Asystolic cardiac arrest during balloon insufflation for endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy.

abstract：PURPOSE:To create a protocol for providing real-time operating room (OR) cost feedback to surgeons. We hypothesize that this protocol will reduce costs in a responsible way without sacrificing quality of care. METHODS:All OR costs were obtained and recorded for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and laparoscopic donor...
