are increasingly considered insufficient. A more comprehensive approach, using composite measures, offers a more accurate evaluation, providing a multidimensional view and patient-centred healthcare appraisal. The textbook outcome (TO) is the most used objective composite measure to compare surgical quality across centres
