Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Estimated Blood Lossfrom the start of surgery to the end of surgery, up to 6 hours

Estimated blood loss in milliliters per hour is calculated by subtracting the volume of total irrigation used during the case from the total amount of fluid in the suction canister at the end of surgery and dividing by surgical time in hours.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Anesthesiologist Numeric Rating Scale (ANRS)at the end of surgery (up to 6 hours)

The anesthesiologist numeric rating scale is to rate the ease of the anesthesia technique ranging from 0 to 10 (10 is best, 0 is worst).

Surgeon's Numeric Rating Scale (SNRS)at the end of surgery (up to 6 hours)

The surgeon's numeric rating scale(SNRS)is to rate the surgical conditions (mucosal bleeding and visibility) on a scale ranging from 0 to 10, with 0 defined as cadaveric conditions and 10 as severe bleeding requiring constant suction.
