Key result
A technical error rating tool for laparoscopic surgery demonstrated high inter-rater reliability for errors (ICC 0.90) and correlated significantly with OSATS scores (rs = -0.75 to -0.40).

Does the proposed error rating tool allow objective and reliable assessment of operative performance in laparoscopic gastric bypass procedures?
The proposed error rating tool provides an objective and reliable assessment of operative performance in laparoscopic gastric bypass procedures.
Bonrath et al. (2013) conducted an observational in Laparoscopic surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) (n=25). Technical error rating tool vs. OSATS global rating scale was evaluated on Incidence of errors and of injuries (events). A technical error rating tool for laparoscopic surgery demonstrated high inter-rater reliability for errors (ICC 0.90) and correlated significantly with OSATS scores (rs = -0.75 to -0.40).
