Abstract:
Surgical workflow is a major component of successful surgery, and intraoperative distractions (IDs) within the operating room (OR) can have a major adverse impact on outcomes. IDs could increase surgeons' mental fatigue, increase stress, and reduce overall performance. However, more studies are needed to classify and quantify all possible distractions during surgery and their sources. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the quantity and type of IDs during different types of surgical procedures.
