Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of procedures performed entirely using the telemanipulator [end of study: 3 months]
- Number of procedures where the surgeon had to switch to manual mode or dedock the device [end of study: 3 months]
- If telemanipulator remained stable during procedure [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
Yes/no
- Time of procedure [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
- Docking time [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
time between docking of device and use of gamepad
- Time taken to track kidney stones [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
- Time taken for complete exploration of renal cavities [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
- Laser fragmentation time [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
- Speed of fragmentation [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
mm3/minute
- Any joint pain strain experienced by the surgeon before and after intervention [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
binary yes/no
- Satisfaction of surgeon in using the device [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
Custom-made questionnaire with 3 sections measuring: ease of use, ergonomics in exploration of renal cavities and stability during fragmentation of laser
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Describe the rate of intra-operative complications during procedure [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
- Describe the rate of intra-operative complications [1 month]
- Integrity of the ureroscope at the end of the procedure [end of procedure; less than 2 hours]
binary yes/no
