Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • perioperative morbidity

    complications classified by Clavien-Dindo

    5 years

  • patient mortality rate

    during in-hospital stay, 30 and 90 days postoperatively

    5 years

  • 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."

    5 years

  • 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

    5 years

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • patient characteristics

    5 years

  • patient laboratory parameters

    5 years

  • surgical expertise

    5 years

  • practical resident training

    5 years

  • robotic bedside assistance

    5 years
