Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The 'gentle' handling of tissue (i.e., 'respect for tissue') is a fundamental aspect of surgical performance and learning. To date, there have been no methodological assessments that quantitatively measure 'gentleness.' Therefore, the aims of this study were (1) to propose a novel metric for gentle surgical maneuvers, (2) to validate the feasibility of this methodology, and (3) to explore safer surgical techniques through this methodology. METHODS:Using surgical video-based motion software, the motion of the carotid artery around plaque was analyzed and quantified during a carotid endarterectomy. Kinematic parameters (minimum and maximum acceleration, and maximum and mean velocity) were compared among the surgical tasks and techniques, as well as between novice and expert surgeons. RESULTS:The surgical tasks of dissecting the common carotid artery, passing the proximal vessel loops, and ligating vessels showed the highest absolute values of kinematic parameters. Dissections perpendicular to the line of the internal carotid artery tended to show higher kinematic parameters than those in the parallel direction, with blunt dissections typically higher than sharp dissections. The kinematic parameters of novice surgeons were significantly higher than those of experts, and receiver operating curve analysis showed a strong discriminative power. CONCLUSION:This study shows that tissue motion parameters could be a novel and feasible surrogate marker for the objective assessment on the 'gentleness' of surgical performance. Future studies should be performed to further elucidate the relationship on the direct correlation between tissue kinematic data and clinical outcomes or surgical adverse events.
