Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The objective of this study is to scientifically evaluate the effectiveness of the AI-based surgical navigation system "Eureka" in supporting intraoperative recognition of organ injury and preventing postoperative complications. This will be achieved by analyzing laparoscopic surgical videos in which organ injury previously occurred, and conducting a multi-reviewer assessment by experienced surgeons.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Success rate of organ injury recognition in each video of organ injury cases in the normal video group (N group) and the Eureka video group (E group).

Key secondary outcomes

1 Concordance and time difference between the organ injury timing identified by video reviewers and the actual timecode of organ injury in each organ injury video from the N group and E group.

2 True negative rate (accuracy of correct no injury judgments) in non-injury videos from the N group and E group, as determined by reviewers.
