Brief Summary

The use of an ORC sheet around a wound edge protector decreased an interruption in the operation as a result of blood oozing from the surface of the access port wound and the number of wound edge hemostatic procedures upon wound closure. Although the application of ORC did not affect rates of wound complications, major intraoperative hemorrhage, conversion to thoracotomy, and postoperative mortality, it improved the operation time.
