简要总结
The Critical View of Safety (CVS) is universally recommended to prevent bile duct injuries in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, CVS is underutilized and bile duct injuries are not decreasing. The CVS-Notifier SaMD (Software as a Medical Device) reminds surgeons to verify the CVS before dividing the cystic duct, as recommended by guidelines. It is hypothesized that this systematic and timely reminder could improve the implementation of CVS without disturbing surgical workflows.
详细描述
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard approach for the surgical removal of the gallbladder. However, between 0.3 and 1.5% of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy experience a bile duct injury (BDI). This major complication translates into a threefold increase in mortality at 1 year, frequent medico-legal litigations, and an annual cost of about 1 billion dollars in the USA alone.
The visual perceptual illusion causing major BDIs can be prevented by implementing the Critical View of Safety (CVS). CVS consists of the clearance of the hepatocystic triangle from fat and connective tissue, the division of the lower part of the gallbladder from its liver bed, and ensuring that only two tubular structures-the cystic duct and the cystic artery-connected to the gallbladder are visible. Unfortunately, CVS implementation in surgical practices is as low as 9% and, in turn, BDIs do not decrease.
To improve the implementation of the CVS, multi-society consensus guidelines recommend to time-out to confirm CVS achievement before dividing cystic structures. A large quality improvement study demonstrated that a short time-out to recall CVS principles significantly increases CVS implementation rates. However, the implementation of the time-out and CVS decreases over time.
The CVS-Notifier SaMD reminds surgeons to time-out to verify the CVS before the division of the cystic duct. Such a systematic intraoperative reminder to implement best practices could help consistently perform safe laparoscopic cholecystectomies.
This first-in-human, exploratory study aims at evaluating the safety, usability, and potential impact of the CVS-Notifier SaMD in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
