Outcome quality assessment by surgical process compliance measures in laparoscopic surgery

作者：

Highlights：

• We assess the relation of processes and outcome quality for surgical processes.

• The assessment is performed on 450 training tasks in laparoscopic surgery.

• There is a strong correlation between best practice processes and training outcome.
