Cusum analysis for learning curve of videothoracoscopic lobectomy
BACKGROUND Video assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy has a demanding learning curve due to its technical complexity and risk of uncontrollable bleeding. We investigated the case number required for gaining technical proficiency by applying cumulative sum analysis on initial VATS lobectomy operations of a single surgeon. METHODS CALGB definition was used for the definition of VATS lobectom...
متن کاملVideothoracoscopic lobectomy: first year of experience in a single center
Methods From April 2012 to date, we performed 42 completely thoracoscopic lobectomies (non rib-spreading) with anterior approach to the pulmonary hilum. Clinical stages I were included and T3 or T4 tumors, central tumors, cN1-N2, previous ipsilateral thoracotomy were excluded. Whenever possible, we have obtained a preoperative diagnosis with CT-guided needle biopsy (n = 35, 83%); otherwise lobe...
متن کاملThe learning curve for minimally invasive Oxford phase 3 unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: cumulative summation test for learning curve (LC-CUSUM)
BACKGROUND The minimally invasive Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a demanding procedure but has many advantages compared with total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this observational study was to investigate the learning curve of one experienced surgeon introducing minimally invasive Oxford phase 3 UKA into his routine clinical practice. METHODS The first 50 consecutive...
متن کاملThe Learning Curve of Transareola Single-site Laparoendoscopic Thyroidectomy: CUSUM Analysis of a Single Surgeon’s Experience
BACKGROUND Transareola single-site laparoendoscopic thyroidectomy (TASSET) is a rapidly advancing minimally invasive procedure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the learning curve for TASSET. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Forty-five consecutive patients were prospectively divided into group 1 (initial phase), group 2 (intermediate phase), and group 3 (advanced phase) according to their surgic...
متن کاملIs the learning curve for video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy affected by prior experience in open lobectomy?
A best evidence topic was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed is the learning curve for video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy affected by prior experience in open lobectomy? Two hundred and two studies were identified of which seven presented the best evidence on the topic. The authors, date, journal, country of publication, study type, participating surge...
