Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
post procedure O-arm spin or postoperative CT scans uploaded in DICOM format by the participating centres and classified based on the Gertzbein-Robbins scaleTimepoint: post procedure O-arm spin or postoperative CT scans uploaded in DICOM format by the participating centres and classified based on the Gertzbein-Robbins scale

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
B) Secondary Outcomes 1. Safety: a. Incidence of intraoperative complications (e.g., robotic system errors, hardware-related issues, facet violation etc.) b. Postoperative complications (e.g., neurological, vascular, or infection-related events etc.) 2. Operative Parameters: Estimated blood loss 3. Efficiency: a. Number of attempts per screw b. Registration time - from start to completion of registration c. Planning time - time required for planning of screws. d. Screw insertion time - from docking of the robotic arm to the screw placement completion. e. Total procedure time - from start of registration to screw placement completion 4. Radiation exposure : Measured in mSv Timepoint: post procedure O-arm spin or postoperative CT scans uploaded in DICOM format by the participating centres and classified based on the Gertzbein-Robbins scale
